Two fully-funded PhD positions for 4 years are offered as part of the research project BLIS: Belgian literature in secondary education: developing citizenship, intercultural competencies and critical literacy.Recent research, including PISA 2023, shows the sharp decline in critical literacy among Flemish students. This project aims to develop didactic methods and modules for teaching critical literacy, intercultural competencies and citizenship formation in the last two years of Flemish secondary education, for both French and Dutch. It is based on previous research that has shown the effectiveness of literary texts and literature education in achieving these educational goals. The concrete teaching modules will be developed around Belgian literature, but the research-based didactic methods will be valid for other contexts as well. One project (P1) investigates the possibility and methods of cross-linguistic collaboration (Dutch-French) to promote critical literacy and intercultural competencies through the use of Belgian literature. The second project (P2) focuses on the use of literary texts in civic education, again with a specific focus on Belgian literature. As a doctoral researcher, you design didactic methods, elaborate concrete teaching material, and conduct a pilot study in secondary schools in Flanders. To do so, you work together with partners from the field. You make your results practical and communicate them so that teachers can use them. You will work on a dissertation, write scientific articles and present your research at conferences. You work under the supervision of professors Elke Brems, Elke D'hoker and Reine Meylaerts.For the Centre for Literature and Education of the Faculty of Literature at KU Leuven, we are looking for two doctoral fellows.You contribute to the work of the research team and the activities of the research group, especially the Centre for Literature and Education. The CLO aims to promote the importance of literature and literary reading in education. It aims to bring together, further develop and make widely available knowledge on quality literary education. We offertwo fully-funded, full-time PhD scholarships at the Faculty of Arts of KU Leuven. The project runs for four years and starts on 1 November 2024.-Your contract is for 2 years, to be renewed for a further 2 years, pending positive evaluation-You follow a doctoral programme in which you develop academic and non-academic skills-You have a budget to participate in international conferences, summer schools, workshops, etc.-You will be part of a dynamic group of researchers -Your research is socially oriented: you will visit schools and consult with teachers and pupils.
