Abstract
This project explores how reading and writing function as learning tools in adolescents. The internship will examine the cognitive and socioemotional processes involved when students use literacy-based tasks to build knowledge about the world or themselves, and will contribute to the design of a small-scale study addressing gaps in educational science. The work will include a focused literature review, the development or adaptation of reading–writing tasks and instruments, and a short pilot with secondary or university students.
