معرفی
Philippe Snauwaert is a researcher at the Research Institute in Didactic and Education at the University of Namur (UNamur), where he has been actively involved in educational research since the 1980s. His work spans chemistry education, semiotics in science, teacher training, and student orientation to higher education. He holds a Doctor of Science degree from UNamur and continues to lead and contribute to significant research projects.
- Doctor of Science, University of Namur, 1992
His research interests lie at the intersection of science education and linguistic-semiotic analysis, particularly in how students interpret chemical symbols and solve stoichiometry problems. He investigates the evolution of chemical language and the use of visual tools like slowmation to teach dynamic chemical processes. His work also extends to reflective teaching practices and collaborative training for educators.
The recent publications and projects highlight a strong trend toward improving science education through innovative didactic methods, teacher development, and curriculum analysis. His work increasingly integrates interdisciplinary approaches, especially in animal welfare education and educational transitions from secondary to higher education.
Philippe Snauwaert has not received any explicitly mentioned scientific awards in the provided text.
He has supervised or collaborated on research with several scholars and students, though specific advisees are not listed. He has been involved in multiple research grants and projects, including continuous training initiatives and university certificate programs in animal welfare. His leadership roles in projects like CUBEA and Salle des Pros demonstrate sustained engagement in educational innovation and professional development.
He is actively involved in research teams such as the Department of Education and Technology and collaborates within networks focused on science didactics, including ARDiST. His work is often conducted in collaboration with researchers like Dehon J., Biemar S., Pondeville S., and Diederich C.
