Researcher Toni Badia Garganté's R&I work focuses on the generation of knowledge that can be applied to improve educational institutions' teaching and learning processes, principally at primary and secondary school level.  He has two main research interests: teacher learning, and improving learning through the use of technology. Currently, the first subject area is being developed on the basis of the theoretical construct of “teacher identity”, in the framework of the dialogical self theory. The second subject area focuses on the use of specific technological tools in educational practice, and their impact on specific teaching and learning processes, particularly on the development of basic skills, such as information skills, the ability to learn to cooperate, and learning to learn.
