Lucas Stark is a research scientist at the Hector Research Institute of Education Sciences and Psychology and PhD student in the doctoral programme “Hector Core Courses”.
His research interest revolves around critical thinking about knowledge. In today’s society, he think it is crucial for citizens to be able to critically evaluate data and information to make evidence-based decisions. Therefore, he will concentrate on statistical literacy and epistemic beliefs in my dissertation. It is his goal to promote these constructs within a course development for the Hector Children's Academy Program.
His dissertation project already links to different fields. Therefore he is also part of LEAD.
