Editorial for the December issue of the online journal Indagatio Didactica

Abstract

It is with great pleasure that the editorial team of the journal Indagatio Didactica presents its latest edition. We mark the end of the year with the careful publication of 19 scientific articles that reflect the diversity and depth of research that has been carried out in the field of Education. In an overview of this issue, the diverse contribution of authors from the Portuguese-Brazilian community stands out, with 11 articles originating from Brazil and eight from Portugal, offering different perspectives on educational practices in cultural contexts that cross the Atlantic. When we explore the scientific areas, the diversity is evident: eight articles address issues in the field of Science, three delve into the complexities of Maths, one article focuses on issues of teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language, three articles explore professional training, in the areas of Psychology and Nursing, and four are interdisciplinary in nature. The plurality of educational levels involved in the studies is equally expressive, from the initial years of Primary Education (Brazil)/Basic Education (Portugal), through Secondary Education/Secondary Education, to Higher Education, including professional training in the areas of teaching, psychology and nursing. As such, each article offers a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities at different stages of the educational journey. The "Curriculum Development and Didactics" section continues to be the one that draws the most attention.
