Research focus areas

The LACTH covers 4 areas of research:

• Design: This area aims to highlight the different temporal regimes that are mobilised within the design process (the tensions maintained between the categories of present, past and future) and to question the links between contemporaneity, anachrony and polychrony.
• Territory: This field studies the question of territorial scale and the role of architecture in shaping the city.
• History: This field explores twentieth-century architecture using methods that reveal the full complexity of the situations and objects studied.
• Materiality: Research in this field focuses on the reality of the built environment, and the link between theoretical knowledge and construction practices (programmes under construction).

Research focus areas:

• Scientific knowledge: nature, circulation, evolution: this area aims to shed light on the dynamics of scientific knowledge (within the historical, academic and public spheres), as well as the production of tools and/or artifacts that foster its understanding and construction. Research in this area is closely linked to the epistemology of the disciplines concerned.

• Spupil and student activities: this area of research, which focuses on the individual ‘learner’, includes the study of the difficulties they encounter and strategies during ‘key’ transitions (CM2/6th grade, 3rd grade/2nd grade, Lycée/University), and more broadly the study of pupils’ and students’ activities during didactic transactions.

• Practices and training of science teachers and educators: this area focuses on the practices of teachers (from primary to higher education) and educators in specific subject areas in order to better understand the driving forces and possible levers.
