Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Epistemology
  • Pedagogy
  • Social science

His primary areas of study are Pedagogy, Knowledge building, Intentional learning, Mathematics education and Cognitive psychology. His Pedagogy research integrates issues from Epistemology and Control. Knowledge building is a subfield of Knowledge management that he investigates.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Educational technology, Focus and Zone of proximal development in addition to Intentional learning. His Mathematics education research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Salient, Perception and Agency. His study looks at the relationship between Cognitive psychology and topics such as Cognitive development, which overlap with Composition and Educational research.

His most cited work include:

  • The psychology of written composition (1925 citations)
  • Computer Support for Knowledge-Building Communities (1836 citations)
  • Education and Mind in the Knowledge Age (1025 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Knowledge building, Knowledge management, Pedagogy, Mathematics education and Epistemology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Carl Bereiter examines in his Knowledge building study include Knowledge economy, Creative work and Knowledge creation. His research ties Educational technology and Knowledge management together.

His studies link Intentional learning with Pedagogy. His work deals with themes such as Science education, Philosophy of education, Learning sciences and Learning theory, which intersect with Epistemology. His Teaching method research includes themes of Cognitive psychology and Reading.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Knowledge building (27.03%)
  • Knowledge management (22.97%)
  • Pedagogy (19.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • Knowledge building (27.03%)
  • Knowledge management (22.97%)
  • Engineering ethics (8.11%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Knowledge building, Knowledge management, Engineering ethics, Knowledge creation and Work. His Knowledge building study is concerned with the larger field of Pedagogy. His studies in Pedagogy integrate themes in fields like Mathematics education, Selection and Discourse analysis.

His Knowledge management study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Educational technology and Self-organization. His biological study deals with issues like Domain knowledge, which deal with fields such as Research design, Descriptive knowledge and Body of knowledge. Carl Bereiter interconnects Knowledge level and Education theory in the investigation of issues within Control.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Smart technology for self-organizing processes (129 citations)
  • A Brief History of Knowledge Building (93 citations)
  • The Cambridge Handbook of the Learning Sciences: Knowledge Building and Knowledge Creation (84 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Epistemology
  • Social science
  • Pedagogy

His scientific interests lie mostly in Knowledge building, Knowledge management, Learning sciences, Control and Knowledge integration. His Knowledge building research is within the category of Pedagogy. His study in the field of Group work is also linked to topics like Computer-mediated communication.

His Learning sciences research incorporates themes from Group cognition, 21st century skills and Problem-based learning. His Control research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Knowledge level, Cognitive science, Self-organization and Behavioural sciences. His work in Knowledge integration covers topics such as Personal knowledge management which are related to areas like Knowledge value chain, Body of knowledge, Procedural knowledge, Descriptive knowledge and Collaborative learning.
