Soroor Rostami
PhD Research Fellow
I am currently working as a PhD Research Fellow at the Department of Education, Faculty of Humanities and Education, at the University of Agder (UiA). I started my PhD at UiA in 2021.
My PhD project is linked to the program of Democratic Mobilization (DEMO). DEMO is intended to have an umbrella function over different points of view and varied research that sheds light on current research and development within the theme «democracy».
In my PhD project, I intend to develop and validate the Democratic Education Scale from immigrant students’ point of view. Then, I am going to present a model of the interrelationship among democratic education, racist victimization, and socio-emotional well-being using a quantitative method. Finally, I attempt to identify the main strategies Norwegian teachers implement to improve democratic education and accordingly reduce racism and enhance their socio-emotional well-being.
