She has attended nine of them as guest speaker, and in five she has sat on the Scientific/Organising Committee reviewing and assessing the submissions.

She has taken part in seven research projects in competitive calls at both national and regional level (R&D&i), and in two European key action projects (KA3 and KA104), as a member of the Recognised Research Group (GIR) “Procesos, espacios y prácticas educativas” [Processes, spaces and educational practices] (since 2007), besides actively taking part in other research institutes, networks and groups.

She has undertaken three predoctoral stays (two of them abroad – Manchester University and Coimbra University-, three months) and two international postdoctoral sojourns, with particular emphasis on the one involving the Oxford Internet Institute (two months), on a fellowship awarded through a competitive tender called by the British Academy.

She has collaborated as an external reviewer and as a member of the editorial team with seven international journals, almost all of which have a high quality index.

Currently (since 2014), she holds the position of Secretary of the Department of Theory and History of Education at Salamanca University.
