TeWiPrax
In the TeWiPrax project, researchers and teachers from the group „Sprachförderung/Mehrsprachigkeit“ of the “Campusschulen” program collaboratively develop and test materials that support secondary school students in understanding scientific texts. A particular focus is on academic and subject-specific vocabulary.
LeITEr
Within the LeITEr project, a school-based intervention for fourth and fifth graders is being developed and evaluated that combines the teaching of reading strategies with strategies for regulating emotions and motivation.
LEECHI
The aim of the project is to better understand how information is distributed in the children’s naturalistic environment and sampled by young children from their first-person perspective with modern technologies including wearable devices and deep learning models.
Wurmloch
The idea of the ‘wormhole’ is often used in science fiction to visualise different dimensions of a plot.
In this pilot study with pre-school and primary school children, we try to transfer this idea to the development of knowledge of meaning.
For example, how do environmental changes relate to the development of semantic knowledge?
WieSeL
The WieSeL project is concerned with teachers’ self-regulation skills. It focuses on the question of which aspects of teachers’ professional competence support the promotion of self-regulation in school children’s learning.
Vari
This project investigates how preschool children cope with linguistic variation. The focus is on the acquisition of adjectives such as big, clean or yellow. The project thus contributes to the question of how children acquire the grammatical rules of their first language and the meaning of utterances when the linguistic input is ambiguous.
PuS-SeL
The PuS-SeL project investigates components, influencing factors and approaches to promote self-regulation in primary school children’s learning.
PROMPT
The PROMPT project is developing an evidence-based, child-friendly prototype of a learning planner application to support students in self-regulated learning with digital media. The final version of the prototype will be made freely available for widespread use.
Memokid 2.0
We investigate the extent to which strategic and incidental learning might modulate the efficiency of memory consolidation of events over time. We also investigate how this process might differ between children and young adults.
LEGA
The LEGA project analyses the use of reading strategies by primary school children. It compares the use of reading strategies between class levels and relates this to existing vocabulary and contextual information. The aim is to find out more about the conditions under which efficient (retrieval) strategies, which are important for fluent reading, are used and how this use can be supported.
