Projects
INCLASS
The INCLASS project is developing an application-oriented set of tools for the inclusion of autistic children: a training platform for teachers, a self-assessment tool for the (self-)evaluation of competences in teaching children on the autism spectrum and a smartphone app for the identification of individual barriers.
InSe
This project investigates the extent to which tests and test items are capable of capturing effects of instruction.
InSel
The InSel project is investigating how well teachers can recognise internalising symptoms in their students. In addition, a psychoeducational intervention for teachers regarding internalising behavioural problems in students is being developed and tested.
IPhaMat
The project IPhaMat examined how students of mathematics for primary schools, teachers in the preparatory service, and practising primary school teachers take up an innovative teaching approach to cooperative learning.
KaKoTex
The project KaKoTex investigates how grammatical features of texts and individual characteristics of the readers (e.g. multilingualism) affect text comprehension in 4th grade. The focus is on the comprehension of linguistic means for marking cause-consequence relationships, so-called causal connectives (e.g. because, therefore). The project aims to find out (i) whether explicit marking of causal relations facilitates text comprehension, (ii) for which causal connectors this holds, and (iii) which students benefit from it.
KATO
The DFG Project KATO is investigating how primary school students perceive and produce trochaic patterns within words while reading. A combined longitudinal and cross-sectional study design allows for insight into prosody at the word level, as well as the analysis of further reading-related factors. The aim of the project is to better understand the role of word-level prosody in the context of reading development.
KiGru
The project KiGru offered children with complicated development conditions individual support and monitoring in the transition from kindergarten to primary school.
KinAut
The KinAut project investigates the barriers and conditions for the successful participation of children with autism in the day-to-day life of childcare centres. The aim is to develop materials that incorporate different perspectives and are both evidence-based and practical, with a view to promoting inclusive and autism-sensitive early years education. The materials developed will be trialled and evaluated in collaboration with childcare centres in Frankfurt.
Ko-divers
The Ko-divers project aims to develop through an evaluation-based process, a practical, effective and diversity-sensitive teaching concept for cooperative learning using the design-based research approach within research-practice partnerships.
KoaLa
The KoaLa project is part of the nationwide research network “School Makes You Strong” (SchuMaS). It focuses on researching and designing cognitively activating and collaborative learning opportunities.
