Research topics

The research conducted by our working group aims to contribute to a better understanding of how learners and teachers deal with challenges and changes in their learning and (future) working environments in the context of digitality. In particular, we want to gain insights into how (prospective) designers of educational contexts can reflect on the potential of digital media in their work (e.g., as teachers in schools or lecturers at universities) and use it in ways that promote learning.

 

To this end, we address social and media psychology as well as educational psychology issues in the context of the following research priorities:

  • (Computer-assisted) collaborative learning/argumentation
  • Online (knowledge) communication/handling scientific information
  • Competence acquisition and application in digitally influenced settings (e.g., AI-related competencies, information literacy, reflective skills, critical thinking)
  • Digitalization and innovation in higher education
