Creativity and in particular the relationship between creativity and learning are the focus of our working group's current research activities. We investigate ideas of creativity, experiences with creativity in teaching-learning contexts, descriptions of creative processes and emotions in connection with creativity. Another aspect is the role of visualisation in learning processes.

If interested, it is also possible to write a Master's thesis in this subject area.

The working group uses quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods. This involves looking at very different topics, age groups and different institutions. Some past and current focal points are

• Self-concept
• Emotions at school, emotion regulation
• Experiencing coherence in teacher training programmes
• Learning effectiveness of visualisation methods
• Self-regulation and self-regulated learning
• Learning strategies and metacognition
