Field of research
digitalchemlab - Design, implementation and evaluation of digitally differentiated learning modules for the school laboratory
The project "digitalchemlab - digital and differentiated in the school laboratory" is funded by the Joachim Herz Foundation.
Main research areas
- Digital (basic) skills of students
- Student laboratory research (motivation, learning success)
- Differentiation matrix as a method for inclusive science lessons
- Interactive eBooks and iPads in chemistry lessons
- Development of digitally differentiated learning modules
Funding from the Joachim Herz Foundation (€15,000) for the research project "digitalchemlab - digital and differentiated in the school laboratory"
