Assessment and promotion of early literacy competences - Development of a digital process diagnostic tool with an integrated adaptive intervention concept for elementary and primary schools (EuLe-F)

  • Cooperation partners: Institute of Special Needs Development Promotion and Rehabilitation, University of Rostock
  • Funding: Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF)
  • Project duration: 2021/09/01 until 2024/08/31

Project description

Within the framework of the project EuLe-F we will digitalize the diagnostic instrument EuLe 4-5 (Meindl & Jungmann, 2019) and advance it to a process diagnostic tool for early literacy competences in the transition from elementary to primary school. Building on this, we develop adaptive intervention possibilities for the areas of narrative competences, concepts of print, word awareness, script awareness and graphemic knowledge. The aim of the present project is the promotion of diagnosis-led, evidence-based early literacy intervention in elementary and primary school. To optimize the educational diagnostic process, we will consider the estimations of pedagogical professionals and teachers before implementing them into practice. This process is accompanied by formative evaluation. Above, we will assess the effectiveness of the adaptive educational diagnostic process on early literacy competences in participating children.

 “Inclusive teaching and learning settings in elementary social studies and science lessons” (ILLSU project)

  • Cooperation partners: Prof. Dr. Maja Brückmann, Prof. Dr. Anna-Maria Hintz, C.v.O. University of Oldenburg
  • Funding: Federal State of Lower Saxony, Innovation plus
  • Project duration: 2021/10/01 until 2022/09/30

The ILLSU project aims at linking teaching and research in offering (1) an innovative high school teaching concept and (2) evaluating the acquistion of competences in students. The innovative teaching concept persues the following sub-goals:

(1) The students structure experiments and learning contents according to the standards of       the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to allow a maximum of participation for all pupils.

(2) Formative assessments according to Hattie (2009) allow the evaluation of learning   success: students should be able to design and use settings for learning in a way that they are            able to monitor the skill level and the learning progress of their pupils in the ongoing learning process.

(3) The final product of the learning processes is the student´s ability to design learning settings that are sensible and sensitive to the learners´ diversity. They are able to use suitable task formats and forms in elementary social studies and science lessons.
