IVEKU – Immersive VR Learning Environments: Effects of Coherence Formation and Environmental Details, 2023 – 2024
Project funded by „Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft" (518077247; HA 10172/1-1)
DFG project for the implementation of an experimental VR study to investigate virtual, immersive learning environments. As part of the project, process data (e.g., eye movement data & regulatory processes) during learning in virtual realities will be collected and analyzed using Learning Analytics methods. The focus is on detailed insights into emotional, motivational, as well as (meta-)cognitive processes during learning in virtual realities in the context of an experimental investigation.
PS-I Network – Why failure can be productive: Underlying learning mechanisms of problem solving prior to instruction approaches, 2020 – 2023
