Friedrich W. Hesse is founding director of the research focus “Digitalisierung, Diversität und Lebenslanges Lernen” at the Fernuniversität Hagen as well as the Executive Committee Officer of the Leibniz Association. In this function, he is scientific co-chair of the Global Learning Council (GLC) and head of the working group “Digitaler Wandel”.

Friedrich W. Hesse studied psychology at the University of Marburg and the University of Duesseldorf (diploma 1976), received his doctorate at the University of Aachen (1979) and qualified as professor for psychology (1989) at the University of Goettingen. From 1976 to 1979 he was assistant researcher at the University of Duesseldorf and Aachen, where he worked as post-doc research fellow from 1979 till 1982. From 1982 till 1983 he was research fellow at LRDC and Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh; from 1983 until 1990 he was member of the academic council at the Faculty for Psychology at the University of Goettingen. Since 1990 up to the present he has been Professor in Tuebingen and from 1993 until 2000 he also worked as Head of the Department of Applied Cognitive Science at the German Institute of Research for Distance Education (DIFF). From 1995 to 1997 he was head of the CNRS sponsored Laboratoire Européen de Recherche sur les Apprentissages et les Nouvelles Technologies (LERANT) in France. From 1999 to 2019 he held the chair of the Department for Applied Cognitive Psychology and Media Psychology at the University of Tuebingen. 2001 the Leibniz-Institut für Wissensmedien was founded under his leadership, whose director he was from 2001 to 2016. In addition, from 2010 to 2018 he was scientific vice-president of the German Leibniz Association.

Friedrich W. Hesse was initiator and speaker of several initiatives and research projects like the first German ScienceCampus (2009-2018), the DFG research group “Orchestrierung computerunterstützter Lehr-Lern-Prozesse” (2006-2017), the first virtual PhD Program funded by the DFG (1999-2008) and the DFG priority program “Net-based Knowledge Communication” (2000-2006) as well as numerous other third-party funded projects.

Friedrich W. Hesse‘s research focusses on learning with digital media, especially on net-based knowledge communication and computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). He investigates how digital media can be used to support group interaction. Special attention is given to the question whether digital tools are suitable to counteract distortion in information processing (for example influences of majorities, confirmation bias).  He also addresses the question how different approaches on group awareness can contribute to an improved computer-supported collaboration and is interested in the effects of new digital tools on collaborative learning in school education. In addition, Friedrich W. Hesse is researching the question of how groups whose collaboration is supported by the use of multi-touch screens can learn. In this way, the physical design of rooms is also taken into account in the conception of digital teaching/learning settings.

Project Description

In Germany, the economic utilization of patents lags behind expectations. Therefore, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) decided to fund projects that foster the economic use of scientific findings. Against this background, the project “Ideas to market” aims to facilitate the transition of basic research into different application areas. Specifically, research at the IWM focuses on the technological support of knowledge exchange within groups.

The exchange of ideas and joint innovation in groups often fail, because of basic cognitive or communicative misconceptions (e.g., group think). The situation becomes even worse when groups consist of heterogenic, competitive members that are unlikely to have to cooperate again in the future. Problems in such settings include the challenge of establishing a common ground, for instance, in using a commonly understood vocabulary. Also, the different needs of individual group members have to be addressed to encourage cooperation, even under competitive circumstances. Therefore, we focus on the development of computer-assisted tools that facilitate the communication process to enhance judgment and decision-making in groups.

In the project, we use visualizations of different options in a decision-making process that can be manipulated at a multi-touch table, to enhance the communication process. External representations play an important role in cognitive psychology. Notes, gestures, sketches, and other modes of representation allow humans to overcome the biological limits of the working memory and to establish a deeper, more insightful understanding of the subject in joint discussions. Moreover, new technologies harbor unprecedented opportunities for tool-assisted communication, especially in the context of group work. The possibility of joint manipulations of data, the application of different filters, and exhaustive graphic visualizations allow a more interactive communication process than in traditional media. In this context, we conduct basic research in user interface design and investigate patterns of group interactions with digital interfaces, to improve group discussions and decrease the impact of biases on their judgments and decisions.

Project Description

The LearnMap project evaluates existing empirical studies on the efficacy of digital teaching and learning at the university and maps national projects, products and concepts using digital media in higher education. For this, a framework model is being developed in order to evaluate existing teaching and learning arrangements from a learning science and psychological perspective, to assess their effectiveness and, on this basis, to foster the exchange between teachers and researchers.
In this project, we aim to provide a structured overview of the success factors of digital learning and teaching in higher education, which (1) enables comparing different solutions and thus, allows assessing new approaches and concepts; (2) promotes the application of tools and methods across universities, and makes recommendations for the didactic design of teaching and learning arrangements, and (3) allows to make statements on promising networking and promotion strategies in order to exploit synergy effects and implement innovative approaches effectively.


In a meta-study we will summarize existing empirical research results on influence factors on the success of digital learning and teaching in higher education and integrate these into a practice-oriented framework model. In cooperation with the information portal e-teaching.org, we build up the Digital Learning Map database that makes the mapped national projects and initiatives visible and therefore stimulates the exchange of best practices. In addition, innovative international developments are taken into account. Based on this, we will develop a benchmarking tool to identify innovative didactic approaches and evaluate national projects and developments with regards to learning-related success factors.


As part of the project, we will organize a conference to discuss the results of the meta-study and further research approaches with national experts. In addition, we plan to conduct a BarCamp which connects researchers in the field of using digital media in higher education with lecturers and other stakeholders (for example, students, content providers). Additionally, a series of online events has been organized in cooperation with e-teaching.org.

Joint Action in Complex Environments

Duration

Funding

Project Description

Collaborating with a partner on a shared task requires both actors to coordinate their actions on an ongoing basis. Actors have to observe the actions of their partner, understand his or her intentions, and adjust their own behavior accordingly. Research on joint action investigates the perceptual, cognitive and motor processes that help actors to achieve this coordination.

Sharing a task with one or more partners is an integral part of many everyday activities. From playing a double of tennis to carrying a piece of furniture, understanding what our partners perceive and how they interpret this information allows us to predict their future behavior and adjust our own actions. Research has demonstrated that to coordinate, cooperating actors represent multiple aspects of their partner’s part within shared tasks, even though forming these representations might negatively impact their own task performance. Which processes allow actors to cope with conflicts between information about their partner’s and their own part within a shared task remains an open question.

In this research project, we investigate the underlying mechanisms that allow actors to coordinate their actions in complex environments where information from different sensory modalities is of different relevance for the actor's individual parts within a shared task. We assume that cooperating actors are able to execute top-down control to shield their actions and perceptions against conflicts arising from representations of their partner’s current task set. Uncovering how sharing tasks with others affects the integration of information from different sensory modalities can allow us to design media environments that effectively support the coordination of joint actions.

Mental rotation of data visualisations

Group knowledge work at the multi touch table implies that participants view the surface from different angles. Yet, some visualisations can only be shown on the display with only one optimal point of view. The participants with suboptimal points of view are forced to mentally rotate the visualisation to understand its content (see illustration). This PhD project investigates what consequences this additional effort has and how to ease mental rotation.
The multi touch table promises to support group work in giving all members the same access to the same information. In certain situations like in the usage of diagrams, however, this equal access cannot be guaranteed since most diagrams have an optimal point of view that allows the best access to their information. Participants who don’t have this optimal point of view need to mentally rotate the visualisation and thus invest more cognitive resources to interpret its content (see illustration). These additional costs and their possible consequences in the processing and communication are the focus of this PhD project. The first goal is to show that the claim of the allocation of additional mental resources for the rotation is true for diagrams. The question here is how to construct diagrams in order to minimize these costs. Subsequently, the effects of the mental rotation process on learning and communication will be investigated.

Project Description

While the processing capacity of the human brain frequently reaches its limits, technologies like tablets or smartphones can store and process more and more information. However, humans can now tap into these digital resources. This PhD project aims to use technologies to improve the human information processing capacity.

Decision making or problem solving are everyday cognitive challenges. These tasks take place in working memory (WM), whose limited capacity constrains the complexity of manageable problems or decisions. Group tasks are particularly demanding for WM.

Multi touch tables are well-suited for technology-assisted group work. The goal of this project therefore is to investigate if and how information processing can be improved in a group task by providing an interactive visual environment on a multi touch table. WM load can be reduced in interaction with a multi touch table, because user actions have a high affinity to WM processes.

In a series of studies with multi touch tables we will test the effect of different manipulations on information processing and outcome quality for various complex tasks in group and individual settings. Results will make it possible to tailor the interaction of humans with technology to their WM and thereby improve information processing and group outcomes.

Project Description

This is the follow-up project of the project „Knowledge and Information Awareness for Fostering Computer-Supported Collaboration“.
Psychological theories and empirical results demonstrated that in group situations it is important to know what the collaborators know. However, developing such knowledge is difficult, especially for newly formed groups participating in a computer-supported collaboration. Our solution for this problem is to enhance knowledge and information awareness by means of a particular environment representing the others’ knowledge or knowledge structures as well as the information underlying this knowledge by means of concept maps. In previous studies we could already confirm that this kind of environment for fostering knowledge and information awareness improves group performance in such situations. This present project aims at both investigating the potential of knowledge and information awareness as well as developing an effective and efficient possibility for fostering knowledge and information awareness for improving net-based collaboration. A further goal is to implement this solution in real settings of teachings, research, and economy. Therefore, this project contributes to both basic research and use-inspired research.

Project Description

Group awareness tools were developed for the field of computer-supported cooperative work. These tools collect behavioural information about the group members (e.g. spatial location, current activities) and feed this information back to the work team. Based on the idea that groups benefit when members are informed about the status of their groups, we have developed so-called augmented group awareness tools. These tools collect cognitive variables (e.g. attitudes, preferences, degree of knowledge) from the group, aggregate these data, and feed them back to collaborative learning groups. The project seeks to demonstrate and explain the efficiency of such tools through experimental studies.

It was investigated how certain types of group awareness tools trigger psychological mechanisms that positively affect controversial group discussions, and how tools must be designed in order to improve decision quality of collaborative learning groups.

Additionally, results from several awareness-related studies at KMRC were conceptually integrated into frameworks about psychological mechanisms and design principles.

Project Description

In (our) information society, the issue of Social Software is becoming increasingly important. Social Software comprises all applications which support communication, interaction, and collaboration between individuals. These applications aim at establishing and maintaining social networks that act mainly self-organized. Social Software is characterized by many-to-many communication via the internet (e.g. via weblogs or wikis), and by functioning in the sense of a bottom-up approach, that is, the users follow their own goals.

The project "Awareness in Social Software" focused on network-wikis, also comprising processes like tagging and social bookmarking in the context of network-wikis. The goal of the project was to investigate the research question of how awareness can support self-regulated individual and collaborative knowledge processes and interactions in the context of network-wikis. Awareness in network-wikis and in tagging/social bookmarking means that the individual user of network-wikis is informed regarding features of the other users and of the network-wiki respectively. For example, awareness can be fostered by providing information about wiki contributions, tags, or annotations. While dealing with a wiki contribution, users may be informed about the expertise of all authors or about the relevance estimation of this contribution created by other users. In addition, social bookmarking may be enriched with information about the similarity of own bookmarks and others' bookmarks.

Exemplary research questions of the project:

  • How does awareness influence the reception of wiki contents?
  • Does awareness support the use of network-wikis?
  • How does awareness impact the wiki contributions (text changes, contributions to discussion pages)?

The project was part of a framework "Learning Environments of the Future" that has been funded by the American National Science Foundation (NSF) since 2006. The goal of this framework is to foster a productive, interdisciplinary, and international research community that aims at contributing to the development of Computer-supported Collaborate Learning (CSCL) environments of the future. Famous researchers within the "Distributed Learning and Collaboration" (DLAC) network in the USA, Europe, and Asia belong to this frame. In this context, three international workshops have been organized: 2006 at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China and 2007 at the Learning Sciences Laboratory of the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. To introduce a new framework, a third workshop was conducted at the Knowledge Media Research Center in Tübingen in June 2008, funded by the NSF and the DFG. The workshop topic was Social Software. The goal of the workshop was to initiate concrete research cooperations around the present project topic "Awareness in Social Software".

Project Description

Public libraries and university libraries underwent some major transformations in the last few years. While libraries used to be archives and mediators for individual knowledge acquisition, they have now turned into public places where people can collaborate by using a blend of analog and digital media. This development is addressed by the "Blended Library" project. While our project partners at the University of Konstanz investigate the integration and accessibility of task-related technologies, the KMRC and partners from the University of Tuebingen analyze aspects of collaboration among learners located in a library.

In a first project phase, modes of group work that foster group diversity and consensus building will be examined for teams that prepare for a course presentation, particularly with regard to information search and information evaluation. The overarching question involves the ways in which teams should collaborate in order to efficiently search, evaluate, and select research literature. Several modes of work (collaboration, division of labor, parallelism) are compared with individual information seeking processes.

The search tasks are executed in face-to-face settings at an interactive multi touch table. The second phase of the project will address the question of how technologies can support teams in order to minimize process losses. In particular, availability of information about the knowledge and activities of other collaborators (awareness) will play a crucial role.

Project Description

Results from embodied cognition research suggest that the human ability of representing aspects of their bodies and embodied experiences are an important aspect of cognitive online processes. There is evidence that the activation of representations of bodily experiences (heart beat, effort, warmth, touch, posture, orientation) influences the assessment of spatial variables (distance, steepness, size), social variables (abilities, sympathy, sociability, trust, affiliation, power), and specific aspects of memory.

This project addresses the question whether the dynamic use of body-related representations could be beneficial for knowledge exchange within net-based media environments. Content and structures shall become more accessible and more attractive by directed activation and manipulation of body awareness.

Our general aims are (a) the development of an interactive online environment for manipulating bodily states within familiar net-based scenarios (surfing, search, social interaction), (b) taxonomy and classification of bodily states/representations and their activators, (c) evidence for selective influence of body awareness on knowledge communication.

Project Description

Innovative digital video technologies have augmented the spectrum of instructional video uses in the classroom. For example, they allow for new types of multimedia design tasks, such as the production of video and visual hypermedia. Current research suggests that such design tasks under certain conditions can advance active and collaborative student learning. Our research addresses the specific conditions necessary for effective collaboration and learning when students perform design tasks using digital video technologies in class. The goal was to examine the influences of technological constraints, students' media-related cognition and instruction on collaborative learning and achievement. Our working program included two experiments to study the impacts of digital (hyper)video technology in interaction with students' media-related concepts (Exp. 1), and teachers' instructional guidance (Exp. 2) on students' collaborative design efforts, their deep processing of the subject matter and their acquisition of literacy skills. Particularly, we focused on visual and digital literacy skills. Our research thus involved educational goals repeatedly emphasized in educational science that are part of the national education standards relevant for German schools.

Project Description

Digital video tools afford new ways of learning in school-based education, especially in subjects like history, social studies and language arts. Here, students can discuss and reflect on social/ historical topics based on video information and learn through designing their own media products using video tools (e.g., they may design a webpage). By doing so, they can acquire important media-related communication skills, too. In this DFG-funded project we investigated the technical, cognitive and social conditions necessary for effective collaboration and successful learning with video tools. Results from a series of experiments show that video tools can support collaboration in design tasks und the acquisition of media-related skills (Zahn,Pea, Hesse & Rosen, 2010). This was evidenced not only in our research labs, but also in a large field study with 234 16-year-old German students (Zahn, Krauskopf, Hesse & Pea, 2010). Further analyses demonstrated positive effects of social interaction related instructional guidance on the outcomes of collaborative learning in a design task. The project was conducted by PD Dr. Carmen Zahn, Prof. Dr. Dr. Friedrich W. Hesse and Dipl. Psych. Karsten Krauskopf. It is part of the DFG funded research group „Analysis und advancement of effective teaching and learning" (Chairperson: Prof. Dr. Dr. Friedrich W. Hesse) in cooperation with the educational science department at the University of Tübingen, Germany, and Prof. Roy Pea, Director of the Stanford Center for Innovations in Learning, Stanford University, CA, USA.

Project Description

„Which story is shown in this painting?“, „What kind of techniques did the artist use to accomplish this piece of art?“, „Who commissioned the piece of art and what for?“

A lot of questions can come up during a visit to a museum. Up until now, these questions have been answered by so-called audio guides. Audio guides offer information on selected artworks in the form of spoken texts, but their possibilities are restricted to verbal information only. Also, the selection of artworks is determined by the curators in advance. As a result, visitors’ specific questions and interests may not be met. To solve this problem, multimedia guides as focused on in the „EyeVisit“-Project might be helpful. These guides are able to meet the visitors’ needs and interests adaptively and enable a vivid illustration of various pieces of information, e.g. by first showing sketches of the painting. It is therefore important that the multimedia guides are easy to understand and intuitively accessible to all different kinds of visitors, i.e. complicated control buttons should be avoided. Interactive displays as applied in smartphones and multitouchtables demonstrate a highly intuitive interface. These displays allow the user to manipulate pictorial representations like real objects with intuitive touch movements such as rotating, sliding or zooming.

The main idea of this project is to combine a large, collaboratively usable multitouchtable, with iPhones, which can be used individually (see picture). The aim is to design this combination in a way that the visitor can retrieve specified information according to his interests before, during or after visiting the exhibition. For example, the visitor can get an overview of the exhibition at the beginning of the visit and then arrange a personalized guided tour through the exhibition (application „EyeGuide“). During the visit the visitor can mark his favourite art works with his iPhone in order to explore more detailed information on the selected oeuvres on the multitouchtable later on, e.g. other pieces of art by the same artist (application „Fundstücke“). A third application (EyeVideo) allows the user to take pictures of or film the artworks with the iPhone, in order to then use this material collaboratively at the multitouch table, e.g. for school assignments.

The project „EyeVisit“ combines psychological research methods and findings of the Knowledge Media Research Center (KMRC) with technological development results of the Wilhelm-Schickard-Institute of Computer Sciences (WSI) at the University of Tübingen and makes them applicable in real-life situations. This project therefore serves as problem based and sustainable application of knowledge and technology at the interface of innovative media technology and psychological analyses of museum settings.

Project Description

In collaborative learning settings, it is important that the group members are informed about the knowledge of their collaboration partners. However, acquisition of such knowledge is difficult, especially in virtual groups, that is, groups with spatially distributed members collaborating via computer. To solve this problem effectively, the project coordinator developed an approach for fostering knowledge and information awareness, which provides members of virtual groups with the knowledge structures of their collaboration partners as well as the underlying information by means of digital concept maps. This approach has been demonstrated to improve group performance and to help overcome important collaboration barriers. However, in studies in which the awareness contents had to be created by group members themselves, major problems appeared which reduced the effectiveness of this approach. Nevertheless, self-generation of such contents is indispensable in application fields (e.g., at school). Therefore, the goal of this research proposition is to solve the problems of self-generation of awareness contents in order to be able to use the advantages of the knowledge and information awareness approach in application fields.

Project Description

Microblogging systems are typical Web 2.0 applications in which users write, read, and share short messages. The most popular one of these systems is Twitter. Microblogging systems are not only social networks because of the many relationships among the users but they are also real-time news media. Thus, users have to deal with an increasing amount of incoming information (e.g. news), they can perceive, process, and share with others. The quick and easy way to disseminate information in microblogging is regarded as one of its central features. However, regarding the increasing amount of information, information dissemination requires some selection by the users.

This project brings together theories and findings of communication science and psychology and analyzes (1), which content criteria influence the users’ selection decision for disseminating information. For that, approaches of news selection are employed. This project investigates (2), which environmental criteria influence the users’ selection decision. For this, principles of awareness and social navigation are going to be applied and tested.

Project Description

Net-based collaboration by spatially distributed group members is increasingly important, despite the fact that it still involves problems, especially interaction problems within the group. One of the reasons for these kinds of problems in computer-supported collaboration is the reduced contextual information, like reduced nonverbal communication.
This research project suggested "Knowledge and Information Awareness" as a solution for these problems. Knowledge and Information Awareness is defined as being aware of a group member regarding the collaborators' knowledge structures and information resources underlying these knowledge structures (e.g., Engelmann, Tergan & Hesse, 2010; Keller, Tergan, & Coffey, 2006). In this project it was investigated whether a particular tool - which is operationalized by digital concept maps representing the collaborators' knowledge structures and the information resources underlying these knowledge structures - may generate Knowledge and Information Awareness and whether Knowledge and Information Awareness results in an improved communication and coordination and, therefore, in an improved group performance. In addition, it was started to investigate the supposable impact factors included in the applied tool. Regarding the theoretical perspective the concept Knowledge (and Information) Awareness and already established related concepts, like transactive memory system or common ground, were differentiated.

Project Description

Individual problem solvers often have difficulties in identifying structural similarities between already-solved source problems and unsolved target problems or cases, in order to transfer parts of the solution. Therefore, this project aims at supporting the identification of solution-relevant case features both in a collaborative and an individual setting by applying an innovative form of group awareness, namely, knowledge awareness (cf., Engelmann, Dehler, Bodemer & Buder, 2009). In this project, it is assumed that an individual problem solver can gain awareness in considerartion of another person’s task-relevant knowledge by being confronted with the individual allocation of target problems to source problems that another problem solver has created. Furthermore, we assume that being informed about an alternative allocation of target problems to source problems combined with the awareness regarding the source of this allocation has an impact on maintaining vs. changing one’s own allocation of target problems to source problems.
In a first study, two collaborators of a spatially separated dyad were presented with an external representation of the source problems each partner had retrieved from memory and allocated to target problems in order to apply the source problem's solution procedures to the target problem. The study showed that collaborating dyads are more confident in having the cases solved correctly, provided that the solution was correct compared to nominal dyads consisting of individual problem solvers. The results of this study were presented at three international conferences in 2008.
In a second study, we investigated in an individual setting whether the individual allocation of target problems to source problems can be improved by providing the problem solver with an alternative allocation whose source is varied. Problem solvers compared their own allocation of target problems to source problems with an additional, partly correct allocation, whereby either a former problem solver or a textbook were named as source. The baseline was not provided with an additional allocation of target problems to source problems. The presentation of an additional allocation of target problems to source problems led to a stronger adaptation of one's own case allocation to the presented if a textbook was indicated as the source, compared to a former problem solver indicated as source. After being provided with an additional case allocation, both conditions improved the correctness of their own case allocation in combination with their confidence of having the target problems allocated correctly compared to the baseline. The additional case allocation, however, had neither an impact on recognizing case features nor on solving a new case. A third study is planned.

Project Description

Informed decision making and elaborated opinion formation on controversial issues require knowledge about the diversity of opinions available. The Web is a perfect backdrop for opinion formation as a multitude of different opinions is publicly available, i.e. in discussion forums and in social networks. However, the different opinions often remain unexploited When people seek new information, these information search processes are often biased in favor of the information seeker’s previously held expectations; an effect that has been labeled confirmation bias.

This project is based on the assumption that the use of technologies like recommender systems are a promising approach to overcome this bias and to stimulate elaboration. Of prior importance is the role of preference-inconsistent recommendations compared to preference-consistent recommendations. In previous studies it has been shown that preference-inconsistent recommendations can reduce confirmation bias. Further, preference-inconsistent recommendations affect preferences and elaboration, i.e. they lead to more divergent thinking. Moreover, barriers and facilitators for the impact of preference-inconsistent recommendations were investigated. Results show that preference-inconsistent recommendations are especially effective for learners with no prior knowledge or under cooperation.

Based on the results, implications for developing recommender systems should be derived.

Project Description

Interpreting web-based digital video technologies as (socio-) cognitive tools (YouTube Annotations, WebDIVER TM, or VideoANT) opens up new vistas for constructivist learning in formal education. This dissertation project poses the question, whether and how teachers perceive and mentally represent the (socio-) cognitive functions of such video technologies. Furthermore, we ask how such mental models of (socio-) cognitive tool functions influence the teacher’s planning for leveraging the potential of this technology in instruction. Based on the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework (Angeli & Valanides, 2009; Mishra & Koehler, 2006) and other models of the professional competence of teachers (Baumert & Kunter, 2006; Bromme, 1992), these questions are investigated with samples of pre-service teachers while focussing on History and German Language Arts education.

On the theoretical level, the project aims at elaborating on the TPACK approach by integrating it with the concept of mental models (Johnson-Laird, 1980; Westbrook, 2006; Mohammed et al., 2000) in order to formulate more concrete hypotheses on the cognitive processes involved in teaching with digital media. Here, mental models are defined as representations of elements and their interrelations that are constructed based on prior knowledge and beliefs. With regard to their formal characteristics, mental models can be directly manipulated and tested. As such, they help to complete specific tasks by guiding the actor’s interpretations of and predictions about her or his environment. This project focuses on mental models of the cognitive and socio-cognitive functions of digital technologies of teachers. These models represent how a specific technology influences the affordances and constraints of a learning situation and, thus, the students’ individual and collaborative learning processes. In relation to the teacher-specific task of lesson planning, these mental models are assumed to play a significant role in determining whether and how teachers leverage the specific potentials of a technology by embedding them pedagogically and in a specific content. Overall, complex and adequate mental models should lead to more flexible planning for technology integration and to scrutinizing the specific added-value of the respective technology.

On the empirical level, this general hypothesis is tested using the example of digital video technologies. In correlational and experimental studies with pre-service teachers we investigate to what extent mental models of the (socio-)cognitive functions of a technology predict a teacher’s lesson planning for this technology and how to support the construction of effective mental models.

Project Description

NEXT-TELL investigates how digital media need to be designed in order to fit and serve the complex demands in pedagogical teaching-learning practices. Within the project, we develop online tools which support teaching and learning content-independently in relevant structures. NEXT-TELL seeks to support self-organized and individual learning by supporting processes reaching from lesson planning to formative feedback (see figure). With this background in mind the engaged participation of teachers and their schools is important.

First results showed that teachers would like to be supported in lesson planning in a digital way. The pedagogical approach of evidence-based activity and assessment design (ECAAD) is, however, very uncommon to teachers. Thus, the visual planning tool has been extended with wizards which should lead through the planning process more clearly.

The idea of supporting a formative feedback culture with digital media like open learner models (OLM) is interesting for teachers. First experiences show how teachers first work on making their assessment system more transparent for their students. Communication between teachers and students as well as trust from both sides seem to be important first steps. This finding is in line with international research on assessment for learning. Students are also interested in the tool because they are not necessarily sure what they already master and what not. Moreover, they are interested in finding out how their self-assessments deviate from their teachers’ assessments. Finally, the aspect of feed-forward is a critical component in the process. So far, the tool has been extended with different visualizations and verbal feedback options.

The NEXT-TELL consortium consists of twelve partners across seven European countries (see below). The role of the KMRC is to develop and coordinate the pedagocial-psychological research in line with the tool development.

Project Description

IIn this project we studied learning of hypertext material by knowledge communication. Information about a partner's knowledge is provided in the learning environment in order to establish partner knowledge awareness (= being informed about a partner's knowledge). Knowledge is subjectively assessed by learners themselves. Visualizations of knowledge are provided to collaboration partners. A first empirical study investigated how learners use visualizations of partner knowledge when producing contributions to knowledge communication. Learners were found to adapt their explanations and questions towards partner knowledge and adaptation was found to foster the acquisition of elaborated knowledge. A second study examined how visualizations of partner knowledge influence dyadic interaction and collaborative learning. Dyads benefited from partner knowledge awareness particularly when partners´ knowledge levels were highly divergent.

This doctoral project by Dr. Jessica Dehler has been completed.

Project Description

n constructivist approaches to learning, learning through design (constructionism) is considered a valuable way of implementation of constructivist learning (Kafai & Resnick, 1996; Paper, 1994). Design tasks applied within this theoretical framework can be considered ill-structured problems, which in general need to be solved in collaboration with others. Due to the complexity of such design tasks and the simultaneous action of several persons (learners), there is the need to coordinate the collaborative design activities. In order to do so, shared mental models of the situation, which help to define and structure the design-related problem spaces need to emerge (Bromme & Stahl, 1999; Goel & Piroli, 1992; Stahl, Zahn, & Finke, 2006).
Against this background, this project investigates how the collaborative work on design-problems in computer- supported learning scenarios can be influenced by suggesting or supporting specific mental models.
In a first experimental study we exemplarily compared two metaphors describing the character of the design product of a visual design task with digital video and investigated their potential of structuring the participants shared mental models. With regard to the lack of theoretical models of the production of audio-visual media, we referred to theoretical approaches to processes of film reception from cognitive psychology and mapped two contrasting metaphors on collaborative media production. In detail, the first metaphor (documentary film) represents an operationalization of (a) a linear filmic information structure, whereas the second (interactive DVD) represents an operationalization of (b) a non-linear, spatial structure in terms of Spiro’s (1991) cognitive flexibility theory. We expected the production of a non-linear filmic information structure to lead to greater cognitive flexibility than that of a linear one. The content of the learning material applied was related to the acquisition of historical competences, with the focus being multi-perspectivity (Hartmann, Martens, & Sauer, 2007) as an operationalization of cognitive flexibility as the dependent variable. The impact of the two metaphors is investigated using a prototypical task, which asks participants to collaboratively decompose a digitized historical news-reel produced by the allied forces in 1948 using the video-software WebDIVERTM.

Project Description

This project examined how learners select, organize, and integrate relevant representations in a collaborative setting that provides the opportunity to intuitively interact with verbal and pictorial representations (through an interactive multi-touch table). The externalization of the processes, which were available through observing the interaction and communication between learners, provided an impression of processes that are covert in individual learning settings and therefore normally measured only indirectly (e.g., eye tracking data or verbal protocols).
It was investigated to what extent collaborative learning settings foster the awareness of certain properties of different representations (representational awareness), compared to individual learning settings. In a first study, a learning task was designed to further externalize the processes of selection, organization, and integration, and to provide collaborating learners with a deliberate task – learners worked with cards containing pictures or text bits about mitosis and integrated them into useable instructional materials, on which they were later tested. Collaborating learners and individuals scored similarly on tests, but had varied strategies related to selection, organization, and integration – early on in the task, collaborating learners were more concerned with the selection of information pieces, while individuals spoke more about integration. Collaborating learners also rated their cognitive load during the task as much lower than individuals.
It is thought that collaborative settings have a positive effect on the learning process, and this project aimed to pinpoint the underlying cognitive processes that are different for collaborating learners during multimedia learning. Finally, the question of how the opportunity of intuitive interaction with representations (e.g. zooming) influences representational awareness and the learning process was addressed.

Project Description

Social navigation as a guidance instrument: Community members evaluate available objects (e.g. documents, discussion contributions) actively via explicit ratings, or passively based on their usage data. Consequently, recommendations for prospective users can be derived improving the navigation and retrieval of relevant data especially in situations of informational overload. Implementing this approach in the informal learning context attempts to demonstrate the mentioned benefits.

Taking advantage of the communities' intelligence is the central idea pursued in this project. A personalised learning path can be suggested to each individual by the application of social navigation. Depending on the rating dimensions (e.g. relevance, novelty or incongruity) and community affiliations new perspectives are pointed out to activate critical thinking and reflection. In particular we are referring to new types of recommendations which are not based on the principle of maximum similarity.

The project is focused on cognitive processes caused by social navigation. Accordingly the general effectiveness of recommender systems in the context of learning will be explored.

Project Description

STELLAR, an European Network of Excellence, was a research network within the Seventh Framework Programme (FP 7), in which the European leading institutes with a research focus on Technology-Enhanced Learning had joined forces to unify this diverse research field and to advance its research capacity. Building on the strengths of the two previous research networks Kaleidoscope and Prolearn, it combined the pedagogical and scientific excellence of Kaleidoscope and the technological and professional excellence of Prolearn. STELLAR went beyond the previous networks by devising an agenda for the research on Technology-Enhanced Learning in the future. The basis for this was a broad-scale delphi study, a systematical multi-stage survey method for appraisal of future trends provided by experts' opinions. The conception and performance of this study was in joint responsibility of the University of Freiburg and the Knowledge Media Research Center.

Furthermore, a series of supplementary integration instruments were used to pool the research capacities in Europe. So it was a further central goal of the research network to incorporate important stakeholders and policy makers from business and politics by strategic communication instruments. For example, there was an annual "Meeting of Minds".

The research network highlighted the challenges and transitions people are faced with in today's knowledge society. Frequent organizational changes are on everybody's agenda, and institutional learning more and more is supplemented by informal learning contexts. This calls for the ability of self-regulated lifelong learning.

The work package on evaluation took up the challenge to develop a robust set of measurements that will allow to uncover the fragmentation of the research field. Thereby, a first picture of the recent state of the research community on Technology-Enhanced Learning emerged. The evaluation of the network's achievement ,to remove the fragmentation, was headed by the Centre for Social Innovation, AT, and was conducted in cooperation with the Knowledge Media Research Center and the Open University, UK.

The STELLAR project contributed significantly to integrate the TEL community of Europe and beyond as the results of the evaluation show. The delphi study revealed the crucial topics and an initial road map to tackle these challenges in the TEL field over the next years. This could be achieved by establishing various online platforms such as TEL-Europe, Open Archive, TEL Dictionary and TEL Thesaurus. Moreover the community was highly active in organizing of conferences such as the Meeting of The Young Minds, the Alpine Rendez-Vous and the JTEL Summer and Winter Schools. These doctoral and stakeholder events successfully integrated young and mid-career researchers as well as stakeholders and policymakers and increased the interdisciplinarity of the TEL community.

Project Description

In group situations, it is important to have knowledge about the collaborating partners‘ knowledge. However, its acquisition is difficult, especially in virtual groups. The approach for fostering knowledge and information awareness developed by Engelmann improves collaboration and group performance and helps to overcome collaboration barriers. The project addresses important outstanding questions.

In research line 1 the theoretical differentiation of the knowledge and information awareness concept from related concepts is to be validated empirically. Research line 2 focuses on the presentation and the acquisition of knowledge and information awareness content. Research line 3 expands the approach to additional cognitive contents.

The leadership of this project started by Dr. Tanja Engelmann, was handed over to Prof. Dr. Dr. Friedrich Hesse in February 2014.

Project Description

Museums possess a high potential for the propagation of knowledge due to the large number of visitors and their role as setting for informal learning. The realization of this potential, however, depends on interest and the resultant free-choice engagement of the visitor with the exhibition. We want to take a closer look at the role of interest in exhibitions: What makes exhibits interesting for visitors of museums for science and technology? How can interest be supported during the exhibition visit? How can we facilitate continuing engagement with the themes of the exhibits?

To answer these questions we conduct studies regarding the support of interest and knowledge exchange through mobile devices and interest trails in informal settings. From March through June 2006 we conducted a laboratory study with the exhibition "Nanodialogue". The results were presented on conferences regarding mobile learning, pedagogical psychology and learning in museums. A second study was conducted in March and April 2007 in the Deutsches Museum, Bonn. The results were presented on conference regarding mobile learning, psychology and learning in museums. Further publications are currently in preparation.

Project Description

Computer-supported negotiations can be improved by making the negotiators aware of their different priorities. The aim of this PhD project is to investigate the so called priority awareness and foster it by an adequate information design. This not only has practical relevance for negotiations in a professional setting, but also for everyday negotiations in private life.

Negotiations rarely revolve around only one issue, the parties usually must agree on several issues. For example in the acquisition/sale of a vehicle fleet where a multinational insurance company and a big carmaker would have to agree in addition to the price, also on the number of vehicles, their type and the amenities. Such variety of issues offers the possibility of an integrative negotiation: By giving concessions on less important issues you can in exchange demand concessions on more important issues. Thereby a higher negotiation result is achieved for both parties as if each issue had been negotiated individually (distributive negotiation). However, this is only possible if the negotiating parties are aware of the relevant priorities.

A persistent fallacy is to assume that the other party would have the same priorities (fixed-sum-error). However, this is practically non-existent and stands in the way of an integrative negotiation and a worth optimizing negotiation outcome. This PhD project aims to foster the awareness of the negotiators about their different priorities (priority awareness) and thereby improve objective and subjective measures of negotiation performance.

By using a negotiation support system it is investigated in numerous experimental negotiations about a vehicle fleet, how such information about priorities can be visually presented in such a way that automatic fallacies can be bypassed and negotiation outcomes improved. There are no special experiences required from the negotiating parties; there are no further instructions or training given to them.

First results show that a complex visualization impairs subjective negotiation outcomes (satisfaction, fairness, honesty) whereas simple bar charts that were created with a common spreadsheet program do not have this negative impact and improve objective measures negotiation outcome (individual/joint outcome, pareto efficiency).

Project Description

Today, most art museums make use of digital media, to satisfy their visitors’ needs regarding infor-mation, education and enjoyment. Within the EyeVisit project (see details here) the workstream “Linking museum and school by collaborative video clip production” focuses on visual skills and the question: how can digital media be applied as support for students to develop such skills.

Therefore, a prototypical video tool is being developed, which allows for a meaningful processing of artworks in accordance with the learning through visual design approach (Zahn, Pea, Hesse, & Rosen, 2010). In our scenario, students browse the museum guided by an educational visual search task, collect appropriate art works with mobile devices and, finally, convert the selected art works by means of a large Multi Touch Table into a video clip. According to the learning through visual design rationale and in line with empirical data from field experiments (e.g. Zahn, et al., 2010), collaboratively designing a product can lead to a deep and meaningful engagement with the respective content since it generates a design space across different levels (form, content, and person).

While the workstream “Linking museum and school by collaborative video clip production” primarily focusses on learning and visual skills development, the PhD project of Moritz Borchers is additionally concerned with the influence of modern digital media on aesthetic experience.

Project Description

This project provides empirical evidence for the impact of teachers' knowledge and beliefs on the use of digital videos (and video tools) in class, which is still an underinvestigated topic in terms of systematic research. Regarding the development of potential approaches to advance technical and related pedacogical skills in teacher training, the following issues are addressed in two studies:

  1. How do teachers already use digital videos and video tools in class, and which applications do they see?
  2. How do (prospective) teachers' technical and related pedagogical knowledge about and their personal experiences with online video tools affect their planning of classroom situations?

Project Description

In this project we investigate constructivist "learning through design" for history learning and German language arts lessons in school-based education. Based on prior empirical research (e.g. Zahn, Pea, Hesse et al., 2005) we developed a specific learning unit, where students collaboratively create a video-based webpage on a historical topic ("Berlin Airlift in 1948"). To do so, they use a digitized version of a historical newsreel ("The Berlin crisis") and an innovative video tool (e.g., WebDiverTM, Pea et al., 2004, a collaborative tool developed at the Stanford Center for Innovations in Learning, Stanford University, CA, USA). The learning unit was investigated concerning important determinants of successful learning: preconditions of the students, situative factors in class, video tool support and instructional guidance by the teacher. As a result of this project we developed a unit for teacher education, which was successfully realized in practice and was accredited in 2010 by the Institut für Qualitätsentwicklung/Hessisches Kultusministerium (Institute for Quality Development at the Ministery for Education in Hessen, Germany).

Project Description

Individuals, who work together as a team, often have different preferences and objectives. This also applies to members of negotiation teams. Yet, diverse preferences of the team members are often insufficiently exchanged and aligned to joint priorities prior to a negotiation, which impairs the negotiation performance. My PhD project examines how joint priorities within the team can be fostered, in order to derive recommendations for the management of teams.

I investigate, if the alignment of team members' preferences can be fostered by computer-supported graphical awareness about the different preferences of the team members (Preference Awareness). Additionally, I examine further effects of my concept Preference Awareness, for example on social factors, satisfaction measures and also if it enables the team members to recognize which profitable trade-offs with the other negotiation party in favor of the team could be made.

Findings of my PhD project have an important impact on numerous situations in which negotiations occur and more than one person is part of the negotiation party, like for example in many political or organizational contexts in which failure or success of a negotiation can have crucial financial and political consequences. But they can also be applied to numerous situations in which team work in general plays a role and team members need to coordinate their diverse preferences and skills, for example in order to get to a team decision, solve a complex problem or reach a collective learning target. The findings are also particularly valuable for team/project managers in order to optimize the leadership of heterogeneous teams.

First promising results show that the availability of Preference Awareness in the negotiation preparation leads to more similar priorities within the team. Additionally, the team members can judge the importance of negotiation issues for the team more accurately – an important indicator of negotiation success.
