Data base

Collaboration between university-based (PH) lecturers and field-based lecturers enables a very close connection to be established between the two separate learning locations (school and university), thereby further developing and strengthening teacher vocational training.

Physical education is central to promoting sporting abilities and exercise. To ensure the high quality and further development of PE teaching, we need more knowledge on the conditions required for, and the effects of, good PE teaching.

The Storytelling project combines the telling of stories with early scientific education for pupils from grades 1 to 3. Central to the concept are the experiences of the literary figures in the stories.

This project looks at pupils’ attention and work-related behaviour in various subjects. It examines whether the length of time spent actively learning differs from subject to subject. Do pupils spend more time actively learning in craft, design and technology lessons than they do in German or English lessons, for example? 
Because these subjects tend to be taught by different teachers, the project seeks to find out to what extent the different teachers collaborate and discuss their pupils’ progress and behaviour.

Out-of-school learning places (OSLePs) for the sciences allow pupils from primary through to upper secondary school to experience laboratory work and make use of different learning materials.

Providing pupils with individualised support is becoming increasingly important. F3K seeks to create the didactic basis for using aptitude diagnostics data to provide pupils with targeted support.

The overall objective of this project is to establish a competence centre for profession-specific didactics. The objective of the “Skill acquisition in vocational training locations” sub-project is to define issues on which the three vocational training locations can work in concert to promote the acquisition of skills, abilities and attitudes. It also aims to demonstrate how students can use KOMPRA to first acquire the skills they need, then apply these skills to solve problems and tasks.

Educational research has shown that all pupils benefit greatly from high-quality teaching and lessons designed to facilitate effective learning.

The «Berzelius – high-tech for upper secondary schools» project helps teaching staff at Swiss grammar schools to show where the fields of teaching and professional research connect.
