Online Argumentation

Participants wanted for online argumentation study! 

As part of a scientific study, we would like to investigate learning with the help of online argumentation. You will engage in a written discussion with a learning partner. By participating, you will gain insight into this type of learning and make a significant contribution to science!  

The study takes place online, so you can participate from the comfort of your own home. The study will take approximately 130 minutes. You will receive 2.5 VP hours for participating. Prerequisites for participation in the study are that you are a Lehramt student and speak German as your mother tongue (or have at least C1 level). The technical requirements are: a PC or laptop and a stable internet connection. Are you interested? If you would like to participate, please send an email to the Online-Argumentation Team (forschung@edutech.uni-saarland.de) with the subject “Interest in Online-Argumentation Study”. 

We look forward to your participation!   

Learning with Concept Maps (Completed)

In this experiment, we would like to investigate and understand how learners coordinate with each other in a technology-enhanced, face-to-face learning situation. We are collecting eye-tracking data and physiological data (skin resistance) in this study. Please note that we are using eye-tracking glasses in this experiment. Therefore, you should not wear framed glasses to participate. To participate in this experiment, please wear contact lenses instead if you are a spectacle wearer. You will first prepare individually and then perform a collaborative learning task with another person. The entire experiment will take approximately 100 minutes. You will receive a VP ticket for 2 VP hours after participating. You are interested? If you would like to participate, please send an email to the Learn-with-Concept-Map team (jointattention.edutech@gmail.com) with the subject “Interest in Concept-Map Study”.
