Digital Learning Tools

In the context of smaller research projects, respectively as partial aspects of the comprehensive research topics, we also investigate individual digital tools, mostly applied in the educational sector, at the professorship. This kind of research aims to make regulatory potentials visible that are inscribed in the algorithmic design of tools (e.g. which kind of learning or teaching is (not) supported, how are teachers and students represented and governed through the tools, etc.) and to scrutinize the permanent contextualization and adaption of digital tools through their practical use. So far, we have for example focused on the reading software Antolin and the school platform itslearning. Additionally, the critical engagement with digital tools in education is taken up in our transfer initiative Unblack the Box as well as in the research project SMASCH.
