Rubrics are a widespread means to enhance task performance. However, in contrast to the question of whether rubrics effectively foster task performance, the question of why rubrics are effective has received relatively scarce attention. Frequently, researchers have assumed that rubrics help learners to accurately self-assess their task performance,...

The present study was designed to understand and optimize self-assessment accuracy in cognitive skill acquisition through example-based learning. We focused on the initial problem-solving phase, which follows after studying worked examples. At the end of this phase, it is important that learners are aware whether they have already understood the so...

Resource-management learning strategies are particularly important for performance in higher education. Despite this consideration, the current state of research still lacks evidence on the precise interplay of the different learning process components that affect academic performance. The aim of the present study was to test a mediation model deri...

Our study investigated whether comparing expert keywords after learners have generated keywords on their own improves relative metacomprehension accuracy for high school students – as found by Waldeyer and Roelle (2021 ) with university students. Moreover, we analyzed whether this potential improvement in metacomprehension accuracy in turn affects...

Is It Possible to Measure the Relevance of History? Initial Validation of the German-Language Version of the Relevance of History Measurement Scale (RHMS-D): Although the practical relevance of history for people’s lives may be said to be high from a theoretical and curricular perspective, this does not necessarily coincide with empirical finding...
Article
Full-text available
This paper examined the interplay of conscientiousness, two categories of learning strategies (i.e., time management and effort regulation), and academic performance in higher education. Based on data from two samples of first-year students (N1 = 106; N2 = 355), we aimed to validate previous results on a mediation model using a repeated measurement...
Article
As follow-up to an initial study phase, both generative learning activities and retrieval practice can substantially enhance learning, but via different functions. Generative activities are theorized to mainly serve the function of constructing coherent mental representations of the learning content that are well integrated with prior knowledge, wh...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Goal of the present study was to longitudinally observe university students' time management over the course of one semester. Students provided time schedules with their planned studying activities for each week of the semester. Times of their actual studying activities in an online seminar were recorded based on log data. Deviations between their...
Article
Full-text available
Time management is regarded as an important prerequisite for effective and efficient learning in higher education. However, university students’ time management frequently proves to be deficient, especially with freshman students, who can therefore benefit from appropriate time management interventions. The aim of this study was to compare the effe...
Article
Starting from general problems of teaching grammar in the subject of German language as well as from basic assumptions of so-called ‘more-is-more’ didactics, we discuss demands to continue teaching grammar after the eighth grade (in Germany, that is the eighth year of school). We then present a quasi-experimental study which was carried out in grad...
Article
Full-text available
Prompting learners to generate keywords after a delay is a promising means to enhance relative judgment accuracy in learning from texts. However, to date, conceptual replications of the keyword effect without the involvement of the researcher who originally proposed it are still scarce. Furthermore, it is unclear whether generating delayed keywords...

Zusammenfassung Besonders in den naturwissenschaftlichen Studiengängen brechen viele Studierende ihr Studium ab. Bislang war ein Studium der Biologie davon eher weniger betroffen. In den letzten Jahren zeichnet sich für Deutschland auch im Bachelorstudium Biologie der Trend einer steigenden Studienabbruchsquote ab. Empirisch begründete Studienberat...
Article
Full-text available
We propose the self-regulation view in writing-to-learn as a promising theoretical perspective that draws on models of self-regulated learning theory and cognitive load theory. According to this theoretical perspective, writing has the potential to scaffold self-regulated learning due to the cognitive offloading written text generally offers as an...

Das „Handbuch Lehrerinnen- und Lehrerbildung“ bietet aus fachlicher, fachdidaktischer, bildungswissenschaftlicher und schulpraktischer Perspektive einen umfassenden forschungsbasierten Überblick zu allen Bereichen der Lehrerinnen- und Lehrerbildung. Das von 174 Autorinnen und Autoren erarbeitete Orientierungswissen wird in 107 Beiträgen präsentiert...

Based on the framework of self-regulated learning, we conducted a cross-sectional and a longitudinal study with university undergraduates (N1 = 249; N2 = 210) to examine the associations of using different motivational regulation strategies and two important aspects of academic success: academic performance and dropout intention. According to the M...
Article
Full-text available
Generative tasks foster the integration of new idea units into coherent mental representations. However, they scarcely foster the consolidation of the new knowledge in memory. Hence, a promising means to optimize generative tasks is incorporating retrieval practice into them. A viable means to do so is implementing generative tasks in a closed-book...
Article
Full-text available
There is substantial evidence that students in higher education who have sophisticated resource-management skills are more successful in their studies. Nevertheless, research shows that students are often not adequately prepared to use resource-management strategies effectively. It is thus crucial to screen and identify students who are at risk of...

Full-text available
Job satisfaction is important for employee well-being and retention, which are both crucial for high strained occupations such as teachers and school principals. We investigated the structure and relationship of teachers’ job satisfaction (N = 142,280) and principals’ job satisfaction (N = 8,869). Results of structural equation modeling using multi...
Article
Abstract: Studying at a university often places complex and high demands on students' self-regulation, especially with regard to their resource management. In line with this, resource-management competencies should be able to predict study success. However, so far, there is a lack of valid instruments to assess such abilities. We will thus introduc...

Ressourcenmanagementstrategien in der Studieneingangsphase ALSTER Teilprojekt B Theoretischer Hintergrund Akademisches Lernen an Hochschulen und Universitäten unterscheidet sich maßgeblich vom Lernen an Schulen. Schulisches Lernen ist weitgehend vorstrukturiert, so dass die Lernaktivitäten von Schülerinnen und Schülern nur wenig selbst geplant werd...
