Unterrichtszentrierte Schulentwicklung: Schulen auf dem Weg zu einer personalisierten Gestaltung von Lehr- und Lernprozessen
by Marco GalleIn diesem Open-Access-Buch untersucht Marco Galle, wie Lehrpersonen und Schulleitende ihren Unterricht und ihre Schule so weiterentwickeln können, dass sich die persönlichen Voraussetzungen und Ziele der Schülerinnen und Schüler verstärkt berücksichtigen lassen. Die Ergebnisse einer Längsschnittanalyse von Leitfadeninterviews aus zehn Schweizer Schulen, die personalisierte Lernkonzepte eingeführt haben, zeigen zahlreiche Entwicklungstätigkeiten auf Unterrichts- und Schulebene. So wird die Qualität der Lernaufgaben verbessert oder es werden individuelle Coachingangebote geschaffen. Mittels einer darauf aufbauenden transformativen Mixed-Methods-Datenanalyse werden pädagogisch-psychologische Unterrichtsmerkmale eruiert, die Hinweise darauf geben, warum solche Entwicklungsprozesse scheitern oder gelingen.

User Research with Kids: How to Effectively Conduct Research with Participants Aged 3-16
by Thomas Visby SnitkerIf you are a designer, producer, marketer, or researcher creating products for children, it is essential that you are aware of the key differences between children and adults when it comes to user journeys. While children might speak the same language as adult users, what they are actually communicating can be completely different. User Research with Kids explores these differences and more. Author Thomas Visby Snitker walks you through how to best approach user research with children through the processes of conceptualization, design, prototyping, and eventually the launch. Adults who research kids’ experiences venture into a familiar yet foreign land where the inhabitants speak a different (yet familiar) language and have different behavioral norms and values. It is important for researchers to decipher and understand this language. Including children in the process will lead to better targeted and better designed products, and User Research with Kids will help you attain this goal. Snitker’s useful insights in this book will help professionals and students in all sectors of research, design, and innovation. User Research with Kids will teach you how to better work with children using key approaches, such as understanding what play is and holistically measuring experience from a child’s cognitive perspective. Apply research rigor and best practices for your next product launch, and expand your user understanding with User Research with Kids.What You Will LearnIncorporate play and best practice to a research project with kids as (or among) the participantsApproach, scope, prepare, execute, and report research projectsChoose the method and approach that is best suited for the needs of your project and stakeholdersWho This Book Is ForDesigners, producers, marketers, or researchers with kids as the audience, or students.
