Principle Investigator: Frank Fischer, Christiane Lütge

EP6: Digitalization of classroom teaching in school (DigitUS)

Digitalization of classroom teaching in school (DigitUS) aims to increase the quality of teaching with digital media. We assume that the quality of teaching with digital media is subject to different conditions, such as variation in uses by teachers or the type of technical equipment in the school.
