Summer school "Methodology of task design - How to construct exercises for learning"

Deadline for paper submission 23. 6. 2014

-----------
Aims
-----------

Exercises are employed in various areas of teaching and learning as a proven and virtually
indispensable means to improve learning success. Since constructing exercises is a complex task,
huge, sometimes commercial, exercise repositories exist. However, in order to purposefully select
exercises, the need arises to evaluate their quality.


In some disciplines, specific contributions to a methodology of task design already exist. However,
until now these individual contributions were exchanged between disciplines in only a rudimentary
way. So far neither a joint advancement of psychological insights into task design nor an analysis
of the effects of exercise processing through formal methods for representing knowledge structures
is existent.

The summer school aims to bring these approaches together in such a way that a methodology of task
design is developed, discussed and documented. To do this, psychological, psychometric and
mathematical competences shall be brought together and presented.
