"U.EDU: Unified Education - Media education along the teacher training chain" (BMBF funding code: 01JA1916)
The training course"Didactic aspects of fault diagnosis on industrial automation systems" was developed by M.Ed. Pia Schäfer as part of the EELBA research project (AG Walker) at the TU Kaiserslautern. The aim of the project was to evaluate the effectiveness of the training. The results of the evaluation are to be transferred to teacher training on the one hand and to school practice on the other. As part of the follow-up project DEFINE, which was conceived by Prof. Dr. Felix Walker (University of Hamburg) and continued in cooperation in the working group on didactics in technology, the teacher training was revised and digitized. In addition, a training concept for trainees was derived from it, which is the focus of the study. In both courses, the SINA simulation (UHH, AG Walker) is used for error diagnosis and analytical problem solving. Analytical problem solving is supported by digital feedback. The aim of the study is to answer the question of whether it makes a difference if trainees receive query-based or trigger-based feedback to support analytical problem solving. Trigger-based feedback is automatically displayed if the user takes too many wrong steps. Inquiry-based feedback can be accessed at any time and includes help with varying levels of detail.
