Design, Implementation, and Evaluation of Self-Directed Learning in Digital and Hybrid Lab-based Environments

Abstract

In order to find out how Self-Directed Learning can best be embedded in a hybrid engineering laboratory environment to make learning there more effective, this paper briefly presents the related workflow within a research project. The procedure is presented from the perspectives of a requirements analysis to an iterative didactic design, from implementation and a formati ve evaluation as part of a design-based research approach to a survey design, and the first insights into the results of a summative evaluation. In the last section, the experiences and results so far are summarized and evaluated before there is a short outlook on the follow-up tasks of the research plan.
