The integration of generative tasks and retrieval practice to promote inquiry-based learning in STEM lessons

01/09/2026 to 31/08/2030

Sub-project of the DFG Research Group on Sustainable Learning: Cognitive Mechanisms and Effective Implementation in the Classroom, Sub-project 8: “Integrating generative tasks and retrieval practice to promote research-based learning in STEM lessons”. This follow-up DFG project investigates how strategy instruction, utility-value interventions and successive re-learning can promote sustainable learning through non-interactive teaching in inquiry-based science lessons—by means of three classroom studies on self-regulation deficits.
