ESF PLUS PROJECT "ALTERNATIVE LEARNING OFFERS": A SUCCESSFUL EXCHANGE AT THE PROJECT START [06/02/2025]

On February 4, 2025, the kick-off event of the Saxon project for testing alternative learning offers took place as an online event. Organized by the Institute for Productive Learning in Europe (IPLE), the meeting brought together numerous project actors: the providers of alternative learning offers, representatives of the State Office for School and Education (LaSuB), school administrations, the Saxon Development Bank (SAB), the Saxon State Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs (SMK), the team of TU Chemnitz, as well as other interested parties.

Following a welcoming address by State Secretary Kühner from the Saxon State Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs, the coordinating body of the project, the IPLE, introduced itself and explained its tasks as well as the support offers for the implementation of alternative learning offers.

The focus of the event was the intensive exchange between the participants. In four regional groups, they exchanged information about their projects, discussed initial ideas, and debated key challenges. This open dialogue enabled the participants to gain valuable insights and at the same time make new contacts. The professorship team then introduced itself and presented the scientific monitoring of the project as well as the roadmap for the next steps.

We eagerly look forward to the upcoming project phases and are confident that the close cooperation of all parties involved will make a lasting contribution to educational development.

MOVEMENT BEHAVIOR OF PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN EXAMINED [24/06/2024]

At the Professorship of General and Biopsychology at TU Chemnitz, we investigated the movement behavior of three classes of the BIP-Kreativitätsgrundschule in Chemnitz over three weeks. Using a real-time recording system, for which we installed over 160 meters of cables and measuring equipment in the school and after-school care rooms, we were able to collect detailed movement data.

The children showed great interest in our scientific survey and were excited about the results. We are particularly pleased about the cooperation with the BIP-Kreativitätsgrundschule, which attaches special importance to movement and creativity. We are currently intensively busy evaluating the collected data and are already planning further surveys to deepen our findings and better understand the movement behavior of children. If you are interested, you can find further information about the project Movement and Interaction in the Classroom (BiK) on our homepage.
