The challenges that pupils (SuS) are confronted with on a daily basis have increased significantly in recent decades. The introduction of new, more complex learning content as well as individual differences, e.g. in the prior knowledge that is important for learning, mean that the learning success of individual pupils varies more and more. Furthermore, learning no longer takes place exclusively in the classroom and the home environment is becoming increasingly relevant

Against this background, the aim of the joint project is to research and develop a learning system for augmented reality that enables direct feedback to pupils and thus relieves the burden on teachers and parents. With this method, learning materials that are worked on with pen and paper can be expanded to include virtual information. This information is displayed with spatial precision over the pupils' written texts or figures. In addition to the learning environment, an intelligent pen is to be developed that uses sensors to record relevant information on the context of the learning situation, such as the cognitive load using physiological parameters. The project pursues a multidisciplinary, iterative and user-centred research approach.

The IZT is leading the "ELSI of future learning" work and is contributing important TA and ELSI aspects related to pen technology and digital learning support on the basis of many years of expertise in the design and implementation of TA studies. The IZT also supports the analyses of user needs and user acceptance, particularly in connection with the analysis of prospectively oriented factors with TA and ELSI references.
