BT - how physiological needs influence feelings, motivation, and interest in learning situations T2 - Emotion in organizations N2 - Purpose Student interest and learning success is an important component of teaching learning research. However, while the impact of emotions and psychological needs on students' achievements has been a focus of research, the impact of their physiological needs has been under studied. In this explorative study, I examine what impact the physiological and psychological needs of student teachers have on their feelings, motivation, and interest in different learning settings. Approach The research method used was the daily reconstruction method and included the Felix-App, a new digital research and feedback tool that allows the measurement of feelings, needs, motivation, and interest in real time. Findings The results suggest the importance of physiological needs for perceived emotions, motivation, and interest in the learning subject. The psychological needs, on the other hand, are of less importance. Originality The Felix-App is an innovative tool to learn more about learners' emotions and needs in real learning settings. The importance of physiological needs has been known since Maslow, but should be considered much more in the context of teaching and learning research in the future. There is a need for further research on the importance of physical aspects in learning.

T1 - Academic Achievement in Math and Foreign Language: Individual Characteristics and Gender Stereotypes JF - Sibirskiy psikholoicheskiy zurnal - Siberian of Journal psychology N2 - The study aims to investigate the contribution of individual characteristics and gender stereotypes of secondary school pupils in academic achievement in math and foreign language. A sample of pupils reported in 6th and 7th grades (three waves) their self-perceived ability and motivation for math and foreign language learning, math and foreign language gender stereotypes, implicit theories of intelligence; academic achievement (grades) in math in foreign language is also included in the analysis. Regression analysis and Mann Whitney U Test demonstrated that self-perceived ability in math and incremental theory of intelligence are significant predictors for academic achievement in maths. Boys are characterised by higher level of self-perceived abilities and motivation for learning math. However, academic achievement of girls in maths and foreign languages are higher as compared to boys. Pupils learning two foreign languages demonstrate higher level of self-perceived abilities for motivation and learning math and less expressed gender stereotypes about success in learning math and foreign languages. Study findings can be used for designing educational programmes for mathematics and foreign languages, professional development and finding solutions for individualized approach in school education.

We used the brief window of global lockdown in the months of March/April/May 2020 as an opportunity to investigate the effects of externally imposed restrictions on exercise-related routines and related changes in subjective well-being. Statistical analyses are based on data from 13,696 respondents in 18 countries using a cross-sectional online survey. A mixed effects modeling approach was used to analyze data. We tested whether exercise frequency before and during the pandemic would influence mood during the pandemic. Additionally, we used the COVID-19 pandemic data to build a prediction model, while controlling for national differences, to estimate changes in exercise frequency during similar future lockdown conditions depending on prelockdown exercise frequency. According to the prediction model, those who rarely exercise before a lockdown tend to increase their exercise frequency during it, and those who are frequent exercisers before a lockdown tend to maintain it. With regards to subjective well-being, the data show that those who exercised almost every day during this pandemic had the best mood, regardless of whether or not they exercised prepandemic. Those who were inactive prepandemic and slightly increased their exercise frequency during the pandemic, reported no change in mood compared to those who remained inactive during the pandemic. Those who reduced their exercise frequency during the pandemic reported worse mood compared to those who maintained or increased their prepandemic exercise frequency. This study suggests that under similar lockdown conditions, about two thirds of those who never or rarely exercise before a lockdown might adopt an exercise behavior or increase their exercise frequency. However, such changes do not always immediately result in improvement in subjective well-being. These results may inform national policies, as well as health behavior and exercise psychology research on the importance of exercise promotion, and prediction of changes in exercise behavior during future pandemics.

The study was conducted with a software for automatic facial expression analysis and it involved testing the hypothesis that positive or negative affective valuation occurs spontaneously when people are reminded of exercise. We created a task similar to an emotional Stroop task, in which participants responded to exercise-related and control stimuli with a positive or negative facial expression (smile or frown) depending on whether the photo was presented upright or tilted. We further asked participants how much time they would normally spend for physical exercise, because we assumed that the affective valuation of those who exercise more would be more positive. Based on the data of 86 participants, regression analysis revealed that those who reported less exercise and a more negative reflective evaluation of exercise initiated negative facial expressions on exercise-related stimuli significantly faster than those who reported exercising more often. No significant effect was observed for smile responses. We suspect that responding with a smile to exercise-related stimuli was the congruent response for the majority of our participants, so that for them no Stroop interference occurred in the exercise-related condition. This study suggests that immediate negative affective reactions to exercise-related stimuli result from a postconscious automatic process and can be detected in the study participants’ faces. It furthermore illustrates how methodological paradigms from social–cognition research (here: the emotional Stroop paradigm) can be adapted to collect and analyze biometric data for the investigation of exercisers’ and non-exercisers’ automatic valuations of exercise.

Gamification im Mathematikunterricht N2 - Spiele und spieltypische Elemente wie das Sammeln von Treuepunkten sind aus dem Alltag kaum wegzudenken. Zudem werden sie zunehmend in Unternehmen oder in Lernumgebungen eingesetzt. Allerdings ist die Methode Gamification bisher für den pädagogischen Kontext wenig klassifiziert und für Lehrende kaum zugänglich gemacht worden. Daher zielt diese Bachelorarbeit darauf ab, eine systematische Strukturierung und Aufarbeitung von Gamification sowie innovative Ansätze für die Verwendung spieltypischer Elemente im Unterricht, konkret dem Mathematikunterricht, zu präsentieren. Dies kann eine Grundlage für andere Fachgebiete, aber auch andere Lehrformen bieten und so die Umsetzbarkeit von Gamification in eigenen Lehrveranstaltungen aufzeigen. In der Arbeit wird begründet, weshalb und mithilfe welcher Elemente Gamification die Motivation und Leistungsbereitschaft der Lernenden langfristig erhöhen, die Sozial- und Personalkompetenzen fördern sowie die Lernenden zu mehr Aktivität anregen kann. Zudem wird Gamification explizit mit grundlegenden mathematikdidaktischen Prinzipien in Verbindung gesetzt und somit die Relevanz für den Mathematikunterricht hervorgehoben. Anschließend werden die einzelnen Elemente von Gamification wie Punkte, Level, Abzeichen, Charaktere und Rahmengeschichte entlang einer eigens für den pädagogischen Kontext entwickelten Klassifikation „FUN“ (Feedback – User specific elements – Neutral elements) schematisch beschrieben, ihre Funktionen und Wirkung dargestellt sowie Einsatzmöglichkeiten im Unterricht aufgezeigt. Dies beinhaltet Ideen zu lernförderlichem Feedback, Differenzierungsmöglichkeiten und Unterrichtsrahmengestaltung, die in Lehrveranstaltungen aller Art umsetzbar sein können. Die Bachelorarbeit umfasst zudem ein spezifisches Beispiel, einen Unterrichtsentwurf einer gamifizierten Mathematikstunde inklusive des zugehörigen Arbeitsmaterials, anhand dessen die Verwendung von Gamification deutlich wird. Gamification offeriert oftmals Vorteile gegenüber dem traditionellen Unterricht, muss jedoch wie jede Methode an den Inhalt und die Zielgruppe angepasst werden. Weiterführende Forschung könnte sich mit konkreten motivationalen Strukturen, personenspezifischen Unterschieden sowie mit mathematischen Inhalten wie dem Problemlösen oder dem Wechsel zwischen verschiedenen Darstellungen hinsichtlich gamifizierter Lehrformen beschäftigen. N2 - Games and game-typical elements such as collecting points are an indispensable part of everyday life. In addition, they are used increasingly in companies or in learning environments. However, the method of gamification has been little classified for the pedagogical context and it has hardly been made accessible to teachers so far. Therefore, this bachelor’s thesis aims to present a systematic structure and reconditioning of gamification as well as innovative approaches for the implementation of game-typical elements in educational contexts, specifically in teaching mathematics. This thesis can provide a basis for other subject areas, but also for other forms of teaching and thus demonstrate the feasibility of gamification in own courses. The paper explains why and with which elements gamification can increase learners' motivation and willingness to perform in the long term, promote social and personal competences and encourage learners to become more active. Moreover, gamification is explicitly linked to basic mathematics didactic principles and thus emphasizes its relevance for mathematics teaching. Afterwards the individual elements of gamification such as points, levels, badges, characters and frame story are described schematically according to the classification “FUN” (Feedback – User specific elements – Neutral elements), developed especially for the educational context in the thesis. This includes ideas for learn-enhancing feedback, opportunities for differentiation and the design of teaching frameworks that can be implemented in courses of all kinds. The bachelor’s thesis also includes a specific example, a lesson plan for a gamified mathematics lesson including the associated working material, which illustrates the use of gamification. Gamification often offers advantages over traditional teaching, but like any method, it must be adapted to the content and the target group. Further research could focus on specific motivational structures, individual differences of students, and mathematical contents such as problem solving or changing representations regarding gamified teaching.
