The cooperation of the project Hpc.bw (Competence Platform for Software Efficiency and Supercomputing) and the research project DigiTaKS* (Digital competences for study and work – development of a model for transformative digital competences for students) aims at the implementation of an automated, individualized result feedback on (digital) learning and usage behavior. As part of the DigiTaKS* project, approximately 400 students will be provided with hard- and software. Accordingly, the learning behavior in dealing with digital media and tools of students is collected via a longitudinal diary study over 10 days. Hpc.bw provides software to facilitate individualized, automated results feedback for students of the DigiTaKS* project. The students of the research project will be provided with an individualized learning and usage profile in dealing with digital media and tools. The individual feedback promotes reflexivity and sensitivity for one’s own learning behavior, so that the students recognize specifics of individual learning and patterns of use (habits) studying and working with digital media and tools. By comparing the individual results of the students with the characteristics of the entire group of students in the DigiTaKS* project, they receive feedback on their own digital learning and usage behavior as well as habits. The results of the individual feedback can increase students‘ sensitivity to individual learning and development needs. The cooperation is integrated in the project-related habilitation of Dr. Therese Rosemann.
