|content_header=The | |content_header=The basic idea of the research project was that a successful knowledge acquisition with dynamic visualizations is a resource intensive process which requires simultaneous and optimized availability of different learning resources. This particularly comprises different processing capabilities of the cognitive system, functionalities of the applied computer technology and didactically substantiated contents and representations. Accordingly, the instructional potential of dynamic visualizations can only effectively evolve if these different learning resources are available in a coordinated way for a concrete knowledge acquisition scenario. This hypothesis was investigated in formal learning settings (e.g. school, university) as well as in informal learning settings (e.g. aquarium, diving excursion) for a natural sciences domain, the locomotion of fish. | ||

-To support the understanding of complex dynamic processes in the Natural Sciences. Thereby we draw attention to conducive design of dynamic visualizations while considering and developing findings from cognitive and media psychology. | |||
-To study the following topics: | |||
mental resources | |||
*processing capacity | |||
*working memory | |||
*attention | |||
*modality- and codality-based processing channels | |||
learner requirements | |||
*domain specific knowledge structures within long-term memory | |||
*expertise regarding cognitive and metacognitive processing strategies | |||
*spatial ability, visual literacy | |||
