Duration: 2019-2022
Since 2014, the History of the Ruhr Foundation (SGR) and the German Mining Museum Bochum (DBM) have been running the Oral History Project "Digitaler Gedächtnisspeicher: Menschen im Bergbau" (www.menschen-im-bergbau.de) to preserve the memories of those who shaped the mining industry in the decades between the end of the Second World War and its final closure in 2018. In the second phase of the project, starting in 2019, the collected stories will be analysed under different disciplinary and didactic aspects.
The Assistant Professor for History Education is responsible for the didactic sub-project A “Digitales Lernen: Theorie und Praxis“ [Digital Learning: Theory and Practice] . In this project, digital teaching materials and concepts for the video platform "People in Mining" are developed and put into practice (Editor: Theresa Hiller).
The aim of the didactic sub-project B "Digitales Lernen: Effekte auf das historische Lernen” [Digital learning: Effects on historical learning] is the empirical examination of the learning effectiveness of the teaching materials and concepts created. This project is supervised by the Chair for History Didactics (Prof. Dr. Nicola Brauch) (Editor: Marcel Mierwald).
