- The German Research Foundation is funding a new Collaborative Research Centre on simulation-based learning.
- The CRC "Simulation-based learning in higher education: Advancing research on process diagnostics and personalized interventions (SHARP)" will be coordinated by LMU researchers in cooperation with TUM.
- SHARP is the first CRC in the field of educational research and unites the disciplines of medicine, biology, chemistry, information technology, mathematics, physics, pedagogy, and psychology.
LMU Munich is launching the Collaborative Research Centre CRC-Transregio 419 "Simulation-based learning in higher education: Advancing research on process diagnostics and personalized interventions (SHARP)" in cooperation with the Technical University of Munich (TUM).
Many professional fields such as school teaching and medical practice increasingly call for skills such as collaborative diagnostics and complex problem-solving. The Collaborative Research Centre SHARP investigates how simulations can be designed to systematically foster these skills. Artificial intelligence will play a key role here in determining existing skill levels and adapting simulations to individual needs. In addition, the researchers will explore what skills university educators require to effectively integrate personalized, simulation-based learning into the curriculum and their classes, so that students can be better equipped for the complex demands of professional practice.
