Duration: 10/2022-09/2026 Function: Project assistant Project team: Dr. Christine Beckerle, Prof. Dr. Katja Mackowiak, Prof. Dr. Christiane Miosga, Prof. Dr. Claudia Müllers-Brauers, Fenja Lampe, Rebecca Stein & Alena Töpke (Leibniz Universität Hannover) Funding: BMBF/BMBFSFJ Abstract: Dialogic reading (DR) helps to support (multilingual) children in their linguistic and cognitive skills and prepare them for written and academic language. The adaptive shape of DL is relevant here. In ADIL, DR is situated in formal and informal learning environments (e.g., daycare, elementary school, after-school care, early intervention, family). The focus is on the triad of adult interaction partner, child, and picture books with different linguistic structures.
The following aims are pursued: 1. Conditions for successful adaptive DR are identified on the basis of video analyses; 2. adaptive DR is transferred into practice by providing students with intensive training and supporting them in implementing DR in different learning environments; 3. this measure is evaluated, on the one hand formatively (continuous further development of the process) and summative (analysis of students' adaptive DR skills and the grammatical skills of multilingual children).
