Abstract:

Background
A central goal in education is to productively handle heterogeneity among students. Adaptive teaching, which integrates formative assessment, differentiation, and individual support, is a promising model for addressing student diverse prerequisites such as prior knowledge. While educational technology is increasingly employed to implement adaptive teaching, there is limited knowledge on whether its effectiveness generalizes across different subjects and educational contexts.

Aims
This study aims to investigate the immediate and long-term effects of technology-enhanced adaptive teaching on students’ cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational outcomes, and crucially, whether the effectiveness can be generalized across various educational settings. Additionally, we examined whether these effects depend on specific boundary conditions (prior knowledge, domain, degree of adaptivity).

Sample
The study involved N = 656 students from grades 7 to 12 (M = 14.91 years, 45 % female) across various subjects (k = 12 teaching units) from six different schools in Germany.

Methods
Using the Localize-Generalize-Transfer (LoGeT) framework, we adopted a comprehensive implementation approach combining co-design and ManyClasses approaches. ... mehr
