معرفی
Niklas Obergassel, M.Sc., is a research associate in the PLENAR project at the Institute of Educational Science, Ruhr University Bochum. He holds a Master of Science degree and is affiliated with the Professorship for Lifelong Learning, focusing on non-formal and informal learning contexts. His research spans educational psychology, learning technologies, and cognitive science applications in education, with particular attention to retrieval practice, generative learning strategies, and political socialization.
His work includes projects like ProPro-AT (2017-2020) exploring adaptive learning systems and recent investigations into the efficacy of quiz-based learning and the impact of experiential political education. He contributes to both empirical studies and field experiments in higher education settings.
Key research areas include optimizing learning sequences (e.g., retrieval practice before generative tasks), assessing the effectiveness of adaptive quizzing, and evaluating how real-world experiences like parliamentary visits influence political trust among adults.
No academic awards are explicitly mentioned, but his involvement in high-impact projects like PLENAR and ProPro-AT underscores his active role in educational research innovation.
