Over the past few decades, the role of teachers has gradually evolved from a knowledge mediator to a guide for self-organized, learning students. Various studies show that the share of student-centered learning phases, during which the teacher supports the students in individual or group conversations, is between 40% and 80%, depending on the school type. While the teacher-centered phases have been thoroughly researched, the open learning phases have hardly been studied in a real school environment yet. The main reason for that is that direct observations are affected by the presence of persons and cameras to an extent which makes it impossible to draw meaningful conclusions from them.

The social development lab's overarching goal is to learn about how children relate to other children and understand their social world. They use multiple assessment methods in their studies, including direct observations of children's interactions with adults and peers, parent- and self-report measures, and physiological recordings.

The department of psychology at the University of Heidelberg is interested in the development of self-regulation in early childhood. It is well known that parental co-regulation plays a central role in this. So far, however, there is a lack of instruments that allow a non-judgmental, neutral description of the self- and co-regulative behavior of children and their parents on the basis of observations in natural interactions. The video-microanalytical coding scheme SECORE (SElf- and CO-REgulation in caregiver-child dyads) was developed for this purpose. This instrument is currently used in different task settings with children of different ages in families of different European, American and Asian cultures.

The Department of Psychology, in the Faculty of Social Studies at the University of Zimbabwe (UZ) has acquired a state-of-the-art Portable Video laboratory from Mangold International.
The lab is the first of its kind in Zimbabwe and is used for video based behavioral research on children. Studying child development from birth up to eight years of age provides knowledge about parenting, teaching and learning techniques, and also about health and nutrition issues. The findings are deeply rooted in the indigenous knowledge systems, hence their indisputable contribution to wealth creation.
