Abstract

In this empirical study, we compare embodied and non-embodied learning in young adults. Specifically, we investigate the effect of embodied learning on acquisition and recall of novel stimulus material. In this citizen science project, the research questions were co-created with citizens and results will shape follow-up studies in the classroom.
