The analysis of a subset of studies revealed a small non-significant weighted training effect on teachers' cognition (g' = 0.21, SE = 0.14). An effect aggregation including all studies (with 650 teachers) revealed a medium to large weighted overall effect on teachers' classroom practices (g' = 0.71, SE = 0.16).

Less is known about the role of Big Five personality traits in students when it comes to teachers' decisions about students' educational trajectories and whether personality traits differentially affect these decisions by teachers in different grade levels. This study examines to what extent students' Big Five personality traits affect teacher decisions on grade retention, looking at two cohorts of 12,146 ninth-grade and 6002 seventh-grade students from the German National Educational Panel Study. In both grade levels, multilevel logistic mediation models show that students' conscientiousness indirectly predicts grade retention through the assignment of grades by teachers. In the ninth-grade sample, students' conscientiousness was additionally a direct predictor of retention, distinct from teacher-assigned grades. We discuss potential underlying mechanisms and explore whether teachers base their decisions on different indicators when retaining seventh-grade students or ninth-grade students.}, language = {en} } @article{WojciechowiczVock2019, author = {Wojciechowicz, Anna Aleksandra and Vock, Miriam}, title = {Wiedereinstieg in den Lehrerberuf nach der Flucht mit dem Refugee Teachers Program in Brandenburg}, series = {Die deutsche Schule}, volume = {111}, journal = {Die deutsche Schule}, number = {2}, publisher = {Waxmann}, address = {M{\"u}nster}, issn = {0012-0731}, doi = {10.31244/dds.2019.02.08}, pages = {219 -- 229}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Die durch die Fluchtmigration ausgel{\"o}sten aktuellen gesellschaftspolitischen Herausforderungen erfordern auch in der Lehrer*innenbildung institutionelle Weiterentwicklungsprozesse.

Previous research on the effects of grade retention on student development has, however, generated ambiguous results, particularly in terms of motivational outcomes. This ambiguity has been attributed in part to a lack of high-quality studies including a longitudinal design, a suitable comparison group, and adequate statistical control of preretention differences. Based on longitudinal data of N = 3,288 German students over 3 years of secondary school, we examined differences in their academic self-concept, scholarly interests, learning motivation, and achievement motivation between those being retained in the 6th grade (n = 61) and those of the same age being promoted annually. To account for confounding variables, we applied full propensity score matching on baseline measures of the dependent variables, as well as various other covariates that have been found to be associated with the risk of retention (e.g., cognitive ability, academic performance, and family background variables). Results reveal a steep decline in students' academic self-concept, interests, and learning motivation during the last months spent in the original class, just before retention. For those measures that were available, negative effects were still partly significant after 1 year, but had diminished 2 years after grade retention. Contrary to predictions suggested by the big-fish-little-pond effect, we found no positive effects of retention on students' academic self-concept.}, language = {en} } @article{JenneckKleemannVock2019, author = {Jenneck, Julia and Kleemann, Katrin and Vock, Miriam}, title = {Durch Kooperation st{\"a}rkere Berufsorientierung?}, series = {Alles auf Anfang!
