TY - JOUR A1 - Börnert-Ringleb, Moritz A1 - Wilbert, Jürgen T1 - The Association of Strategy Use and Concrete-Operational Thinking in Primary School JF - Frontiers in Education N2 - Concrete-operational thinking depicts an important aspect of cognitive development. A promising approach in promoting these skills is the instruction of strategies. The construction of such instructional programs requires insights into the mental operations involved in problem-solving. In the present paper, we address the question to which extent variations of the effect of isolated and combined mental operations (strategies) on correct solution of concrete-operational concepts can be observed. Therefore, a cross-sectional design was applied. The use of mental operations was measured by thinking-aloud reports from 80 first- and second-graders (N = 80) while solving tasks depicting concrete-operational thinking. Concrete-operational thinking was assessed using the subscales conservation of numbers, classification and sequences of the TEKO. The verbal reports were transcribed and coded with regard to the mental operations applied per task. Data analyses focused on tasks level, resulting in the analyses of N = 240 tasks per subscale. Differences regarding the contribution of isolated and combined mental operations (strategies) to correct solution were observed. Thereby, the results indicate the necessity of selection and integration of appropriate mental operations as strategies. The results offer insights in involved mental operations while solving concrete-operational tasks and depict a contribution to the construction of instructional programs.

BT - a cross-lagged panel analysis JF - European journal of special needs education N2 - Social participation of pupils with special educational needs (SEN) is a central topic in the current inclusion debate. Numerous studies have shown that the risk of social exclusion is considerably higher for children with SEN compared to their peers without SEN, especially for pupils with behaviour problems (BP) or learning difficulties (LD). Since most of these studies are based on cross-sectional designs, there is a lack of knowledge regarding the direction of the effects. This leads to the question to what extent BP and LD have an impact on pupils’ social position in the class and, vice versa, to what extent the social position has an effect on the development of BP and LD. To address these questions, we analysed sociometric data of 1244 primary school children. È A cross-lagged panel analysis was conducted. The results indicate that BP and LD in 1st grade lead to significantly less social acceptance by peers in 2nd grade but do not predict significantly higher social rejection. A directed influence of LD or BP on a higher social rejection cannot be found. Conversely, neither social acceptance nor social rejection at 1st grade has an influence on the development of BP or LD at grade two.

Spörer, Schründer-Lenzen, Vock & Maaz, 2015). In diesem Beitrag berichten wir Befunde zum sozialen Selbstkonzept, wie die Kinder das Klassenklima erleben und wie sie sich von ihrer Lehrkraft angenommen fühlen. Untersucht wurden 1.435 Kinder in 61 inklusiven Klassen der Jahrgangsstufen 2 und 3. Es finden sich keine durchgängigen Nachteile bei Selbstkonzept und erlebtem Klassenklima für Kinder mit sonderpädagogischem Förderbedarf (SPF), jedoch fühlen sich diese weniger von ihren Lehrkräften angenommen. N2 - Brandenburg started the pilot project "Inclusive Primary Schools" (PING) in the school year 2012/2013. 35 of these pilot primary schools were scientifically supported (cp. Sporer, Schrunder-Lenzen, Vock & Maaz, 2015). In this article we report findings on the social self-concept, how children experience the class climate, and how they feel accepted by their teachers. The study examined 1,435 children in 61 inclusive 2nd and 3rd grade classes. There are no consistent disadvantages regarding self-concept and experienced class climate for children with special educational needs, but they feel less accepted by their teachers.
