JF - International Journal of Educational Research N2 - Germany is continuously expanding its inclusive education system. Research provides evidence that students with special educational needs (SEN) in inclusive school settings show lower academic achievement and come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds than their peers without SEN. Identifying to what extent the disadvantages originating from both characteristics are confounded in predicting academic achievement, has been neglected in the German educational context. Using data of 1711 primary and secondary school students from a longitudinal study in the state of Brandenburg, this study evaluates to what degree SEN (in the areas of learning and emotional-social difficulties) and socioeconomic background (SES) are confounded in predicting academic initial achievement in reading and mathematics as well as their development over time. Using multilevel modelling techniques that nest three measurement points into students and students into classes, results identify SES and SEN as relevant predictors of achievement status and growth in both subjects. Only few and small mediation effects of SES were found, indicating that both SES and SEN remain independent risk factors for achievement. Understanding the origins of student disadvantage can help teachers to make better informed choices for designing support measures and aid policymakers' reasoning for resource allocations.

JF - Zeitschrift für Erziehungswissenschaft N2 - Der Kooperation von Lehrkräften wird für die Bewältigung der komplexen Anforderungen des Schulalltags großes Potenzial zugeschrieben. Dennoch ist Kooperation in vielen Lehrkräftekollegien nicht selbstverständlich. Auf Basis einer Befragung von N = 489 Grundschullehrkräften untersucht dieser Beitrag in einem querschnittlichen Design die kollegiale Kooperation in Schulen in Deutschland. Mit einer Regression wurde unter Berücksichtigung der Mehrebenenstruktur der Daten geprüft, in welchem Ausmaß personale, kompetenzbezogene und institutionelle Merkmale die Umsetzung verschiedener Kooperationsformen wahrscheinlicher machen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Kooperationsform „Austausch“ in der Arbeit der Lehrkräfte ausgeprägt wahrgenommen wurde, die Kooperationsform „Kokonstruktion“ weniger. Zudem zeigen sich Gemeinsamkeiten, aber auch Unterschiede in den begünstigenden Faktoren. Während sich für beide Kooperationsformen die Wahrnehmung kollektiver Selbstwirksamkeit und das Zusammenspiel zwischen organisatorischen und räumlichen Rahmenbedingungen als prädiktiv erwiesen, spielte der Enthusiasmus lediglich für den Austausch und die Unterrichtserfahrung nur für die Kokonstruktion eine Rolle. N2 - Collaboration between teachers is seen as having great potential for dealing with the complex everyday challenges that arise in schools. But collaboration is not something that is necessarily implemented in schools. In a cross-sectional study, this paper investigates collaboration among colleagues in German schools, based on a questionnaire of N = 489 primary school teachers. Using a linear regression allowing for the multilevel structure of the data, we explored the extent to which different demographic, competence-related, and institutional characteristics make the implementation of specific forms of collaboration more likely. The results show that the teachers experienced the collaboration forms "exchange" and "co-construction" at different levels, with "exchange" being more prevalent. There are similarities, but also differences, in the predictive factors for each form of collaboration. While the perception of collective self-efficacy and the interplay of organisational framework and the set-up of working spaces proved to be predictive for both forms, enthusiasm only played a role in "exchange" and teaching experience was only predictive for "co-construction".

Referring to theoretical models of the development of numerical concepts, we propose that children's early skills in processing numbers can be described analogously to temporal updating and temporal reasoning.

The internal/external frame of reference model (I/E model; Marsh, 1986, Am. Educ. Res. J., 23, 129) explains this finding by social and dimensional comparison processes. We investigated a key assumption of the model that dimensional comparisons mainly depend on the difference in achievement between subjects. We compared correlations between subject-specific self-concepts of groups of elementary and secondary school students with or without achievement differences in the respective subjects. Aims The main goals were (1) to show that effects of dimensional comparisons depend to a large degree on the existence of achievement differences between subjects, (2) to demonstrate the generalizability of findings over different grade levels and self-concept scales, and (3) to test a rarely used correlation comparison approach (CCA) for the investigation of I/E model assumptions. Samples We analysed eight German elementary and secondary school student samples (grades 3–8) from three independent studies (Ns 326–878). Method Correlations between math and German self-concepts of students with identical grades in the respective subjects were compared with the correlation of self-concepts of students having different grades using Fisher's Z test for independent samples. Results In all samples, correlations between math self-concept and German self-concept were higher for students having identical grades than for students having different grades. Differences in median correlations had small effect sizes for elementary school students and moderate effect sizes for secondary school students. Conclusions Findings generalized over grades and indicated a developmental aspect in self-concept formation. The CCA complements investigations within I/E-research.

Hierbei bilden Fähigkeiten zur phonologischen Bewusstheit (PhB) den Schwerpunkt. Der erfolgreiche Schriftspracherwerb ist nicht nur für den Bildungserfolg mit den damit verbundenen beruflichen und sozio‑ökonomischen Perspektiven wichtig, sondern auch für die aktive Teilhabe am sozialen und kulturellen Leben in unserer Gesellschaft. Die Bestandteile dieser publikationsbasierten Dissertation sind eine Monographie (Schnitzler, 2008), ein Beitrag in einem Sammelwerk (Schnitzler, 2013) sowie zwei Zeitschriftenartikel (Schnitzler, 2014, 2015). Die ersten beiden Publikationen beschäftigen sich mit der Entwicklung der PhB sowie Zusammenhängen zwischen PhB und Schriftsprachfertigkeiten. Die beiden Zeitschriftenartikel beschäftigen sich mit dem LRS‑Risiko deutschsprachiger Kinder, die im Vorschulalter aufgrund phonologischer Aussprachestörungen (PhAS) logopädisch behandelt werden. Hierzu wurden in Schnitzler (2015) die Ergebnisse einer selbst durchgeführten Studie dargestellt. In dieser Studie wurden mögliche Einflüsse zusätzlicher nicht‑phonologischer Symptome und der Art der phonologischen Aussprachestörung kontrolliert. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass zum Schulbeginn und während der Schuleingangsphase genau beobachtet werden sollte, ob Kinder über altersentsprechende Fähigkeiten zur PhB verfügen und ob sie diese segmental‑phonologischen Wissensbestände bewusst aktivieren und beim Lesen und Schreiben effizient nutzen. Dies gilt insbesondere für Kinder, für die ein erhöhtes LRS‑Risiko besteht. Verfügen Kinder zu dieser Zeit über unzureichend spezifizierte phonologische Repräsentationen, ist eine frühzeitige Intervention im Sinne einer Prävention von LRS angezeigt. N2 - This thesis investigates whether German-speaking children’s literacy acquisition is associated with phonological speech processing, especially phonological awareness (PA). Literacy skills are important for success in education which is linked to professional and socio-economic perspectives as well as participation in social and cultural life. The constituent parts of this publication based thesis are a monograph (Schnitzler, 2008), a chapter in an edited book (Schnitzler, 2013) and two journal articles (Schnitzler, 2014, 2015). The first two publications describe the development of PA and relationships between PA and literacy skills. The journal articles focus on the risk of literacy disorders in German-speaking children who suffered from phonological speech disorders before entering school. An experimental study investigating this topic is reported in Schnitzler (2015), controlling for additional spoken language disorders and the classification of the phonological speech disorders. Results indicate that PA abilities should be carefully monitored during the initial stage of primary school in German-speaking children, especially on children with a risk of literacy disorders. The availability of age adequate PA abilities as well as the activation and application of segmental phonological knowledge during reading and writing should be assessed in this period of time in order to select children for early identification, intervention and prevention of literacy difficulties.
