We investigate the effects of making these insights salient to students by sending out goal-setting prompts in a blended learning environment with bi-weekly quizzes. The randomized field experiment in a large mandatory economics course shows promising results: the treated students outperform the control group. They are 18.8\% (0.20 SD) more likely to pass the exam and earn 6.7\% (0.19 SD) more points on the exam. While we cannot causally disentangle the effects of goal-setting from the prompt sent, we observe that treated students use the online learning platform earlier in the semester and attempt more online exercises compared to the control group. The heterogeneity analysis suggests that higher treatment effects are associated with low performance at the beginning of the course.}, language = {en} } @article{HermannsKeller2022, author = {Hermanns, Jolanda and Keller, David}, title = {The development, use, and evaluation of digital games and quizzes in an introductory course on organic chemistry for preservice chemistry teachers}, series = {Journal of chemical education / Division of Chemical Education, Inc., American Chemical Society}, volume = {99}, journal = {Journal of chemical education / Division of Chemical Education, Inc., American Chemical Society}, number = {4}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington}, issn = {0021-9584}, doi = {10.1021/acs.jchemed.2c00058}, pages = {1715 -- 1724}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Due to the COVID pandemic, the introductory course on organic chemistry was developed and conducted as anonline course.

The quizzes'main goalwas to give the students the opportunity to check whether they had memorized the knowledge needed in the course. Another goal was to make transparent which knowledge the students shouldmemorize by rote. The evaluation shows that the students hadnot internalized all knowledge which they should apply in severaltasks on organic chemistry. They answered multiselect questions in general less well than single-select questions. The games shouldcombine fun with learning. The evaluation of the games shows that the students rated them very well. The students used thosegames again for their exam preparation, as the monitoring of accessing the games showed. Students'experiences with usingelectronic devices in general or for quizzes and games have also been evaluated, because their experience could influence thestudents'assessment of the quizzes and games used in our study. However, the students used electronic devices regularly and shouldtherefore be technically competent to use our quizzes and games. The evaluation showed that the use of digital games for learningpurposes is not very common, neither at school nor at university, although the students had worked with such tools before.

In dieser Phase k{\"o}nnen Lehrkr{\"a}fte aus einem Angebot an berufsbegleitenden Lerngelegenheiten w{\"a}hlen, die auf die Anpassung und Weiterentwicklung ihrer professionellen Kompetenzen abzielen. Im Rahmen dieser Professionalisierungsmaßnahmen haben Lehrkr{\"a}fte Gelegenheit zur Reflexion und Weiterentwicklung ihrer Unterrichtspraxis. Deshalb sind Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildungen auch f{\"u}r die Entwicklung von Unterrichtsqualit{\"a}t und das Lernen der Sch{\"u}ler:innen bedeutsam (Lipowsky, 2014). Ergebnisse der Nutzungsforschung zeigen jedoch, dass das Fortbildungsangebot nicht von allen Lehrkr{\"a}ften im vollen Umfang genutzt wird und sich Lehrkr{\"a}fte in dem Nutzungsumfang dieser beruflichen Lerngelegenheiten unterscheiden (Hoffmann \& Richter, 2016). Das hat zur Folge, dass das Wirkpotenzial des Fortbildungsangebots nicht voll ausgesch{\"o}pft werden kann. Um die Nutzung von Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildungen zu f{\"o}rdern, werden auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen verschiedene Steuerungsinstrumente von Akteuren eingesetzt. Die Frage nach der Steuerungsm{\"o}glichkeit im Rahmen der dritten Phase der Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung ist bislang jedoch weitestgehend unbearbeitet geblieben. Die vorliegende Arbeit kn{\"u}pft an die bestehende Forschung zur Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildung an und nutzt die theoretische Perspektive der Educational Governance, um im Rahmen von vier Teilstudien der Frage nachzugehen, welche Instrumente und Potenziale der Steue-rung auf den unterschiedlichen Ebenen des Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildungssystems bestehen und wie diese durch die verschiedenen politischen und schulischen Akteure umgesetzt werden. Außerdem soll der Frage nachgegangen werden, wie wirksam die genutzten Steuerungsinstrumente im Hinblick auf die Nutzung von Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildungen sind. Die {\"u}bergeordnete Fragestellung wird vor dem Hintergrund eines f{\"u}r das Lehrkr{\"a}ftefortbildungssystem abgelei-teten theoretischen Rahmenmodells in Form eines Mehrebenenmodells bearbeitet, welches als Grundlage f{\"u}r die theoretische Verortung der nachfolgenden empirischen Untersuchungen zur Fortbildungsnutzung und der Wirksamkeit verschiedener Steuerungsinstrumente dient. Studie I nimmt vor diesem Hintergrund die Ebene der politischen Akteure in den Blick und geht der Frage nach, wie bedeutsam die gesetzliche Fortbildungspflicht f{\"u}r die Fortbildungsbeteiligung von Lehrkr{\"a}ften ist. Hierzu wurde untersucht, inwiefern Zusammenh{\"a}nge zwischen der Fortbildungsteilnahme von Lehrkr{\"a}ften und der Zugeh{\"o}rigkeit zu Bundesl{\"a}ndern mit und ohne konkreter Fortbildungsverpflichtung sowie zu Bundesl{\"a}ndern mit und ohne Nachweispflicht absolvierter Fortbildungen bestehen. Dazu wurden Daten aus dem IQB-L{\"a}ndervergleich 2011 und 2012 sowie dem IQB-Bildungstrend 2015 mittels logistischer und linearer Regressionsmodelle analysiert. Studie II und Studie III widmen sich den Rahmenbedingungen f{\"u}r schulinterne Fortbildungen. Studie II befasst sich zun{\"a}chst mit schulformspezifischen Unterschieden bei der Wahl der Fortbildungsthemen. Studie III untersucht das schulinterne Fortbildungsangebot hinsichtlich des Nutzungsumfangs und des Zusammenhangs zwischen Schulmerkmalen und der Nutzung unterschiedlicher Fortbildungsthemen. Dar{\"u}ber hinaus wird ein Vergleich zwi-schen den beiden Angebotsformaten hinsichtlich des jeweiligen Anteils an thematischen Fortbildungsveranstaltungen vorgenommen. Hierzu wurden Daten der Fortbildungsdatenbank des Landes Brandenburg ausgewertet. Neben der Untersuchung der Fortbildungsteilnahme im Zusammenhang mit administrativen Vorgaben und der Nutzung des schulinternen Fortbildungsangebots auf Schulebene wurde zur Bearbeitung der {\"u}bergeordneten Forschungsfrage der vorliegenden Arbeit in der Studie IV dar{\"u}ber hinaus eine Untersuchung des Einsatzes von Professionalisierungsmaßnahmen im Rahmen schulischer Personalentwicklung durchgef{\"u}hrt. Durch die qualitative Studie IV wurde ein vertiefender Einblick in die schulische Praxis erm{\"o}glicht, um die Kenntnisse aus den quantitativen Studien I bis III zu erg{\"a}nzen. Im Rahmen einer qualitati-ven Interviewstudie wurde der Frage nachgegangen werden, wie Schulleitungen ausgezeichneter Schulen Personalentwicklung auffassen, welche Informationsquellen sie hierbei mit einbeziehen und welche Maßnahmen sie nutzen und in diesem Sinne Personalentwicklung als ein Instrument f{\"u}r Organisationsentwicklung einsetzen. Im abschließenden Kapitel der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die zentralen Ergebnisse der durchgef{\"u}hrten Studien zusammenfassend diskutiert. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit deuten insgesamt darauf hin, dass Akteure auf den jeweiligen Ebenen direkte und indirekete Steuerungsinstrumente mit dem Ziel einsetzen, die Nutzung des zur Verf{\"u}gung stehenden Angebots zu erh{\"o}hen, allerdings erzielen sie mit den genutzten Instrumenten nicht die gew{\"u}nschte Steuerungswirkung. Da sie weder mit beruflichen Sanktionen noch mit Anreizen verkn{\"u}pft sind, fehlt es den bestehenden Steuerungsinstrumenten an Durchsetzungsmacht. Außerdem wird das Repertoire an m{\"o}glichen Steuerungsinstrumenten von den beteiligten Akteuren nicht ausgesch{\"o}pft. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit bieten somit die Grundlage f{\"u}r ankn{\"u}pfende Forschungsarbeiten und geben Anreize f{\"u}r m{\"o}gliche Implikationen in der Praxis des Fortbildungssystems und der Bildungspolitik.}, language = {de} } @misc{WilbertBoernertRinglebLueke2022, author = {Wilbert, J{\"u}rgen and B{\"o}rnert-Ringleb, Moritz and L{\"u}ke, Timo}, title = {Statistical Power of Piecewise Regression Analyses of Single-Case Experimental Studies Addressing Behavior Problems}, series = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {814}, issn = {1866-8364}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-58115}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-581150}, pages = {13}, year = {2022}, abstract = {In intervention research, single-case experimental designs are an important way to gain insights into the causes of individual changes that yield high internal validity.

Teacher self-efficacy beliefs are defined as teachers' own beliefs about their capability to achieve certain goals in a specific situation (Dellinger et al., 2008; Tschannen-Moran \& Hoy, 2001). Due to the essential role of teachers in the educational system and society, supporting teachers' well-being, productivity, and efficiency is important (Kasalak \& Dagyar, 2020). Empirical evidence highlights the positive effects of teacher self-efficacy beliefs on their wellbeing (Perera \& John, 2020) and on students' learning and performance (Zee \& Koomen, 2016), but there is a lack of empirical research focusing on the importance of self-efficacy beliefs for student teachers in teacher education programs (Yurekli et al., 2020), especially during practical training periods. Based on the importance of teachers' own teaching experiences, which have been described as mastery experiences, i.e. the strongest source of self-efficacy beliefs for student teachers (Pfitzner-Eden, 2016b), this dissertation examines practical experiences as a source of (student) teacher self-efficacy beliefs and, relatedly, the development of and changes in student teachers' self-efficacy during teacher education. Therefore, Study 1 focuses on changes in student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs during shortterm practical experiences compared to online teaching without teaching experiences. Due to inconsistent findings of reciprocal relations between teacher self-efficacy beliefs and teaching quality (Holzberger et al., 2013; Lazarides et al., 2022), Study 2 examines the interrelation of student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and their teaching behavior during teacher education. Feedback can be an important source of self-efficacy beliefs, serving as verbal persuasion that enhances feelings of competence (Pfitzner-Eden, 2016b). In this context, Study 2 also focuses on the relation between changes in student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and the perceived quality of peer feedback in terms of short-term practical experiences in teacher education. Moreover, for the investigation of the development of student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs, it is important to examine individual personality aspects and specific conditions of the learning environment in teacher education (Bach, 2022). Based on the assumption that the support of reflective processes in teacher education (Menon \& Azam, 2021) and the use of innovative learning settings such as VR videos (Nissim \& Weissblueth, 2017) foster the development of student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs, Studies 3 and 4 investigate student teachers' reflection processes regarding their own experiences in teaching and the teaching experiences of others observed during teacher education. Against the background of inconsistent findings and a lack of empirical research on the relations between self-efficacy beliefs of student teachers and different circumstances pertaining to the learning environment or personal characteristics, further empirical research is needed that investigates different sources and relations of student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs during teacher education. In this context, this dissertation examines which individual characteristics and learning environments enhance student teachers' self-efficacy beliefs, especially during short-term practical experiences in teacher education. In addition, the dissertation concludes with a discussion of the findings of the four studies by summarizing the strengths and weaknesses of each study.
