Ein diagnostisches Ziel der „Profilanalyse nach Grießhaber“ ist die Testung der grammatischen Fähigkeit zur Verbstellung im Deutschen. Zur erstmaligen Evaluation der Testgüte wurden 403 ein- und mehrsprachige Grundschulkinder randomisiert drei verschiedenen Testmaterialien zugewiesen: Testmaterial, das die Zielkompetenz spezifisch stimulierte, führte zu den besten Testergebnissen. Dies spricht für eine geringe Durchführungsobjektivität. Zudem wurden Deckeneffekte für Grundschulkinder nachgewiesen, weshalb die Profilanalyse nur wenig zwischen den Grammatikfähigkeiten der Kinder differenzieren kann. Auch die Retest-Reliabilität und Auswertungsobjektivität sind noch zu gering. Zusammenfassend wird die Testgüte hinsichtlich aller betrachteten Testgütekriterien als verbesserungswürdig bewertet. Daraus werden die Empfehlungen abgeleitet, die Profilanalyse stärker zu standardisieren und um sensitivere diagnostische Kriterien für das Grundschulalter zu ergänzen. Weitere Ziele der Profilanalyse, z. B. die Verbesserung diagnostischer Kompetenzen von Lehrkräften, sind in Folgeprojekten zu evaluieren.
Inklusion
(2018)
Zielsetzung: In diesem Beitrag werden Ergebnisse der EKipeE-Studie vorgestellt, in der erwachsene Kinder psychisch kranker Eltern befragt wurden. Ziel war es, die von den Befragten wahrgenommenen langfristigen Auswirkungen auf ihre Biographie, ihre Persönlichkeit und ihre Sozialbeziehungen zu beschreiben. Außerdem sollten Zusammenhänge zwischen ausgewählten belastenden Kindheitserfahrungen und Problemen im Erwachsenenalter untersucht werden. Ferner sollten die Unterstützungsbedürfnisse und -wünsche der erwachsenen Kinder erfasst werden. Methode: Im Rahmen einer online-Fragebogenstudie wurden N=561 erwachsene Kinder psychisch kranker Eltern befragt. Die quantitativen Fragebogendaten wurden mit SPSS 23.0 statistisch ausgewertet; die freien Antworten und Kommentare wurden inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet. Ergebnisse: Die Studienteilnehmer berichteten vielfältige emotionale und soziale Probleme, die sie als Folgen ihrer Kindheitserfahrungen wahrnehmen. Sehr häufig haben sie das Gefühl, in ihrer Identität und ihrem Verhalten negativ geprägt zu sein. Viele äußern deswegen einen Bedarf an professioneller Beratung und Unterstützung. Diskussion: Es handelt sich um die bislang umfangreichste Studie zu den langfristigen Folgen einer Kindheit mit einem psychisch kranken Elternteil im deutschsprachigen Raum. Die Ergebnisse verdeutlichen, dass frühzeitige Hilfe- und Präventionsangebote für betroffene Kinder, Eltern und Familien notwendig sind. Auch die Bereitstellung spezifischer Beratungsangebote für erwachsene Kinder psychisch kranker Eltern wird empfohlen.
Example of best practice
(2021)
The Refugee Teachers Program, established at the University of Potsdam, Brandenburg, in 2016, represents a successful model for training and integrating individuals with foreign teaching qualifications through an 18-month teaching and language course. Initially created to help meet the demand for teachers in Germany, the Refugee Teachers Program has been further refined over the course of the last three years in the light of expert meetings, theoretical considerations, and negotiations with the Brandenburg Ministry of Education. This was the first program of its kind in Germany, following an influx of people being forced to migrate from countries such as Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq in 2015. The program responded to these international events by providing training, work, and refuge for migrants who already had teaching experience in their home countries. More than 85 participants successfully completed the program and many have taken up newly created positions as teachers and pedagogical assistants in German schools. However, a number of hurdles still remain before most of the program's graduates can be granted full employment as teachers in Germany.
We present the first systematic literature review on stress and burnout in K−12 teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on a systematic literature search, we identified 17 studies that included 9,874 K−12 teachers from around the world. These studies showed some indication that burnout did increase during the COVID-19 pandemic. There were, however, almost no differences in the levels of stress and burnout experienced by K−12 teachers compared to individuals employed in other occupational fields. School principals' leadership styles emerged as an organizational characteristic that is highly relevant for K−12 teachers' levels of stress and burnout. Individual teacher characteristics associated with burnout were K−12 teachers' personality, self-efficacy in online teaching, and perceived vulnerability to COVID-19. In order to reduce stress, there was an indication that stress-management training in combination with training in technology use for teaching may be superior to stress-management training alone. Future research needs to adopt more longitudinal designs and examine the interplay between individual and organizational characteristics in the development of teacher stress and burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
Teachers' attitudes toward inclusion are frequently cited as being an important predictor of how successfully a given inclusive school system is implemented. At the same time, beliefs about the nature of teaching and learning are discussed as a possible predictor of attitudes toward inclusion. However, more recent research emphasizes the need of considering implicit processes, such as automatic evaluations, when describing attitudes and beliefs. Previous evidence on the association of attitudes toward inclusion and beliefs about teaching and learning is solely based on explicit reports. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between attitudes toward inclusion, beliefs about teaching and learning, and the subsequent automatic evaluations of pre-service teachers (N = 197). The results revealed differences between pre-service teachers' explicit attitudes/beliefs and their subsequent automatic evaluations. Differences in the relationship between attitudes toward inclusion and beliefs about teaching and learning occur when teachers focus either on explicit measures or automatic evaluations. These differences might be due to different facets of the same attitude object being represented. Relying solely on either explicit measures or automatic evaluations at the exclusion of the other might lead to erroneous assumptions about the relation of attitudes toward inclusion and beliefs about teaching and learning.
Students' achievement emotions are critical in their academic development. Therefore, teachers need to create an emotionally positive learning environment. In the light of this, the present study investigated the connection between students' enjoyment, anxiety, boredom and, in the first case, students' academic self-concept and, in the second, teachers' diagnostic skills. The third part of our study examined whether this link would be moderated by students' academic self-concept. Our sample comprised N = 1803 eighth-grade students who reported their achievement emotions and evaluated the diagnostic skills of both their German and mathematics teachers. Hierarchical models indicated that students experience more enjoyment and less anxiety and boredom if teachers exhibit better diagnostic skills. The role of teachers' diagnostic skills in relation to students' emotions was in part moderated by the students' self-concept. These results are discussed in terms of their implications for effective teaching.
Professional development on fostering students’ academic language proficiency across the curriculum
(2019)
This meta-analysis aggregates effects from 10 studies evaluating professional development interventions aimed at qualifying in-service teachers to support their students in mastering academic language skills while teaching their respective subject areas. 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). Methodological variables moderated the effect magnitude. Nevertheless, the results suggest professional development is beneficial for improving teachers' practice.
