Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all schools in Germany were locked down for several months in 2020. How schools realized teaching during the school lockdown greatly varied from school to school. N = 2,647 parents participated in an online survey and rated the following activities of teachers in mathematics, language arts (German), English, and science / biology during the school lockdown: frequency of sending task assignments, task solutions and requesting for solutions, giving task-related feedback, grading tasks, providing lessons per videoconference, and communicating via telecommunication tools with students and / or parents. Parents also reported student academic outcomes during the school lockdown (child's learning motivation, competent and independent learning, learning progress). Parents further reported student characteristics and social background variables: child's negative emotionality, school engagement, mathematical and language competencies, and child's social and cultural capital. Data were separately analyzed for elementary and secondary schools. In both samples, frequency of student-teacher communication was associated with all academic outcomes, except for learning progress in elementary school. Frequency of parent-teacher communication was associated with motivation and learning progress, but not with competent and independent learning, in both samples. Other distant teaching activities were differentially related to students' academic outcomes in elementary vs. secondary school. School engagement explained most additional variance in all students' outcomes during the school lockdown. Parent's highest school leaving certificate incrementally predicted students' motivation, and competent and independent learning in secondary school, as well as learning progress in elementary school. The variable "child has own bedroom" additionally explained variance in students' competent and independent learning during the school lockdown in both samples. Thus, both teaching activities during the school lockdown as well as children's characteristics and social background were independently important for students' motivation, competent and independent learning, and learning progress. Results are discussed with regard to their practical implications for realizing distant teaching.
Die gelingende Zusammenarbeit von Eltern und Lehrkräften gilt als eine wichtige Voraussetzung für den schulischen Bildungserfolg Lernender und wirkt sich zudem positiv auf die Beziehung von Lehrkräften und Lernenden aus. Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht, inwiefern das Engagement von Klassenlehrkräften in der Zusammenarbeit mit Eltern, operationalisiert über angebotene formelle und informelle Kontakte, sowie die von Lernenden wahrgenommene Lehrer-Schüler-Beziehung mit der intrinsischen Motivation Lernender in Zusammenhang stehen. Ausgewertet wurden Daten von 881 Schülerinnen und Schülern aus 39 neunten und zehnten Klassen aus 13 Schulen der Sekundarstufe (Gymnasien und Integrierte Sekundarschulen). Manifestlatente Mehrebenenmodelle zeigen signi¿ kant positive Zusammenhänge zwischen der von Lehrkräften angebotenen Vielfalt formeller Kontakte und der intrinsischen Motivation der Lernenden auf Klassenebene. Auf Individualebene zeigen sich signi¿ kante positive Zusammenhänge zwischen der von Lernenden berichteten Lehrer-Schüler-Beziehung und der intrinsischen Motivation.
Ziel der Studie ist die Untersuchung der individuellen und schulbezogenen Bedingungen der elterlichen häuslichen Unterstützung schulbezogener Lernprozesse von Schülerinnen und Schülern der Sekundarstufe I. Des Weiteren wurde untersucht, inwieweit diese Unterstützung mit der Veränderung der intrinsischen Motivation und des akademischen Selbstkonzeptes der Lernenden einhergeht. Der Beitrag zum Forschungsstand liegt neben der längsschnittlichen Untersuchung in der Analyse möglicher Moderatoren der Zusammenhänge. Für die Analysen wurden Fragebogendaten von n=157 Lernenden (MAlter=14.5) sowie deren Eltern genutzt. Als zentrales Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass Eltern ihre Kinder häuslich unterstützen, wenn Eltern ihr eigenes Schulengagement als nützlich wahrnehmen. Die Unterstützung im häuslichen Umfeld steht in positivem Zusammenhang zur Veränderung der intrinsischen Motivation. Sowohl die von Eltern wahrgenommene Kooperationsbereitschaft der Klassenlehrkraft als auch die Vielfalt des elterlichen Engagements im schulischen Umfeld moderieren den Zusammenhang zwischen häuslicher Unterstützung durch Eltern und dem akademischen Selbstkonzept. Limitationen wie die Verzerrung der Elternstichprobe sowie praktische Implikationen werden diskutiert.
Ein wichtiges Ziel schulischer Bildung ist es, neben der kognitiven Entwicklung auch die Entwicklung nicht-kognitiver Lernmerkmale wie die Lernfreude von Schülerinnen und Schülern zu fördern (Hagenauer & Hascher, 2018; Prenzel, 2012; Schiepe-Tiska, Lüdtke, Seidel & Prenzel, 2016). Damit einher geht die Herausforderung für Lehrkräfte und Schulen, Lernprozesse so zu gestalten, dass Schülerinnen und Schüler den Prozess der Wissensaneignung als freudvoll erleben und individuell Neugier und Spaß am Lernen entwickeln können.
Lern-und Leistungsemotionen von Schülerinnen und Schülern haben eine maßgebliche Bedeutung für erfolgreiche Lernprozesse – sie gelten als leistungsförderlich, begünstigen schulisches Wohlbefinden und befördern die aktive Teilnahme von Lernenden am Unterricht
Lern- und Leistungsemotionen sind im Schulkontext sowohl bedeutsam für die Motivation, das Wohlbefinden, die Leistungen als auch für die Anstrengungsbereitschaft sowie bildungs- und berufsrelevante Entscheidungen von Schülerinnen und Schülern (als Überblick siehe Frenzel, Goetz, & Pekrun, 2015; Hascher & Brandenberger, 2018). Studien verdeutlichen, dass schulische Leistungen von Lernenden bei hoher fachspezifischer Angst sinken (Aldrup, Klusmann, & Lüdtke, 2019; Pekrun, Lichtenfeld, Marsh, Murayama, & Goetz, 2017). Freude hat hingegen positive Auswirkungen auf das fachbezogene Interesse und Leistungen der Lernenden (Pekrun et al., 2017; Schukajlow & Rakoczy, 2016). Ausgehend von der großen Bedeutung von Emotionen für den langfristigen Bildungserfolg von Lernenden ist...

We developed a new survey instrument to investigate teacher educators? motives for entering the profession and examined the associations between motives and job satisfaction and emotional exhaustion in both teachers and teacher educators. Using data from 145 teacher educators instructing in-service teachers, we identified four motives: career aspirations, social contribution, escaping routines, and coincidence. While escaping routines represents a ?push? factor associated with emotional exhaustion in teachers, career aspirations represent a ?pull? factor associated with job satisfaction in teacher educators. The instrument can be used as a self-assessment tool for the recruitment of teacher educators. ? 2021 The Authors.
Teachers' self-efficacy beliefs have been shown to be related to their supportive teaching practices and to adolescents' motivation. Yet, little is known about these relations in elementary school. The present study examined the longitudinal effects of teachers' self-efficacy on student-perceived teacher support and students' mathematics interest with a sample of 2082 students and 133 teachers in third and fourth grade. Results revealed that teachers' self-efficacy was longitudinally related to student-perceived support, which in turn was positively related to students' interest. The findings underline the relevance of teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and teacher support for the development of students' interest in elementary school.
Teacher self-efficacy for classroom management is an important component of teachers' identity with implications for their teaching quality. Theoretically, it has been described that contextual variables play an important role for self-efficacy development and its consequences. However, little is known about the interrelationships of job resources and demands with teacher self-efficacy, and consequences for teachers' professional behaviors. We extend teacher self-efficacy research by drawing on the Job Demands-Resources model in examining contextual influences on developmental dynamics between classroom management self-efficacy and teacher-reported classroom management, from prior to qualifying as a teacher until mid-career. Participants were 395 primary and secondary Australian school teachers. Longitudinal structural equation models showed teachers' classroom management self-efficacy positively related to aspects of their perceived classroom management, particularly during early career. Between early and mid-career, the positive relationship between self-efficacy and classroom management was moderated by early career excessive demands. Implications are outlined for teacher education and school administration.
An effective handling of heterogeneous groups in classrooms is one of the main challenges that teachers face when planning their instruction. However, including means of adaptive teaching in classrooms also yields the chance to re-conceptualize classroom instruction. Researchers and practitioners often discuss the question of how different ability levels can be considered adequately in teaching and learning. Because motivation is a central source of competence development and self-regulated learning, the current article discusses how teaching can adapt to learners' different motivational states and traits. In a first step, we review theoretical and empirical perspectives on intra- and interindividual motivational differences in students and their relations to other dimensions of classroom heterogeneity such as gender, ethnic background, and socio-economic status. Against this background, we discuss how instruction can adapt effectively to learners' different motivational needs. We introduce a model of adaptive teaching that refers to students' intra- and interindividual motivational differences and derive conclusions for teacher education and instructional practice.
Teacher self-efficacy and teacher interest are two key facets of teacher motivation that are important for highquality teaching. Little is known about the relative strength of the effects of teacher self-efficacy and interest on teaching quality when compared with one another. We extend previous research on teacher motivation by examining the relations linking mathematics teacher self-efficacy and interest with several relevant dimensions of teaching quality as perceived by teachers and students. Participants were 84 mathematics teachers (61.2% female) and their students (1718 students; 48.5% girls). Based on doubly latent multilevel models, we found that teacher-reported self-efficacy in instruction was positively related to teacher-reported cognitive activation, classroom management, and emotional support in mathematics classrooms. Teacher-reported educational interest showed positive associations with both student- and teacher-perceived emotional support. Future research is advised to focus more strongly on the unique relations between different teachers' motivational characteristics and relevant dimensions of teaching quality.
Teacher motivation
(2021)
Teaching quality is a key factor in student academic success, but few studies have investigated how teaching quality changes at the beginning of secondary education and how such changes are predicted by dimensions of teacher motivation. This study investigated the changes in class-level student perceptions of teaching quality over one school year at the beginning of secondary school and examined how teachers? self-efficacy and enthusiasm predicted such changes. Data from 1996 students (53.8% male; mean age: 11.09 years, SD = 0.55) and their homeroom teachers (N = 105), who were surveyed at the beginning of Grades 5 and 6, were analyzed. Results showed a significant decline in class-level student-perceived emotional support, classroom management, and instructional clarity. Teacher-reported self-efficacy was not significantly related to changes in teaching quality. Teacher-reported enthusiasm buffered the decline in students? class-level classroom management.
Person-centered research has shown that individuals can be assigned to different motivational profiles, but only scattered studies have addressed motivational profiles in specific domains. We investigated the stability and change in motivational profiles in mathematics classrooms and examined how perceived teaching predicted changes in profile membership. Data for this study stemmed from the PISA-I Plus study (N=6020). Latent profile analysis identified four motivational patterns: Medium, Low, High and Highly confident, hardly interested. Stability in profiles from grade 9 to 10 was typical. Instructional clarity and teaching for meaning predicted changes in profile membership.
Four topics were investigated in this longitudinal person-centered study: (a) profiles of subjective task values and ability self-concepts of adolescents in the domain of mathematics, (b) the stability of and changes to the profiles of motivational beliefs from Grade 7 to 12, (c) the relation of changes to student-perceived classroom characteristics, and (d) the extent to which profile membership in early adolescence predicted mathematics achievement and career plans in late adolescence and the choice of math-related college majors and occupations in adulthood. Data were drawn from the Michigan Study of Adolescent and Adult Life Transitions Study. We focused on students who participated in the following 4 waves of data collection (N = 867): at the beginning of Grade 7 (Wave 3), at the end of Grade 7, in Grade 10 (Wave 5), and in Grade 12 (Wave 6). Four profiles that were stable across Grades 7 to 12 were identified using Latent Profile Analysis. Student-reported fairness and friendliness and competition in class predicted changes in profile membership. Profile membership in Grade 7 predicted math-related career plans in Grade 12. Profile membership in Grade 12 predicted the choice of math-related college major after finishing school and of math-related occupations in adulthood.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether teacher enthusiasm and classroom management self efficacy are related to classroom mastery orientation and student motivation. We used data from 803 students in grades 9 and 10 (53.3% girls) and their mathematics teachers (N = 41; 58.5% men). Student perceived teacher enthusiasm was related to classroom mastery orientation as well as to intrinsic value and cost at the student level. Teacher-reported self-efficacy was related to classroom mastery orientation at the classroom level. At both the individual and the classroom level, classroom mastery orientation was related to attainment and utility value.
Achievement emotions are important prerequisites for academic outcomes and well-being, yet little is known about their relation to teaching quality. This study examines the relation between student-perceived teaching quality in mathematics classrooms in grade 9 and enjoyment, anxiety, and boredom in grade 10, at both the student and classroom levels. The original data set included 6020 students who participated in the German national extension of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Multilevel regression analyses showed that teacher support and classroom management were negatively related to student-level anxiety and boredom. Teacher support was positively related to enjoyment and negatively related to anxiety at the classroom level. Cognitive activation was positively related to enjoyment and negatively related to boredom at the classroom level. Classroom management was negatively related to classroom-level boredom. These results provide insight into differential classroom processes regarding the role of teaching quality in various aspects of student achievement emotions.
Die Fähigkeit zu beraten gilt als ein wichtiger Aspekt professioneller Kompetenz von Lehrkräften. Lehrveranstaltungskonzepte, die theoretisches Beratungswissen vermitteln und gleichzeitig praktische Erfahrungen im Beraten ermöglichen, sind daher hochrelevant für die Entwicklung berufsspezifischer Fähigkeiten. Angelehnt an ein vierdimensionales Modell der Beratungskompetenz wurde an der Universität Potsdam ein Seminarkonzept für angehende Lehrkräfte entwickelt. Es bietet Lerngelegenheiten, um Beratungswissen zu Kommunikations-, Diagnostik-, Problemlöse- und Bewältigungs-Skills zu erwerben und dieses Wissen in konstruierten Beratungssituationen im Seminar anzuwenden, die klassisch für die berufliche Schulpraxis sind. Darüber hinaus wurden die Lehramtsstudierenden motiviert, spezifische Beratungskompetenzen – konkret das aktive Zuhören – im Rahmen der Schulpraktischen Übungen anzuwenden. Erste Erkenntnisse der Analyse der durchgeführten Unterrichtsstunden werden dargestellt.
Die Reflexion praktischer Unterrichtserfahrungen ermöglicht es Lehramtsstudierenden theoretische Wissensaspekte und praxisrelevante Erkenntnisse miteinander zu verknüpfen. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Bedeutung des Mediums der Reflexion (eigenes Video vs. fremdes Video vs. Protokoll) sowie der Art der reflektierten Unterrichtssituation (positiv vs. herausfordernd) für die Reflexionsprozesse Lehramtsstudierender. Darüber hinaus wird untersucht, auf welchen Ebenen (Basal‑, Sicht- und Tiefenstrukturen) das Unterrichtsgeschehen reflektiert wird. Datengrundlage der quasi-experimentellen Studie sind Unterrichtsreflexionen von 55 Lehramtsstudierenden, die inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet wurden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Lehramtsstudierende die Tiefenstrukturen des Unterrichts reflektieren, wenn die Reflexion von Situationen, die als positiv erlebt wurden, anhand fremder Unterrichtsvideos geschieht. Bei der Reflexion von herausfordernden Unterrichtssituationen werden Tiefenstrukturen sowohl anhand von fremden Videos als auch anhand von Protokollen reflektiert. Die Implikationen der Ergebnisse für die Lehrkräftebildung werden im Hinblick auf die Reflexion von Unterrichtspraxis diskutiert.
