We applied the Social Cognitive Theory to investigate whether parent–child relationships, bullying victimization, and teacher–student relationships are directly as well as indirectly via self-efficacy in social conflicts associated with adolescents’ willingness to intervene in a bullying incident. There were 2071 (51.3% male) adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17 from 24 schools in Germany who participated in this study. A mediation test using structural equation modeling revealed that parent–child relationships, bullying victimization, and teacher–student relationships were directly related to adolescents’ self-efficacy in social conflicts. Further, teacher–student relationships and bullying victimization were directly associated with adolescents’ willingness to intervene in bullying. Finally, relationships with parents, peers and teachers were indirectly related to higher levels of students’ willingness to intervene in bullying situations due to self-efficacy in social conflicts. Thus, our analysis confirms the general assumptions of Social Cognitive Theory and the usefulness of applying its approach to social conflicts such as bullying situations.

Die digitale Entwicklung durchdringt unser Bildungssystem, doch Schulen sind auf die Veränderungen kaum vorbereitet: Überforderte Lehrer/innen, infrastrukturell schwach ausgestattete Unterrichtsräume und unzureichend gewartete Computernetzwerke sind keine Seltenheit. Veraltete Hard- und Software erschweren digitale Bildung in Schulen eher, als dass sie diese ermöglichen: Ein zukunftssicherer Ansatz ist es, die Rechner weitgehend aus den Schulen zu entfernen und Bildungsinhalte in eine Cloud zu überführen.
Zeitgemäßer Unterricht benötigt moderne Technologie und eine zukunftsorientierte Infrastruktur. Eine Schul-Cloud (https://hpi.de/schul-cloud) kann dabei helfen, die digitale Transformation in Schulen zu meistern und den fächerübergreifenden Unterricht mit digitalen Inhalten zu bereichern. Den Schüler/innen und Lehrkräften kann sie viele Möglichkeiten eröffnen: einen einfachen Zugang zu neuesten, professionell gewarteten Anwendungen, die Vernetzung verschiedener Lernorte, Erleichterung von Unterrichtsvorbereitung und Differenzierung. Die Schul-Cloud bietet Flexibilität, fördert die schul- und fächerübergreifende Anwendbarkeit und schafft eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und Mitgestaltung der digitalen Welt. Neben den technischen Komponenten werden im vorliegenden Bericht ausgewählte Dienste der Schul-Cloud exemplarisch beschrieben und weiterführende Schritte aufgezeigt.
Das in Zusammenarbeit mit zahlreichen Expertinnen und Experten am Hasso-Plattner-Institut (HPI) entwickelte und durch das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) geförderte Konzept einer Schul-Cloud stellt eine wichtige Grundlage für die Einführung Cloud-basierter Strukturen und -Dienste im Bildungsbereich dar. Gemeinsam mit dem nationalen Excellence-Schulnetzwerk MINT-EC als Kooperationspartner startet ab sofort die Pilotphase. Aufgrund des modularen, skalierbaren Ansatzes der Schul-Cloud kommt dem infrastrukturellen Prototypen langfristig das Potential zu, auch über die begrenzte Anzahl an Pilotschulen hinaus bundesweit effizient eingesetzt zu werden.
Schools are a major context for academic and socio-emotional development, but
also an important acculturative context. This is notably the case in adolescence,
which is a critical period for the development of a social and ethnic identity, as
well as moral reasoning and intergroup attitudes. How schools approach cultural
diversity issues is therefore likely to affect these developmental and acculturative
processes and adaptation outcomes. In the present article, the manifestation
and effects of the most prominent approaches to cultural diversity, namely
those guided by a perspective of equality and inclusion, and those guided by
a perspective of cultural pluralism, are reviewed and compared in the context
of multi-ethnic schools. The aim is to explore when and how the potential of
cultural diversity can best flourish, enhancing the academic and socio-emotional
development of culturally diverse students.

Die von mir vorgelegte Arbeit widmet sich insgesamt der Fragestellung, wie große gelenkte Projekte an einer ostdeutschen Schule in der Wendezeit durchgeführt wurden, was aus ihnen folgte und welche Konsequenzen für die Theorie der schulischen Projektarbeit daraus gezogen werden können. Insbesondere zeigt sie auf inwieweit die Arbeit mit Projekten die Forderungen der Gesellschaft, Schule als Lern-, Arbeits-, Lebens- und Freizeitort für Schüler/innen zu gestalten, erfüllt werden kann. Unterschiedlichste Schülerbeispiele (für Begabte, (Hoch)begabte, "schwierig Begabte", Verhaltensschwierige, überraschende Entwicklungen, Lernunwillige u.a.) werden vorgestellt und daran aufgezeigt, was Projektarbeit leisten kann, um die individuellen Leistungsmöglichkeiten von allen Schüler/innen gerecht zu werden, um diese auszuschöpfen, zu fördern und weiter zu entwickeln.
Literacy acquisition is one of the primary goals of school education, and usually it takes place in the national language of the respective country. At the same time, schools accommodate pupils with different home languages who might or might not be fluent in the national language and who start from other linguistic backgrounds in their acquisition of literacy. While it is safe to say that schools with a monolingual policy are not prepared to deal with the factual multilingualism in their classrooms in a systematic way, bilingual pupils have to deal with it nonetheless.
The interdisciplinary and comparative research project “Literacy Acquisition in Schools in the Context of Migration and Multilingualism” (LAS) investigated the practical processes of literacy acquisition in two countries, Germany and Turkey, where the monolingual orientation of schools is as much a reality as are the multilingual backgrounds of many of their pupils. The basic assumption was that pupils cope with the ways they are engaged by the school – both socially and academically – based on their cultural and linguistic repertoires acquired biographically, providing them with more or less productive options regarding the acquisition of literary skills. By comparing the literary development of bilingual children with that of their monolingual classmates throughout one school year in the first and the seventh grade in Germany and Turkey, respectively, we found out that the restricting potential of multilingualism is located rather on the part of the schools than on the part of the pupils. While the individual bilingual pupil almost naturally uses his/her home language as a resource for literacy acquisition in the school language, schools still tend to regard the multilingual backgrounds of their pupils as irrelevant or even as an impediment to adequate schooling. We argue that by ignoring or even suppressing the specific linguistic potentials of bilingualism, bilingual pupils are put at a structural disadvantage.
This research report is the slightly revised but full version of the final study project report from 2011 that was until now not available as a quotable publication. While several years have passed since the primary research was finalized, the addressed issues have lost none of their relevance. The report is accompanied by numerous publications in the frame of the LAS project, as well as by a web page (https://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/daf/projekte/las), which also contains the presentations from the final LAS-Conference, including valuable discussions of the report from renowed experts in the field.
Objective: The aims of this systematic review and meta-analysis are (i) to determine the impact of school-based interventions on objectively measured physical activity among adolescents and (ii) to examine accelerometer methods and decision rule reporting in previous interventions. Methods: A systematic search was performed to identify randomized controlled trials targeting adolescents (age: >= 10 years), conducted in the school setting, and reporting objectively measured physical activity. Random effects meta-analyses were conducted to determine the pooled effects of previous interventions on total and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Potential moderators of intervention effects were also explored. Results: Thirteen articles met the inclusion criteria, and twelve were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled effects were small and non-significant for both total physical activity (standardized mean difference = 0.02 [95% confidence interval = -0.13 to 0.18]) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (standardized mean difference = 0.24 [95% confidence interval = -0.08 to 0.56]). Sample age and accelerometer compliance were significant moderators for total physical activity, with a younger sample and higher compliance associated with larger effects. Conclusion: Previous school-based physical activity interventions targeting adolescents have been largely unsuccessful, particularly for older adolescents. There is a need for more high-quality research using objective monitoring in this population. Future interventions should comply with best-practice recommendations regarding physical activity monitoring protocols.
Im Kontext der Herausforderungen globalwirtschaftlich orientierter Entwicklungen in der Gesellschaft gestalten Schulen zunehmend ihren eigenen Handlungs- und Strukturrahmen. Dieser lässt sich auch im Bildungsbereich mit 'Profilbildung' umschreiben: Schulen geben sich eine eigene Identität, mit der sie sich - auch für Außenstehende erkennbar - von anderen Schulen abheben möchten. Ziel der Untersuchung zur musikalisch-ästhetischen Profilierung soll die Beantwortung der Grundsatzfrage sein, wie der subjektive und objektive Handlungs- und Strukturrahmen einer musikalisch-ästhetischen Profilbildung beschaffen sein muss, damit sie von einer Schule erfolgreich betrieben werden kann. Die Verfasserin hebt hervor, dass es keinen einheitlichen Weg für diese Profilbestrebung geben kann und wird. Rechtliche Wege eröffnen Chancen und Hilfen hinsichtlich einer musikalisch- ästhetischen Profilbildung. Sie ist nachhaltig und in ihrer Dimension sogar eine 'Selbsthilfe', damit Schule ihre eigene Rolle in der Bildungspolitik definiert.
Schools as acculturative and developmental contexts for youth of immigrant and refugee background
(2018)
Schools are important for the academic and socio-emotional development, as well as acculturation of immigrant-and refugee-background youth. We highlight individual differences which shape their unique experiences, while considering three levels of the school context in terms of how they may affect adaptation outcomes: (1) interindividual interactions in the classroom (such as peer relations, student-teacher relations, teacher beliefs, and teaching practices), (2) characteristics of the classroom or school (such as ethnic composition and diversity climate), and (3) relevant school-and nation-level policies (such as diversity policies and school tracking). Given the complexity of the topic, there is a need for more research taking an integrated and interdisciplinary perspective to address migration related issues in the school context. Teacher beliefs and the normative climate in schools seem particularly promising points for intervention, which may be easier to change than structural aspects of the school context. More inclusive schools are also an important step toward more peaceful interethnic relations in diverse societies.
