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.
Praxisphasen im Lehramtsstudium sind von erheblicher Bedeutung für die Entwicklung selbsteingeschätzter Kompetenzen sowie für die berufliche Orientierung. Am Arbeitsbereich Schulpädagogik der Universität Potsdam wurde im Rahmen des Projektes „Campusschulen“ ein Seminarkonzept entwickelt, das die Verzahnung von Theorie und Praxis durch Vernetzung von Schule und Universität zum Ziel hat. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, fördert das Seminarkonzept unterrichtsbezogene Praxiserfahrungen im Lehramtsstudium und legt einen besonderen Schwerpunkt auf die Reflexion dieser Praxiserfahrungen. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt die theoretischen Grundlagen des Seminarkonzeptes sowie die Konzeption, den idealtypischen Verlauf und erste empirische Ergebnisse aus den qualitativen Fokusgruppen zur Evaluierung des Seminarkonzepts vor. Die Teilnehmenden betonen die zentrale Rolle der Praxiserfahrungen für die Selbsterprobung sowie für die berufliche Orientierung der Lehramtsstudierenden.
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.
Germany historically responded to student diversity by tracking students into different schools beginning with grade 5. In the last decades, sociopolitical changes, such as an increase in "German-as-a-second-language" speaking students (GSL), have increased diversity in all tracks and have forced schools to consider forms of individualization. This has opened up the scientific debate in Germany on merits and limitations of individualization for different student groups within a tracked system and heterogeneous classes. The aim of the present exploratory study was to examine how individualized teaching (i.e., teacher self-reported individualized teaching practices and individual reference norm orientation) is related to student-perceived teaching quality. Additionally, we considered moderation effects of classroom composition in relation to achievement and proportion of GSL students. Longitudinal data came from 35 mathematics classes with 659 9th and 10th grade students. Results showed significant relation between teacher self-reported individualized teaching practices and individual reference norm orientation and monitoring. Regarding the composition effects, the proportion of GSL students in class moderated the relation between teacher self-reported individual reference norm orientation and cognitive activation. Our findings contribute to the growing body of evidence that classroom composition can differentially impact the relation between teachers' behaviors and students' perceptions of teaching quality.
The social context plays a decisive role in the formation of the academic self-concept (ASC) and has been widely studied as the big-fish-little-pond-effect (BFLPE). This effect describes that comparable talented students in high-achieving school settings have a lower ASC compared to equally talented students attending low-achieving settings. Past research has focused on students' domain-specific ASC, while little is known about the relation of achievement-related classroom compositions and the various facets of ASC. Additionally, BFLPE-research has been critiqued to build its theoretical frame on social comparison theory, without providing sufficient empirical support. To address this gap, we analyzed how the single student's social, criterial, absolute, and individual ASC relate to class-level achievement of 8th graders. Applying Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling (MLSEM) we found that all facets of ASC were significantly related to average-class achievement, while student's social ASC revealed the strongest associated. The results reveal explicitly that average-class achievement is strongly related to social comparison processes.

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.
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.
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.
Teacher motivation
(2021)
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.
This study examined the relations between teacher-reported classroom management self-efficacy, stu-dent-reported teaching quality and students' enjoyment in mathematics. Data were collected from German ninth and tenth-grade students (N = 779) and their teachers (N = 40) at the beginning and the middle of the school year. Multilevel models showed that teachers' self-efficacy at time 1 significantly and positively related to class-level monitoring and relatedness at time 2. Class-level relatedness at time 2 was significantly and positively associated with enjoyment at time 2. Teacher-reported self-efficacy at time 1 was indirectly related to enjoyment at time 2 through relatedness at time 2.
The aim of this person-centered study is to identify the profiles of interest value, self-concept, and performance in the domain of mathematics among elementary school students and to examine the stability and changes in these profiles from grade 1 to grade 2. Teacher-reported evaluations of students' mathematical ability and gender were examined as predictors of changes in the student profiles. The sample consisted of 237 students (46.8% girls). The latent profile analysis identified four profiles: 1) low levels of interest value, medium levels of self-concept and performance; 2) low levels of interest value, self-concept and performance; 3) high levels of interest value, self-concept and performance; 4) low levels of self-concept and performance, and medium interest value. Boys and students whose teachers evaluated their abilities as high compared to others were less likely to change from profiles with high levels of interest value or self-concept to profiles with low levels of these factors.
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.
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.
Die vorliegende Studie befasst sich mit der Entwicklung und Validierung einer Skala zur Erfassung der Beratungskompetenz bei Lehramtsstudierenden im Praxissemester. Befragt wurden insgesamt 200 Studierende unterschiedlicher Lehramtsstudiengänge der Universität Potsdam. Faktoranalysen zeigten, dass das Konstrukt der Beratungskompetenz in vier Subskalen differenziert werden kann (Personale Ressourcen, Kooperation und Perspektivüberahme, Berater-Skills sowie Ressourcen- und Lösungsorientierung). Bezüglich der internen Konsistenz ergaben sich für die Subskalen Werte, die insgesamt als akzeptabel bis gut einzuschätzen sind. Die Subskalen waren erwartungsgemäß positiv korreliert. Für alle vier Subskalen der Beratungskompetenz ergaben sich Zusammenhänge schwacher bis mittlerer Stärke mit den Validierungsvariablen (Selbstwirksamkeit in Beratungen, Beratungsmotivation sowie Pädagogische Vorerfahrungen). Die Ergebnisse werden bezüglich ihrer Implikationen für die Lehrkräftebildung diskutiert.
PSI-Potsdam
(2018)
In Brandenburg kommt der Universität Potsdam eine besondere Rolle zu: Sie ist die einzige, an der zukünftige Lehrerinnen und Lehrer die erste Phase ihres Werdegangs – das Lehramtsstudium – absolvieren können. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde bereits kurz nach der Gründung im Jahr 1991 das „Potsdamer Modell der Lehrerbildung“ entwickelt. Dieses Modell strebt fortlaufend eine enge Verzahnung von Theorie und Praxis über das gesamte Studium hinweg an und bindet hierfür die schulpraktischen Studienanteile in besonderer Weise ein. Eine erneute Stärkung erfuhr die Lehrerbildung im Dezember 2014 mit der Gründung des Zentrums für Lehrerbildung und Bildungsforschung (ZeLB). Aus der koordinierenden Arbeit des Zentrums entstand das fakultätsübergreifende Projekt „Professionalisierung – Schulpraktische Studien – Inklusion“ (PSI-Potsdam) das im Rahmen der Qualitätsoffensive Lehrerbildung des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung erfolgreich gefördert wurde (2015–2018) und dessen Verlängerung (2019–2023) bewilligt ist.
Der vorliegende Band vermittelt in den drei großen Kapiteln „Erhebungsinstrumente“, „Seminarkonzepte“ und „Vernetzungen“ einen Überblick über einige der praxisnahen Forschungszugänge, hochschuldidaktischen Ansätze und Strategien zur Vernetzung innerhalb der Lehrerbildung, die im Rahmen von PSI-Potsdam entwickelt und umgesetzt wurden. Die Beiträge wurden mit dem Ziel verfasst, Kolleginnen und Kollegen an Universitäten und Hochschulen, Akteur_innen des Vorbereitungsdiensts sowie der Fort- und Weiterbildung von Lehrkräften möglichst konkrete Einblicke zu gewähren.
Unter der Herausgeberschaft von Prof. Dr. Andreas Borowski (Fachdidaktik Physik), Prof. Dr. Antje Ehlert (Inklusionspädagogik mit dem Förderschwerpunkt Lernen) und Prof. Dr. Helmut Prechtl (Fachdidaktik Biologie) vereinen sich Autor_innen mit breit gestreuter fachdidaktischer und bildungswissenschaftlicher Expertise.

(2023)
An der Universität Potsdam wird seit 2015 im Rahmen der „Qualitätsoffensive Lehrerbildung“ das Projekt „Professionalisierung – Schulpraktische Studien – Inklusion“ (PSI-Potsdam) durchgeführt und am Zentrum für Lehrerbildung und Bildungsforschung (ZeLB) koordiniert. Zur ersten Projektförderphase (2015-2018) erschien der Band „PSI-Potsdam – Ergebnisbericht zu den Aktivitäten im Rahmen der Qualitätsoffensive Lehrerbildung (2015-2018)“ zum Auftakt der Reihe „Potsdamer Beiträge zur Lehrerbildung und Bildungsforschung“.
Der vorliegende Band aus der gleichen Reihe gibt in den Kapiteln „Erhebungen“, „Lehrkonzepte“ und „Vernetzungen“ einen Überblick über alle Teilprojekte der zweiten Projektförderphase (2019-2023). Wissenschaftler:innen aus verschiedenen Fachdidaktiken, Fachwissenschaften sowie aus den Bildungswissenschaften und der Inklusionspädagogik haben im Rahmen des Projektes kooperiert. Sowohl praxisnahe Forschung als auch die Entwicklung neuer Lehrkonzepte sowie Strategien zur Vernetzung innerhalb der Lehrkräftebildung stehen im Fokus dieses Bandes. Die Praxisphasen, die im Rahmen des „Potsdamer Modells der Lehrerbildung“ eine zentrale Rolle spielen, wurden in einer großen Studie über alle Praxisphasen untersucht.
Der Band gibt interessante Einblicke in die Ergebnisse der Teilprojekte und Anregungen sowohl für die eigene Forschung als auch für Entwicklungsarbeit wie zum Beispiel die Entwicklung neuer Lehrkonzepte. Herausgegeben wird dieser Band von PD Dr. Jolanda Hermanns (Gesamtkoordinatorin PSI-Potsdam und Chemiedidaktikerin).
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.
Schulpraktika bilden die zentrale Grundlage der Lehrerbildung in Potsdam. Bereits im Potsdamer Modell der Lehrerbildung (1993) sind sie festgehalten, seit der Integration des Schulpraktikums (Praxissemesters) 2008 absolvieren alle Potsdamer Lehramtsstudierenden fünf Pflichtpraktika. Während die Ziele der Praktika klar beschrieben sind, sind die tatsächlichen Lernerfolge nicht immer klar – ebenso wenig, wie die Begleitung der Praktika aussehen muss, um die Studierenden bestmöglich zu unterstützen. Auch die Integration in weitere Lehrveranstaltungen des Studiums ist ein noch offenes Feld, das weiterer Betrachtung verdient. Die unterschiedliche Ausrichtung der Potsdamer Praktika, Perspektivwechsel im Orientierungs-/Integriertem Eingangspraktikum, Selbstreflektion im Praktikum in pädagogisch-psychologischen Handlungsfeldern, Unterricht als Profession in den Fachdidaktischen Tagespraktika, Anwendung von Diagnostik im psychodiagnostischen Praktikum und die Synthese all dessen im Schulpraktikum, bieten dafür zahlreiche Ansatzpunkte.
Schulpraktika sind nicht nur ein zentraler und von Studierenden hoch geschätzter Bestandteil des Studiums, sondern werden auch zunehmend für die Bildungsforschung interessant. Fragen nach der Kompetenzentwicklung, Selbsteinschätzungen und der Entwicklung der Reflexionsfähigkeit von Studierenden stehen dabei ebenso im Fokus wie die Einschätzung der universitären Begleitung und der Einbindung ins weitere Studium.
Der vorliegende Band versammelt Studien von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler der Universität Potsdam, die die fünf Pflichtpraktika im Lehramtsstudium unter unterschiedlichen Blickwinkel beforschen. Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass die Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen stammen und somit die Praktika mit verschiedenen Instrumenten und aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln betrachten. Die präsentierten Ergebnisse bilden eine gute Grundlage, um die Praktika in Potsdam und an anderen Standorten weiterzuentwickeln.
