The Power of Video Studies in Investigating Teaching and Learning in the Classroom
Video study is a complex methodological approach, which enables the employing of various strategies, methods or techniques for generating, collecting and analysing video data, i.e. audiovisual data grounded in rich situational contexts. Section I focuses on the power of video to describe the dynamics of teaching and learning in the classroom. It presents various video studies conducted in the past fifteen years that aimed to describe the practices of teaching. Section II focuses on the use of video in investigating the effects of teaching on student learning. The chapters present approaches that build on video studies in order to link data about classroom processes with data about learning outcomes. The chapters in section III discuss possibilities offered by the use of video in professional development of teachers.
Assessing Contexts of Learning
This volume brings together educational effectiveness research and international large-scale assessments, demonstrating how the two fields can be applied to inspire and improve each other, and providing readers direct links to instruments that cover a broad range of topics and have been shown to work in more than 70 countries. The book’s initial chapters introduce and summarize recent discussions and developments in the conceptualization, implementation, and evaluation of international large-scale context assessments and provide an outlook on possible future developments. Subsequently, three thematic sections – “Student Background”, “Outcomes of Education Beyond Achievement”, and...

Kompetenzdiagnostik
Kompetenzdiagnostik: ein neues Schlagwort, mit dem viele Hoffnungen verbunden werden. Hintergrund für das Interesse am Thema sind zum einen Schwächen üblicher diagnostischer Verfahren, wie z.B. Probleme der Validität und Aussagekraft der bisherigen Erfassung von Lernvoraussetzungen und Lernergebnissen. Zum anderen aber gibt es etliche neue Methoden, neue Zugänge, über die zu informieren sich lohnt. Das Sonderheft der ZfE zielt auf die Klärung grundlegender Fragen, die Präsentation des gegenwärtigen Forschungsstandes und die Darstellung neuer Ansätze der Kompetenzdiagnostik.
The Role of International Large-Scale Assessments: Perspectives from Technology, Economy, and Educational Research
This volume offers contributions by thought leaders from a variety of disciplines and different perspectives, which are brought together in a final chapter. The contributions give insight in the role of large-scale international assessments as change agents. As national leaders recognize the growing importance of human capital and how it is distributed, policymakers, economists and decision makers in education have become increasingly interested in results from comparative international surveys. These assessments offer important information on the development of cognitive skills and the consequences of differences in the distribution of these skills. Researchers use the data to assess the role of human capital in predicting outcomes and to identify factors that may contribute to the development of more human capital. An invaluable resource for researchers in international comparative education, policy studies, economics, civics education, educational technology, and policy makers.
Unterrichtsqualität aus Sicht der Lernenden
Diese Doktorarbeit wurde im Anschluss an das Schul- und Unterrichtsentwicklungsprojekt "Schulen zum Leben" geschrieben, das in den Jahren 2016 bis 2018 an ausgewählten Schulen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern durchgeführt wurde. Die Fortbildungen im Rahmen dieses Projekts knüpften an aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse im Rahmen von "Visible Learning" (John Hattie) und den daraus hervorgegangenen Kernbotschaften für die Schul- und Unterrichtspraxis an und unternahmen den Versuch, Lehrerprofessionalität und infolgedessen auch die Unterrichtsqualität der teilnehmenden Projektschulen weiter zu entwickeln. Die Entwicklung von Unterricht kann vor allem dann gelingen, wenn die Sichtweise der Lernenden berücksichtigt wird. Deshalb steht in dieser quantitativen Untersuchung die Erforschung der Schülersicht auf das Projekt "Schulen zum Leben" im Fokus und geht der Frage nach, inwiefern die Fortbildungen des Projekts zu einer Entwicklung der Unterrichtsqualität führten.
Expertise in Mathematics Instruction
Accumulated research findings in past decades have led to the common knowledge that teachers’ professional knowledge is essential to effective classroom instruction. However, there is still very limited understanding about the nature of teachers’ expertise in mathematics instruction. Expertise in Mathematics Instruction addresses this need clearly and concisely. In particular, it examines all aspects of emphases employed to characterize the nature of expertise in mathematics instruction from both researchers’ and practitioners’ perspectives. Moreover, with research contributions from both the East and the West, this book also examines ideas pertinent to fostering and demonstrating ex...
