Project summary:

Three interrelated digital, video-based self-learning modules for training the professional perception of a central teaching characteristic, classroom management, are to be developed and evaluated at three joint locations (University of Cologne, University of Münster, Free University of Berlin). The self-learning modules can be used to flexibly and adaptively promote a basic professional competence in study phases of teacher training that prepare for and accompany practice. The self-study module to be developed at the Cologne location focuses on key moments of classroom management that are independent of the subject. The self-study modules comprise several modules with the following media-didactic structure: Each module begins with a tutorial on the sub-topic, which is followed by video-based tasks on professional perception, for which the users receive feedback. The Cologne site addresses several phases of classroom management: attention, situation perception and interpretation, and decision-making.

To adaptively support self-regulated learning, digital support tools are implemented on the basis of a media-didactic framework concept, the digital cognitive apprenticeship approach, which are intended to facilitate understanding and processing of the tasks through specific forms of feedback: A new grid procedure will be implemented for attentional attention, a closed item format with attribute isolation feedback will be developed for situation perception and interpretation as well as decision-making, and supplemented with expert ratings of the solution options offered. The usability of the self-learning module and the incremental effectiveness of the integrated support tools compared to classic learning formats will be evaluated.

The self-learning modules of all network partners are to be disseminated via a metavideo portal. Professional perception is also relevant for professional fields of action beyond teacher education. Other study programmes can use the self-learning modules envisaged here as prototypes for the profession-specific promotion of perception. For this purpose, the construction procedure will be documented in a manual.
