Es kann von Wirkungszusammenhängen zwischen dem Lehramtsstudium und der Entwicklung professionellen Handelns ausgegangen werden. Zur Frage, wie professionelles Handeln während des Studiums gefördert werden kann, gibt es allerdings keine einheitliche Antwort beispielsweise das Curriculum oder hochschuldidaktische Ansätze betreffend. Ein hochschuldidaktischer Ansatz im Lehramtsstudium ist der des Forschenden Lernens. Hierbei soll sowohl das Erlernen von Unterrichten als auch das Erlernen von Forschen gefördert werden. Dieser doppelte Anspruch (Unterrichtenlernen und Forschenlernen) wird als sehr herausfordernd eingeschätzt, was sich ebenfalls in einigen empirischen Befunden widerspiegelt. Hieran knüpft diese Studie an, in dem die Perspektive Studierender in den Mittelpunkt gestellt wird und nach den subjektiven Theorien Studierender zu Unterrichtenlernen und zu Forschenlernen im Kontext Forschenden Lernens gefragt wird. Die Ergebnisse werden hinsichtlich konzeptioneller Ansprüche deshochschuldidaktischen Konzepts Forschenden Lernens diskutiert und es werden Anknüpfungspunkte für Wissenschaft und Praxis aufgezeigt.

In diesem Open-Access-Buch werden anhand einer kommunikationsanalytischen Studie unterschiedliche Konzepte der Ausbildenden und der Auszubildenden für die Unterrichtsnachbesprechung rekonstruiert. Die Unterrichtsnachbesprechung in der zweiten Phase der Lehrerausbildung gilt für viele Referendarinnen und Referendare als eine besondere Belastung innerhalb ihrer Ausbildung. Mit der Rekonstruktion der in NRW programmatischen Leitideen erwachsenenpädagogischer Prinzipien einerseits und den Positionierungen der Referendar:innen andererseits offenbaren sich diverse Spannungslagen in der Lehrer:innenbildung. Neben der strukturell angelegten Doppelfunktion der Ausbildung (Beratungund Beurteilung) sind es vor allem die unterschiedlichen Orientierungen der Beteiligten mit ihrer heterogenen Erwartungskultur, die die Kommunikation in Ausbildungskontexten stören.

Das Buch zeigt den Status quo im Bereich der schulischen Personalentwicklung an Gymnasien und Gemeinschaftsschulen mit Oberstufe durch Schulleitungsmitglieder auf. Neben theoretischen Grundlagen, die sich mit der Personalentwicklung im Kontext, mit Aufgaben und Zielen, Instrumenten, Maßnahmen, Strategien, Führung, Kompetenzprofilen, Prozessen sowie dem Ressourcenmanagement und Forschungsstand beschäftigen, wird die empirische Studie bezüglich Explikationen, Vorüberlegungen sowie Überlegungen zum Fragebogen ausgeführt. Der Status quo für Personalentwicklung wird für Schleswig-Holstein herausgestellt und Einschränkungen werden mit Handlungsschwerpunkten, die ein ganzheitliches Selbstverständnis fordern ¿ mit einer kooperativen Führung und der Schulleitung als Team, dargelegt. Neben diesen sind Beratungsgespräche der Schulleitung, schulinterne Weiterbildung und offene Gesprächsangebote bei der Verknüpfung der theoretischen und praktischen Aspekte unter Berücksichtigung des Gesundheitsmanagements zu präferieren, um die Verzahnung von schulischen, individuellen und gesellschaftlichen Zielen zu ermöglichen sowie fehlende Kenntnisse im Bereich der Personalentwicklung zu kompensieren. Wie das schulisch umgesetzt ist, erfahren Sie in diesem Buch.

This book addresses the critical gaps among understandings of teacher leadership across organizational and cultural contexts. It challenges the use of the term teacher leadership as if there is a widely shared understanding of what it is and what it means for exercising influence and making decisions. The book describes how implicit meanings and competing assumptions about teacher leadership may contribute to uncertainty and confusion in school communities. The authors caution against the incorporation of teacher leadership in international policy making discussions without adequate consideration of contextual, organizational, historical, and cultural differences that may lead to school community members struggling to accommodate the concept or, worse, ignoring other frameworks for facilitating more culturally appropriate decision making.This book shares the findings of research conducted in several North American, European, African, Latin-American, and Australasian contexts as part of the International Study of Teacher Leadership. Study findings are used to posit contextualized conceptualizations of teacher leadership and to offer a perspective for positioning researchers and practitioners in the international teacher leadership discourse.

This handbook presents a timeless, comprehensive, and up-to-date resource covering major issues in the field of teacher education research. In a global landscape where migration, inequality, climate change, political upheavals and strife continue to be broadly manifest, governments and scholars alike are increasingly considering what role education systems can play in achieving stability and managed, sustainable economic development. With growing awareness that the quality of education is very closely related to the quality of teachers and teaching, teacher education has moved into a key position in international debate and discussion. This volume brings together transnational perspectives to provide insight and evidence of current policy and practice in the field, covering issues such as teacher supply, preservice education, continuing professional learning, leadership development, professionalism and identity, comparative and policy studies, as well as gender, equity, and social justice.

The Third edition of this well-received and widely used Handbook brings together an entirely new set of chapters, to reflect progress and new themes in the ten years to 2022. Building on the established structure of the first two Handbooks, the four sections focus in turn on: philosophy, history and theory development; fresh perspectives on policy and policy development; emerging programs and new approaches; and re-imagining lifelong learning for future challenges.The Handbook stimulates readers with fresh and timely insights, while exploring anew some enduring themes. New topics and themes introduced in all sections address lifelong learning challenges associated with climate change, the digital world, the rise of populism, migration and precarious living. The Handbook features learning innovations and evolving pedagogies such as intergenerational learning, art as pedagogy to promote public-mindedness, neuroscience enhancing learning effectiveness, and lifelong learning for sustainability. Policy responses to lifelong learning for work and well-being are debated.In state of the art contributions, authors from around the globe focus readers' attention on multifaceted processes, issues and decisions that must be better understood and enacted if inclusive development and fair access to lifelong learning are to become realities for us all.
