... Since professional knowledge guides visual processing, the knowledge limits of teachers often prevent them from noticing relevant events due to the transient flow of information represented in a video case (Chandler, 2004). Particularly, novice teachers need additional instructional support, either from learning scaffolds (such as prompts) or through representational scaffolds (such as salience in video cases), that guide visual processing and professional vision (Fischer et al., 2022). Thereto, theories of multi-media learning in cognitive psychology are of relevance for designing effective instructional support (Derry et al., 2014). ...
... Generation after generation of students has come to enjoy chemistry after overcoming learning "barriers", but some of them fail and quit. Chemistry is one of the subjects considered difficult by students because they have to learn a lot of abstract things, one of which is in the nomenclature of chemicals (Redhana et al., 2017;Treagust et al., 2018;Schlüter et al., 2022). ...
... Während die oben beschriebenen Formen von Scaffolding primär in der Literatur beforscht wurden, liegen Unterstützungsmaßnahmen, die an der Komplexität der Lernumgebung oder der Salienz bestimmter Aspekte der Lernumgebung ansetzen, weniger stark im Fokus der Forschung. Diese Form der indirekten Unterstützung kann als repräsentationales Scaffolding bezeichnet werden ( Fischer et al., 2022). Die Verwendung von repräsentationalen Scaffolds ist ein vielversprechender Ansatz, da durch sie die Komplexität der Lernumgebung und die Salienz ihrer lernrelevanten Aspekte systematisch variiert werden kann (Chernikova et al., 2020;Stadler, Niepel & Greiff, 2019), um Lernende gemäß ihrem jeweiligen Wissensund Kompetenzstand zur Problemlösung zu befähigen (z. ...

... Even with both specialists, a project such as the one presented in this paper will only result in a limited number of high-quality scripted video cases produced. Thereto, it is highly important to have a joint integration of products available across teacher education programs in the form of open educational resources (Holodynski et al., 2022). However, in order to fully take advantage of these products, instructional information regarding learning goals and alignment with course methods and assessments is required (Blomberg et al., 2013). ...
... (Xia, et al, 2020) Due to their functions, digital media have high potential to support and offer the chance to present information in a variety of ways, e.g., visually and auditively or by mixing virtual and real environment. Additionally, adaptive and interactive functions can refer to the audience's level of knowledge and provide a means for the activity (Degner, et al, (2022). ...
... In den letzten Jahren haben sich im Kontext des Social Web eine Vielzahl äußerst heterogener und komplexer informeller Lernkulturen entwickelt (Jenkins 2006;Bachmair 2010;Sclater 2011;Hugger 2014;Biermann, Fromme & Verständig 2014), die als soziale Räume informeller Bildung bezeichnet werden können (Meder 2002;Iske 2015) und einen enormen Möglichkeitsraum f€ ur Lern-und Bildungsprozesse darstellen (Jörissen und Marotzki 2009). Gleichzeitig sind im Internet und insbesondere im Social Web jedoch Spaltungen, Ungleichheiten sowie Distinktions-und Schließungsprozesse zu beobachten. ...
... Similar findings are reflected in teacher education research: for example, both Stahnke and Blömeke (2021) and Grub et al. (2022) were able to show that experienced individuals identified more relevant events than less experienced ones. Regarding eye-tracking parameters, Wyss et al. (2021) showed that those teachers who detected a critical incident were more frequently fixating on it than those who did not detect the incident. ...
... Unsere Perspektiven für die kommenden Jahre . Dazu werden verschiedene Lehr-Lern-Materialien entwickelt, die auf eine praxisorientierte Kompetenz-und Evidenzbasierung in der Lehramtsausbildung abzielen und auch von anderen Standorten und Institutionen aller Phasen der Lehrkräftebildung genutzt werden können (Lewalter et al., 2018(Lewalter et al., , 2020 ...
... Particularly suitable sites to provide sociocultural situated environments for students to engage with might be museum exhibitions. Not only are museum exhibitions already known to play a key role in supporting the overall science literacy of society (Falk and Dierking, 2010) and to promote knowledge, interest, motivation, and attitudes (Falk and Dierking, 2010;Schwan et al., 2014;Phelan et al., 2017;Lewalter et al., 2021), due to their free-choice-learning they also offer "powerful opportunities for doing identity work" (Rounds, 2006, p. 133) in a way that might complement formal education in its efforts to help students become active energy literate citizens. ...
