Reinders Duit – författare

This volume includes articles based on papers presented at the Second International Conference of the European Science Education Research Association (E.S.E.R.A.) held in Kiel, August 31 to September 4, 1999. About 300 colleagues, virtually from around the world - with a particular European focus - participated. Some 200 papers were presented. Three pages synopses of these papers were published in Proceedings of the conference (edited by Michael Komorek, Helga Behrendt, Helmut Dahncke, Reinders Duit, Wolfgang Gräber and Angela Kross). They are available from the IPN homepage: http://www.ipn.uni-kiel.de. The participants were asked to submit contributions to the present volume. It contains the invited plenary lectures and a selection of the submitted contributions based on reviews by an international board and the editors. The volume mirrors main lines of research in science education in Europe and around the world. The invited lectures provide overviews of the growth of science education research from the past to the present, including views of future developments. Major emphasis of empirical research still seems to be students' conceptions and conceptual change. About half of the contributions fall into that category. In addition, most of the remaining contributions deal with various cognitive issues of teaching and learning science. It was surprising for us that the number of studies on affective issues and gender differences was much smaller than expected.

Science -- and the technology derived from it -- is having a dramatic impact on the quality of our personal lives and the environment around us. Science will have an even greater impact on the lives of our students. The lives of scientifically literate students will be enriched by their understanding, appreciation, and enjoyment of the natural world. To prosper in the near future, all students must become scientifically literate and embrace the notion of life-long learning in science. Without scientific literacy, it will become impossible for students to make informed decisions about the interrelated educational, scientific, and social issues that will confront them in the future. Intended for science teachers, teacher educators, researchers, and administrators, this volume is concerned with the innovative research that is reforming how science is learned in schools. The chapters provide overviews of current research and illustrate how the findings of this research are being applied in schools. This research-based knowledge is essential for effective science instruction. The contributors are leading authorities in science education and their chapters draw clear connections among research, theory, and classroom practice. They provide excellent examples from science classes in which their research has reformed practice.This book will help educators develop the scientific literacy of students. It bridges the gap between cutting-edge research and classroom practice to provide educators with the knowledge they need to foster students' scientific literacy.

This volume is important because despite various external representations, such as analogies, metaphors, and visualizations being commonly used by physics teachers, educators and researchers, the notion of using the pedagogical functions of multiple representations to support teaching and learning is still a gap in physics education.

Dieses Lehrbuch hilft Lehramtsstudierenden, Referendaren und Lehrkräften der Physik besser zu verstehen, was sich hinter Schüleraussagen versteckt. Oft weichen Schülerantworten im Physikunterricht von dem ab, was man als Lehrkraft erwartet oder erhofft. Dahinter stehen Vorstellungen, die von den Alltagserfahrungen der Schülerinnen und Schüler geprägt sind. Für das Unterrichten und das Lernen von Physik ist von zentraler Bedeutung, was die Kinder und Jugendlichen an Vorwissen, Vorstellungen und Denkmustern bereits mitbringen. Auf dieser Grundlage verarbeiten Lernende neue Informationen. Die Autorinnen und Autoren stellen den Erkenntnisstand über Schülervorstellungen zu physikalischen Begriffen dar und stellen Lösungsmöglichkeiten für Probleme im Schulunterricht vor.In den ersten drei Kapiteln werden die theoretischen Grundlagen sowie Strategien des Umgangs mit Schülervorstellungen bei der Unterrichtsgestaltung erläutert. In zehn folgenden Themenkapiteln werdenkonkrete Schülervorstellungen vorgestellt, ihre Hintergründe erklärt und Vorschläge gemacht, wie man mit diesem Wissen Lernangebote besser gestalten kann. Die Inhaltsbereiche erstrecken sich vom Anfangsunterricht in der Grundschule bis hin zur gymnasialen Oberstufe. Dazu zählen die Mechanik, Optik, Elektrizitätslehre, Wärmelehre, Quantenphysik und weitere Gebiete sowie allgemeine Vorstellungen über die Physik als Wissenschaft.Die Leserinnen und Leser werden:-   typische Schülervorstellungen in wichtigen Gebieten der Physik kennen,-   auf Basis dieses Wissens Lernschwierigkeiten bei Schülerinnen und Schülern diagnostizieren können,-   wissen, wie man Lernenden helfen kann, ihre Vorstellungen weiterzuentwickeln,-   wissen, wo man Unterrichtskonzeptionen findet, die Schülervorstellungen berücksichtigen,-   Möglichkeiten kennen, wie man Schülervorstellungen bei der Unterrichtsplanung und -durchführung berücksichtigen kann, und nicht zuletzt-   die eigenen Vorstellungen zu zentralen physikalischen Konzepten fachlich durchdacht haben.Schülervorstellungen sind auch ein guter Anlass, die grundlegenden Begrifflichkeiten der Physik für sich selbst noch einmal fachlich zu durchdenken. Hierzu regt das vorliegende Lehrbuch mit fachlichen Erläuterungen an.
