Co-operation relationships in the educational landscape network - all-day education at primary level

Social problems (differences/inequalities) and development requirements initiated by educational, social and labour market policies (all-day schools) are reflected in organisational development needs and measures that require concepts of educational action that go beyond the institutional tradition of differentiation. In the network of an educational landscape/educational region, school and socio-educational fields of action cooperate, among other things to reduce disadvantages in educational biographies that are dependent on origin, for example by conceptually integrating elementary education facilities into the school entry phase, implementing school social work or realising cooperative all-day formats. This is associated with changes in the development of learning cultures (structure of educational offers; didactic consequences) as well as the different subject-cultural maxims of professionalism (personnel development), which present cooperating educational settings as hybrid organisations with conceptual challenges in terms of pedagogical maxims and norms (dealing with differences and inequalities).

Educational biographies

In the understanding of educational biographical research, educational biographies are socially meaningful constructions of subjects whose specific interpretation can be reconstructed with a view to the individual life course. Life-historical experiences with the structures and institutions of the educational system and the practice of pedagogical action are associated with coping with transitional requirements, which manifest themselves primarily at the transitions of the educational system (daycare centre - primary school - lower secondary level). The system-immanent conditions of the current education and upbringing system can be determined and the effects of pedagogical action can be reconstructed both from the perspective of the addressees and the professional perspectives of the actors and their professional biographical lines of development. The institutionalised conditions of educational trajectories and subjectivation processes determined in this way provide conclusions for the development of criteria for the assessment of pedagogical action, as well as the reproduction of difference and inequality relations as a consequence of this and consequently important information for the conception of university didactic settings to promote professionalisation processes.

University didactic professionalisation strategies in the first phase of teacher training (research-based learning; casuistry; curriculum development)

In addition to research-based learning settings, casusitic approaches and structured curriculum development processes are seen as promising didactic and structural strategies for promoting professionalisation processes in the first phase of teacher training. Concepts of research-based learning are firmly anchored in the practical semester in Lower Saxony, among other things, and are intended to ensure the acquisition of research and evaluation skills as future tasks of prospective teachers in school development and to promote their understanding of the critical reception of research findings as well as evaluation procedures. Casuistic approaches follow case-orientated knowledge transfer for the theory-based and practice-related promotion of the ability to reflect as a characteristic of pedagogical professionalism. Both teaching methods are integrated into an educational science curriculum whose further development in line with current research findings and the changing task table of primary school teachers due to educational and socio-political developments, as well as the higher education didactic settings, entail research and evaluation requirements for the further development of the first phase of teacher training.
