Case-based Learning in the First Phase of Teacher Training

Case-based learning with videos is believed to enhance reflective and analytical skills in students of teaching. However, empirical evidence on the effects of case-based learning with instructional videos is still lacking and evaluation studies dominate in the area of continuing education. The study examines how video-based didactic arrangements affect the development of observation competence and education-related beliefs in the first phase of teacher education. Therefore video-based learning environments are compared with conventional forms of theoretical training in an experimental intervention design with a total of 300 students from the University of Tübingen. The intervention design is based on theoretical notions of situated and problem-oriented learning.
