Practice report: Development research of digital media packages for the technology didactic professionalization of vocational teachers in the project TWIND

Abstract

The central goal of the joint project TWIND (Technology and Economics: Integrated Didactics) is to develop digital, multimedia-based learning packages on selected topics of vocational teacher training within the KMK subject profiles and the curriculum for vocational and business education. These will be made available nationwide to colleagues working in vocational teacher education, with the aim of strengthening and networking them. In the TWIND subprojects at the university Hannover and Darmstadt accompanying evaluations - in the form of standardized online surveys - are carried out continuously in the course of the development and implementation of the media packages. The development process of the media packages and the results of these partial evaluations are systematically reported and reflected in the article against the background of the current state of research on the questions A) "How must digital media packages be designed for vocational-technical didactic teacher training?" and B) "Which teaching-learning scenarios ensure a didactic embedding in university teaching that is conducive to learning?". The results are conclusions and reflections on the further development, optimization and didactic implementation of digital media packages.
