Video-Based Action Research: A Guide to Incorporating Video Analysis Into Reflective Practice for Teacher Development
by Kimberly LebakThis book introduces the use of video analysis into the popular educational research model of action research. Video analysis has become increasingly common in teacher development for reflective practice, as well as within the teacher certification process as an assessment tool. Kimberly Lebak builds on this use of video with a model that integrates the opportunities afforded by action research and video analysis for meaningful teacher development. Her "how-to" guide brings the theoretical and practical together to show teachers how video can be a concrete artifact for unpacking and reflecting on the complexities inherent in educational contexts.Chapter content helps readers bridge the gap between research and practice. Examples of tools that can be used for getting started with video-based action research are embedded in the chapters, including planning tools to help pinpoint opportunities for using video to identify a meaningful research topic and develop a data collection plan and action plan; and reflective tools for viewing the videos from multiple perspectives. Teacher vignettes further cement the applicability of the video-based action research model.This book is ideal for use by teachers at all stages of their careers, including pre-service teachers just embarking on their careers and in-service teachers looking to examine and improve their practices along with the learning of their students. It will have an additional benefit in teacher education programs as well as in undergraduate- or graduate-level action research courses by academic researchers and teacher educators.
Video-based Research in Education: Cross-disciplinary Perspectives
by Lihua Xu George Aranda Wanty Widjaja David ClarkeThe rapid development of video technology in the last decade has changed the ways in which people communicate, how they learn, and how research is done. Video technology offers rich potential in capturing complex social interactions over a prolonged period of time and in supporting teacher professional learning and development. This book explores the ontological, epistemological, methodological, and ethical challenges associated with the different uses of video in research, ranging from video as a tool for investigating social interactions and for stimulating participants’ reflection, to the use of video for engaging varied communities and social groups in the process of teaching, learning and research. Each chapter presents the authors’ critical reflection on the ways in which video was employed, the research decisions made, the methodological challenges faced, and the consequences for how educational practices were understood. As such, it illustrates a wide range of philosophical and theoretical standpoints with respect to video-based research approaches. This book will stimulate broad and rich discussion among education researchers who are interested in video research and contributes to: advancing knowledge of the field; developing approaches to dealing with emergent ethical, theoretical, and methodological issues; and generating new protocols and guidelines for conducting video-based research across a variety of disciplinary areas in education.

Video in Social Science Research: Functions and Forms
by Kaye Haw Mark HadfieldIn this digital age the use of video in social science research has become commonplace. As sophistication has increased along with usability, as spiralling staff costs push out direct observation, the researchers training today are grasping video as a means of coming to terms with the continued pressure to produce accessible research. However, the ‘fit’ of technology with research is far from simple. Ideally placed to offer guidance to developing researchers, this new text draws together the theoretical, methodological and practical issues of effectively using video across the social sciences. This book concentrates on how researchers can benefit from the use of video in their own research, whether it is: Video as representation Video as an aid to reflection Video that generates participation Video, voice and articulation, or Video that acts as a provocation. In turn each of these five central functions is discussed in relation to different stages of the research process, consisting of: Research design Fieldwork and data collection Analysis of data and findings Dissemination. As a practical research tool this book shows how, why and when video should be used, representing an invaluable guide for postgraduate and doctoral students conducting research in the social sciences, as well as any researchers, academics or professionals interested in developing technologically informed research.

Videobasierte Kompetenzmessung in der universitären Lehrkräfteausbildung: Evidenz aus Literaturreviews und empirischen Untersuchungen (Perspektiven der Mathematikdidaktik)
by Jonas WeyersInnerhalb der Forschung zur professionellen Kompetenz von Lehrkräften kommen vermehrt videobasierte Kompetenzmessungen zum Einsatz. Durch die Kombination von Videomaterial unterrichtlicher Praxis mit spezifischen Testfragen sollen Rückschlüsse auf handlungsnahe Kompetenzen bzw. sogenannte situationsspezifische Fähigkeiten von Lehrkräften ermöglicht werden. Auf Basis von zwei Literaturreviews untersucht die vorliegende Arbeit die Konzeption und Erfassung situationsspezifischer Fähigkeiten am Beispiel des Konstrukts "Teacher Noticing", welches in der mathematikdidaktischen Forschung besonders verbreitet ist, und gibt einen umfassenden Überblick zu vorliegenden Testinstrumenten, die auf dieses Konstrukt abzielen. Insbesondere wird diskutiert, inwieweit unterschiedliche Messansätze zu vergleichbaren Ergebnissen führen und welche Konsequenzen sich aus der Heterogenität der Messansätze für den wissenschaftlichen Diskurs ergeben. Anhand zweier empirischer Arbeiten wird weiterführend geprüft, inwieweit anspruchsvolle videobasierte Kompetenzmessungen bereits mit Lehramtsstudierenden einsetzbar sind und Rückschlüsse auf deren Kompetenzentwicklung zulassen. Die Ergebnisse stützen dabei grundsätzlich die Einsetzbarkeit in der universitären Phase der Lehrkräfteausbildung, wobei sich nur geringe Zusammenhänge zu den Lerngelegenheiten innerhalb dieses Ausbildungsabschnitts zeigen.
Videobasierte Lehr-Lernformate zur Erfassung und Förderung professioneller Kompetenzen im Studium der Wirtschaftspädagogik
by Hannes SaasProfessionelle Kompetenzen haben entscheidenden Einfluss auf die individuelle Bewältigung beruflicher Anforderungssituationen und sind zentrale Voraussetzung für ein erfolgreiches berufliches Handeln. Die professionelle Kompetenz umfasst die Fähigkeit, flexibel auf das eigene Professionswissen zurückzugreifen und es zur Lösung komplexer, praxisnaher Probleme anzuwenden. Die Arbeit präsentiert einen hochschuldidaktischen Ansatz, der Studierende auf die Bewältigung dieser beruflichen Anforderungssituationen in wirtschaftspädagogischen Tätigkeitsfeldern vorbereitet. Zunächst werden die professionellen Kompetenzen von Wirtschaftspädagoginnen und -pädagogen ausdifferenziert. Zudem wird die ELMaWi-Validierungsstudie vorgestellt, aus der ein videobasiertes Testinstrument zur Erfassung aktionsbezogener und reflexiver Kompetenzen von Lehrkräften mit Fach Wirtschaft hervorging. Der Transfer dieses ELMaWi-Instruments in die universitäre Ausbildungspraxis ermöglicht eine valide Erfassung und Überprüfung der professionellen Kompetenzen von Studierenden der Wirtschaftspädagogik. Schließlich widmet sich der Autor der Konzeption und Überprüfung eines videobasierten Lehr-Lernformats zur fachspezifischen Förderung jener professioneller Kompetenzen, die zur Bewältigung komplexer Anforderungssituationen im schulischen und betrieblichen Handlungskontext erforderlich sind.
