Publikation Was zeichnet eine hohe Schulentwicklungskapazität aus?(Beltz, 2022) Maag Merki , Katharina; Schäfer, Lisa; Rechsteiner, Beat; Wullschleger, Andrea; Compagnoni, Miriam; Rickenbacher, ArianeSchulentwicklung ist ein langfristiger Prozess, der in den Schulen kontinuierlich und mehr oder weniger explizit realisiert wird. Die Weiterentwicklung von Routinen ist dabei von hoher Relevanz. Wie gelingt das und was zeichnet Schulen mit einer hohen Entwicklungskapazität aus?01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Schulentwicklungskapazität als Voraussetzung für die Qualitätsentwicklung von schulischen Prozessen.

Collaboration networks in school teams(Elsevier, 01/2023) Wullschleger, Andrea; Vörös, András; Rechsteiner, Beat; Rickenbacher, Ariane; Maag Merki, KatharinaWhereas previous studies on teacher collaboration have focused almost exclusively on improving teaching, this paper investigates collaboration in three highly important school improvement areas. Data for three collaboration networks were collected in four secondary schools in Switzerland in 2018 on teachers exploring new ideas on teaching (teaching improvement), teamwork (team improvement), and school organization (organizational improvement). Using social network analysis, we examined to what extent the collaboration networks overlap, how network structures differ, and what factors explain these differences. The results revealed substantial differences between collaboration in the three areas. This suggests that future research should examine collaboration from a multidimensional network perspective.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Preconditions of teachers’ collaborative practice. New insights based on time-sampling data(European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction, 13.04.2022) Maag Merki, Katharina; Grob, Urs; Rechsteiner, Beat; Rickenbacher, Ariane; Wullschleger, AndreaPrevious findings on the preconditions of teachers’ collaboration are inconsistent. This might be related to the research methods used to assess the teachers’ collaborative practice. Retrospective assessments by self-report on a relatively general level prevail. The validity of these self-reports is limited, however. In contrast, time-sampling methods have the potential to investigate collaborative practice specifically and longitudinally as a day-to-day process over time validly. But to date, no research on collaborative activities in schools based on time-sampling methods is available. In this study, we extended the current state of research by analysing the variability and preconditions of teachers’ collaboration at four secondary schools over three weeks based on time-sampling data collected by a newly developed online practice log. Recorded were collaborative activities outside of teaching with a focus on administrative and organisational tasks and on school subject-specific tasks. The results revealed that teachers’ collaborative activities varied significantly between weekdays, showing a linear decrease from Monday to Friday, regardless of the content of collaboration. Collaboration that focused on administrative-organisational tasks seemed to be quite stable over the weeks and was hardly influenced by teachers’ individual characteristics. Instead, collaborative activities that focused on school subject-specific tasks varied significantly between weeks; moreover, they were influenced by teachers’ leadership role and gender. The results indicate that rather stable routinised patterns of day-to-day collaboration over the weeks decrease the influence of teachers’ individual characteristics. Hence, by collecting data that is closer to content-specific day-to-day collaborative activities, time-sampling methods can be seen as a driver for new insights.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation School teams’ regulation strategies for dealing with school-external expectations for school improvement(SAGE, 29.04.2022) Wullschleger, Andrea; Rickenbacher, Ariane; Rechsteiner, Beat; Grob, Urs; Maag Merki, KatharinaSchool-external expectations regarding implementation of reforms and innovations often do not lead to successful school improvement processes in schools. To better understand these processes in schools, this paper aims to investigate school improvement processes on a deep level by focusing on cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational regulation strategies used by school teams and by exploring what school-external and school-internal factors are related to this strategy use. Principals, teachers, and specialist teachers ( N = 1328) at 59 primary schools responded to an online questionnaire indicating their school’s use of regulation strategies on school improvement. Results from descriptive, variance, and hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed that school teams use all forms of school-based regulation strategies but that schools differ significantly in their strategy use. These differences were mainly explained more by school-internal deeper structures (e.g., task cohesion) and less by school-internal surface structures (e.g., school size) and not at all by school-external factors (e.g., governance systems).01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Teachers involved in school improvement. Analyzing mediating mechanisms of teachers’ boundary-crossing activities between leadership perception and teacher involvement(Elsevier, 08/2022) Rechsteiner, Beat; Compagnoni, Miriam; Wullschleger, Andrea; Schäfer, Lisa Maria; Rickenbacher, Ariane; Maag Merki, KatharinaTeachers are drivers for change in school improvement. However, not all teachers participate in further developing schools' educational practice. This study aimed to understand conditional factors in teachers' involvement. To this end, we analyzed teachers' leadership perception and boundary-crossing activities aimed at increasing professional capital. Structural equation modeling analyses based on a sample of N ¼ 1232 teachers at N ¼ 59 schools indicated partial mediations of cognitive and social boundarycrossing activities on the relationship between leadership perception and involvement. This study contributes to the literature by illuminating the potential of teachers’ activities to enhance professional capital for school improvement.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Kooperation von Lehrpersonen im Hinblick auf Schulentwicklung.
