Kommentar zum Themenblock „Angebots-Nutzungs-Modelle als Rahmung": Quo vadis deutsche Unterrichtsforschung? Modellierung von Angebot und Nutzung im Unterricht

This paper discusses current developments in opportunity-usage-models from a psychological perspective. Three points are made: first, opportunity structures in teaching need to be defined more clearly and coherently, particularly with regard to the Integration of teaching concepts from a general-didactical, content-didactical and educational-psychological perspective. Second, teaching models have profited from integrating process-oriented psychological theories in order to explain the usage of opportunities by individual students. However, further steps have to be taken with regard to Student activities and their role in being either part of the Provision of learning opportunities for others, or being part of internal usages. Third, opportunity-usage models have not so far reached high international visibility.
