Abstract
The authors present the findings of the IPN video study which focussed on the description and explanation of teaching-learning-processes in physics instruction. The findings of this research project, which covered a period of six years, show, on the one hand, the uniform character of physics instruction in Germany with regard to class organization, goal orientation, learner support, the culture of handling mistakes, and experiments. On the other hand, the analyses reveal differential effects of teaching on learning development among students of both sexes: while characterictics such goal as orientation and experimenting influence above all cognitive learning development, learning support has a stronger impact on the development of attitudes and interest in physics.
