• How to improve science teacher effectiveness? In order to find answers to this question a first step in this study is a close observation and critical reflection on the level of science teacher training courses. During an international science teacher training course, which had been previously developed in a three-year European project (CAT4U), informal conversations of the participants were recorded and analysed allowing genuine insight in the ways that teachers exchange about profession-related content among themselves. This work is a first exploratory step into a fairly new field of professional development research, which hopes to come up with some reasonable hypotheses gained from the combination of current research literature and from deeper analyses of field data, that hopefully serves as an inspiration for teacher trainers in practice as well as for further educational research.
• Sönke Graf leistet mit seiner Arbeit einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Analyse und WeiterentWicklung von (internationalen) Bildungsangeboten für Lehrpersonen. Fachleute der Forschung zur Lehrerinnen- und Lehrerbildung flnden in der Disserlation eine Fülle von Anregungen für die Planung und die Durchführung von Weiterbildungsangeboten wie auch für deren Evaluation. - Peter Labudde, in: Beiträge zur Lehrerinnen- und Lehrerbildung, 38 (2) (2020), S. 310-311.
• Dr. Sönke Graf studied Physics and English at the University of Education Heidelberg and worked in the coordination of two international European projects developing science teacher trainings inside an international consortium (CAT4U) and promoting inquiry-based science education in schools among teachers and students (Chain Reaction). Early on in his career he was awarded the Michael-Raubal-Award for his exam thesis. He is currently lecturing physics at the University of Education Heidelberg and trains hard to run a full marathon.
