Klassische Musterlösungs-Tutorien neu denken

Lehren am Übungsblatt in engen zeitlichen und fachlichen Rahmenbedingungen

Abstract

Tutorials accompanied by exercise sheets are classic teaching-learning activitites in under-graduate chemistry courses. Such sheets are also used in physics, mathematics, and other science-oriented subjects. In this paper, an exercise sheet-guided tutorial in chemistry was redesigned through implementation of innovative teaching concepts such as thinking classroom, sandwich structure, and theme-centered interaction (TCI). Both student ac-ceptance and learning success are evaluated and the question of whether the chosen meth-ods were a suitable choice for the development of problem-solving strategies by the stu-dents is discussed. Due to curricular circumstances, two groups of students learning un-der different conditions are compared and the impact of parallel courses offered at the same time as well as student attendance and absence in the tutorial are investigated. Unfor-tunately, a comprehensive activation of the students was not achieved through the selected methods and the high absence of students in the tutorial was identified as a further prob-lem.
