ICT in teacher education and ICT-related teacher professional development in Germany
Abstract
The integration of ICT into Germany's schools and teacher education has been more challenging than expected. The unfavourable results of international studies such as the International Computer and Information Literacy Study (IEA-ICILS) as well as national studies showed several areas in teacher education requiring improvement, specifically ICT use for teaching and learning. With a nation-wide strategy for ‘Education in the Digital World’, initial aims for schools and students' competencies were developed in 2016 and for the first time, explicitly expressed the need for the modernization of teacher education and teachers' professional development in the digital age. Moreover, the standards for teacher education were updated in 2018 and now cover aspects of teaching and learning with ICT as well as teacher competences related to innovation processes and ICT-related school improvement.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
