The Development of personal and professional attributes of students in a physics content media course — •Kathleen Falconer, Stefan Hoffmann, and André Bresges — Institut für Physikdidaktik, Universität zu Köln, Deutschland

The Medienpraktikum I and Medienpraktikum II were courses developed to improve the media competences of the HRSeG (Haupt-, Real, Sekundar- Gesamtschule), SoPäd (Sonderpädagogik) , and GymGe (Gymnasium Gesamtschule) physics education students. The courses focus on the use and production of media, including videos, simulations, animations, iBooks, etc. Using a Problem Based Learning (PBL) approach, the students work on creation, implementation and embedding of a media product for a particular context. While the personal and professional attributes of successful students in physics have been studied, the same can*t be said for physics students who create physics content media for use in the classroom. We will discuss the changes in the personal and professional attributes of students in the Medienpraktikum courses. The students* reflective writings and pre/post online surveys were analyzed using grounded theory. In a preliminary analysis, the students* view of self-management and self-motivation, especially in regards to peer/group learning seems to develop through their experiences in the course. There is mixed evidence for change in the students* worldview viability of the creation of media for classrooms. Their view of the usage and utility of media seems to be changeable as well.
