Abstract

The upcoming and, in some cases, already initiated digital transformation of school education is associated with high demands on teaching staff. The lack of media education skills among teachers in many places can only be addressed with the help of relevant training programs on media pedagogical topics. For teacher training and further education, the question arises as to how learning environments can be designed in order to support the acquisition of knowledge and skills by teachers. In this paper, we attempt to answer the following research question: How is the knowledge acquisition of teachers in asynchronous online training courses is influenced by conceptual (and personal) characteristics? To this end, empirical findings are generated and a framework for the influence of conceptual and personal characteristics on knowledge acquisition is derived. The results provide a basis for discussion regarding the use and design of online learning environments in teacher education.
