During the COVID-19-related school closures teachers and students were challenged to suddenly switch digital teaching at a distance. In particular, challenge was organize high-quality in which stay on task. Familiarity with technology may have helped master situation. However, only few studies so far examined quality of distance (e.g., cognitive activation) during its relation students' learning effort investment). Moreover, systematic research concerning role familiarity technology-enhanced acquired face-to-face is yet lacking. our study, we used data from 729 ninth graders investigate how student-observed activities when using related two subjects (mathematics, German). addition, whether student-perceived activation mediated this relation. Finally, sample provides unique opportunity examine familiarity, as some classes had been randomly equipped tablet computers one year before thus gain classroom. Results structural equation models showed that associated both subjects. Student-perceived association. gained COVID-19 pandemic appeared be less important for teaching. Thus, infrastructural measures, such equipping schools devices can familiarize themselves technology, do not seem decisive (distance) teaching-at least case short-term change teaching, necessary pandemic.

Technology integration is regarded as a crucial and complex endeavour to enhance students’ learning prepare them participate in digital society. Although the research landscape on teachers’ technology vivid stimulating, an analytical model which synthesises different strands of antecedents (i.e., professional competences), processes outcomes integrated manner missing. That said, previous was often rather product-oriented ignored potential effects their achievement. To fill this gap, paper, we outline preliminary model, TPTI-model (teachers’ competence for integration), deliberately link perspectives competences, vision (processes) during teaching. Based TPTI-model, propose future directions, may allow gain better understanding teacher- student-related conditions well learning.
