Abstract (english): Concerning the improvement of the quality of education in guaranteeing equal opportunities for all children and young people, a major pedagogic controversy is taking place in the current discussions on education in Germany. Whilst the debate on quality has been very positive thus becoming powerful, "equal opportunities" as an educational role model have only played a subordinate role in recent years. With its penetration as a concept described as neo-liberal into the discussion on education, the demand is growing to combine the political and educational steps regarding the new offensive on quality with the improvement of equal opportunities. Through the discussion, questions concerning lesson format (direct instruction as a new method of teaching) and the competence of the teacher (subject and class leadership competence, diagnostic and didactic competence) have again become the centre of attention.
