Stephanie Kreuz betritt mit ihrer Forschung in zweierlei Hinsicht Neuland: Mit ihrer mikrosoziologischen Analyse der Trainingsgemeinschaften Jugendlicher und junger Erwachsener im Fitnessstudio nimmt sie kommerzialisierte Handlungsräume in den Blick, welche bislang in der erziehungs- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Jugendforschung als potentielle Sozialisationsräume deutlich unterbelichtet sind. Auf methodologischer Ebene wählt sie mit dem Forschungszugang über Gruppendiskussion und videobasierte Selbstaufzeichnung ein innovatives Forschungsdesign. Die methodologisch anspruchsvolle Triangulation des empirischen Materials vollzieht sie ausgehend von einer neuartigen transferierenden Auswertungsstrategie, welche die textbasierten und audiovisuellen Daten konsequent miteinander vermittelnd in den Blick nimmt.

This book showcases the quality work that Latin American researchers have done on transition to school in Latin American countries by offering the English-speaking world, first-hand access to some Latin American transitions research, practices, and policies. This book shows the work carried out in countries such as Brazil, Chile, Cuba, and Mexico with regards to the way in which the transition to primary school is experienced from different stakeholders' perspectives, and how Latin American educational policies and cultural practices shape such an important process for stakeholders. This book was importantly framed by the COVID-19 pandemic which placed the world in a global health emergency, and it is our hope that this book will trigger future international collaborations between researchers, policy makers, and practitioners interested in transitions which could help produce a wealth of empirical evidence to inform educational policies and transitions practices across the world. Building networks where diverse experiences are valued and respected, as well as analysed, can help provide a platform that supports educators and researchers as they continue their work and branch out in new and challenging directions.

Zahlreiche Studien zu den Folgen der Digitalisierung für Arbeitsmärkte weisen auf einen damit einhergehenden Tätigkeitswandel hin, der sich in einem Rückgang substituierbarer Routinetätigkeiten und einer Zunahme analytischer und interaktiver Nicht-Routinetätigkeiten äußert. Fortschritte u.a. in künstlicher Intelligenz erweitern die Automatisierungsmöglichkeiten. Um mit diesen Veränderungen Schritt halten zu können, wird Weiterbildung große Bedeutung beigemessen. Besonders wichtig erscheint dies für Beschäftigte mit vielen automatisierbaren Tätigkeiten. In diesem Buch wird untersucht, inwieweit diese Personen an Weiterbildung teilnehmen und ob die Bildungsmaßnahmen einen entsprechenden Nutzen bringen. Analysen auf Basis des Nationalen Bildungspanels zeigen, dass Beschäftigte mit hohem Automatisierungsrisiko eine tendenziell geringere Weiterbildungswahrscheinlichkeit aufweisen, während Weiterbildungserträge durchaus existieren. Je nach Weiterbildungs- bzw. Ertragsform und unter Berücksichtigung der Heterogenität der Beschäftigten ergeben sich z.T. deutliche Unterschiede, die die Relevanz einer differenzierten Betrachtung, auch für die Ableitung politischer Implikationen, verdeutlichen.

This book offers a groundbreaking approach to bridging the gap between various disciplines involved in cognitive modeling in education. By drawing on the fields of learning, neuro science, cognitive science, neurobiology, and computer science, it provides a new perspective on how we can integrate these disciplines with education to create more effective learning environments. The main objective of this book is to delve into the ethical, sociological, and technological questions surrounding the introduction of intelligent and smart learning environments in education. By analyzing these issues, this book aims to bridge the gap between the various disciplines involved in cognitive modeling and education, while highlighting the benefits and risks associated with these advancements. With the emergence of AI-based tutors, coaches, and learning environments, students now have access to a new type of self-learning and self-training that was previously unavailable. Distance learning has become increasingly popular in recent years, and the use of computer-assisted learning tools has revolutionized the way we think about education.The goal of education must be to instill in students a desire to learn for themselves, and this can only be achieved through active, self-directed, and reflective learning. With intelligent tutoring systems, students are empowered to take an active role in their own education, rather than simply being passive recipients of information. This book offers practical strategies for teachers to facilitate this transition, enabling them to act as facilitators and guides rather than one-way communicators. By embracing this new approach to education, we can help students become lifelong learners who are equipped with the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century.As we cannot predict the future with certainty, the true effects of education may only be revealed in the long run, making it critical to understand the potential consequencesof introducing these new learning tools. By exploring these complex topics, this book offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of education.

Through this book, the author examines the role of music education within the larger global education movement. Specifically, the author argues music education has unique potential to foster positive global identity and to promote higher levels of intercultural sensitivity during adolescence.Music educators can use the framework in this book to craft lessons that will help their adolescent students develop positive global identities as they progress towards higher levels of intercultural sensitivity within the context of musical learning experiences. The book also offers a framework that can help practicing and pre-service music educators to engage in the type of cultural and musical self-reflection needed to resist deeply engrained hegemonic tendencies. As such, more students have access to an inclusive, flexible, and meaningful musical education.Within the final two chapters, the author proposes - and provides concrete examples of - a new curricular planning strategy for music educators which synthesizes the information presented in the preceding chapters and provides a concrete vision for (re)imagining music education as global education.

This book explores intersections between sense of place, the formation of identity, indigeneity and colonisation, literature and literary study, the arts, and a revisioned school curriculum for the Anthropocene. Underpinning the book is a conviction that sense of place is central to the fostering of the change of heart required to secure the survival of human life on earth. It offers a coherent overview of seemingly disparate realities on a geographically and historically sprawling canvas.The book is a work of literary non-fiction, drawing on a range of sources: literary works and criticism, theoretical research, empirical studies and artworks. Of its very nature, the book enacts an extensive cultural critique. After establishing a cross-disciplinary foundation for ¿sense of place¿, the book describes its relationship to identity with reference to such terms as attachment, dispossession, reclamation and representation. It shows how a hopeful narrative for planet stewardship can be developed by the uptake of indigenous and traditional discourses of place. It concludes with the envisioning of a place-conscious curriculum, and ways in which an activist agenda might be pursued in the Anthropocene.

Talented political scientist, M Amphas Mampoua exposes unexpected reality of hopeless continent that has transformed to a continent of hope with wealth that fascinates us Its subsoil is full of natural resources which makes Africa rich everywhere, preventing the continent from seeking foreign funding when well managed. Today, the continent is overcoming the problems of civil wars, genocide and famine in which Ethiopia faced during the year 1984-1985.At the same time, there are signs of reasonable governance and the consolidation of democracy. In each region of Africa, elections took place with both the participation of government and opposition. The continent is on the right track with encouraging economic growth, and it will become competitive as Asia and Europe. Still, job creation strategies have yet to be put in place to absorb youth unemployment. M Amphas Mampoua also shows how debt forgiveness of Africa will stimulate competitive market. Africa today has become a continent of poverty because its foreign debt is larger than its export income.

Amphas Mampoua is a professor of Political Science and International Relations at the American University for Leaders in London. He specializes in Comparative Politics with issues such as governance, democracy and civil wars in Africa. Also, his research explores security issues in Europe and US.
