Online-Lehre mit System: Wie man in der digitalen Lehre passgenaue Lernimpulse setzt und neue Lernerfahrungen ermöglicht (essentials)
by Martina EckertDieses Buch zeigt, wie eine gelungenen Online-Lehre an Hochschulen mit dem Lernzyklus-Modell von David Kolb aufgebaut und durchgeführt werden kann. Zu Beginn der Corona-Krise 2020 mussten Lehrkräfte an Hochschulen und in der Fort- und Weiterbildung sehr schnell von der Präsenzlehre auf Online-Lehre umschwenken. Nicht nur die technischen Herausforderungen waren zu bewältigen. Durch den veränderten Zugang waren didaktische Hürden zu nehmen und Lernende auf Distanz zu motivieren, zu instruieren und Lernprozesse zu steuern. In solchen radikalen Veränderungs-Situationen ist man auf Beispiele und Modelle angewiesen. Will man sich nicht in Versuch und Irrtum verschleißen, braucht man einen Orientierungsrahmen – ein Design. David Kolb hat in den 1970er Jahren bereits seinen Lernzyklus zum Erfahrungslernen vorgelegt. Er eignet sich hervorragend um zu verstehen: welche Lernschritte vollzogen werden müssen, damit Studierende Wissen erwerben und den Lerntransfer leisten können,welche unterschiedlichen Lernbedürfnisse und Lernstile Studierende haben und wie man diese motivierend bedient,wie man Lehrmaterialien und Instruktionen am besten gestaltet, um als Lehrende/r eine möglichst nachhaltige und ganzheitliche Lernerfahrung zu initiieren,welche Entlastungen sich mittelfristig in der Lehre durch Teil-Automatisierung in digitalen Lehrformen ergeben.Mit den neuen digitalen Möglichkeiten eröffnen sich jetzt neue und spannende Perspektiven in der Lehre. Dieses Buch gibt praxiserprobte Tipps, diese Chancen zu nutzen.

Only Connect: The Way to Save Our Schools
by Thomas Dyja Rudy CrewAn inspiring new vision for America's public schools from one of the nation's top educatorsAmerican fourth graders score twelfth in the world in math skills, after Latvia and Hungary. Our eighth graders are fifteenth, below Malaysia and Slovakia. And by the time they're fifteen years old, our students have slipped off the map—to twenty-fourth place internationally. If these stats don't make you angry or ashamed or plain sad, then at the very least they should make you afraid. If matters don't change soon, tens of millions of our sons and daughters will grow up unable to function—let alone compete—in a global economy. And the impact of that on all of us will be devastating. All is not lost, though, says Rudy Crew, who has headed some of the largest and most daunting school systems in America. Not by any means. Only Connect is a call for not just parents but the entire nation to reconceive our relationship with public education. If we're to survive, we must place our schools at the center of our communities and partner with them to produce children with the full set of the tools they'll need—personal, civic, and occupational as well as academic—to face the economic challenges that lie ahead. Much like Thomas Friedman in The World Is Flat, Crew shows us the reality of our schools in a new century, and what we each must do to create the next generation of mature and conscious contributors to society. From parents who demand only the best from their children and their schools, through our teachers and administrators, all the way to Washington, D.C., everyone has a role in restoring American education and America's competitive edge.

Ontological Fundamentals for Ethical Management: Heidegger and the Corporate World
by Dominik HeilThe book develops a philosophical foundation to the field of management education using the work of Martin Heidegger as a guiding philosophy. It asks the questions 'what is a corporation?' and 'what is corporate management?' These two questions are foundational for management thought in general and management ethics in particular. Most other academic fields are in some way defined and guided by a philosophical discourse. This philosophical discourse is largely missing in the field of management thought and education. Without this foundation it can never be clear what actually belongs into a certain academic discipline and what does not. It also therefore lacks a sound and well articulated ontological foundation critical for developing approaches to ethical management. This book seeks to fill this gap and consequently represents an interdisciplinary effort between the academic field of management/business administration and philosophy, which is vital for business ethics. Intended as required reading for an elective on philosophy of management that is offered annually at the Wits Business School / University of the Witwatersrand / Johannesburg. The structure of the course will be largely based on the structure of the book.

Onward: Cultivating Emotional Resilience in Educators
by Elena AguilarA practical framework to avoid burnout and keep great teachers teaching Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms—places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged. This book offers a path to resiliency to help teachers weather the storms and bounce back—and work toward banishing the rain for good. This actionable framework gives you concrete steps toward rediscovering yourself, your energy, and your passion for teaching. You’ll learn how a simple shift in mindset can affect your outlook, and how taking care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally is one of the most important things you can do. The companion workbook helps you put the framework into action, streamlining your way toward renewal and strength. Cultivate resilience with a four-part framework based on 12 key habits Uncover your true self, understand emotions, and use your energy where it counts Adopt a mindful, story-telling approach to communication and community building Keep learning, playing, and creating to create an environment of collective celebration By cultivating resilience in schools, we help ensure that we are working in, teaching in, and leading organizations where every child thrives, and where the potential of every child is recognized and nurtured. Onward provides a step-by-step plan for reigniting that spark.

Open Access and the Humanities
by Martin Paul EveIf you work in a university, you are almost certain to have heard the term 'open access' in the past couple of years. You may also have heard either that it is the utopian answer to all the problems of research dissemination or perhaps that it marks the beginning of an apocalyptic new era of 'pay-to-say' publishing. In this book, Martin Paul Eve sets out the histories, contexts and controversies for open access, specifically in the humanities. Broaching practical elements alongside economic histories, open licensing, monographs and funder policies, this book is a must-read for both those new to ideas about open-access scholarly communications and those with an already keen interest in the latest developments for the humanities. This title is also available as Open Access via Cambridge Books Online.
Open Admissions: The Poetics and Pedagogy of Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Adrienne Rich in the Era of Free College
by Danica SavonickIn Open Admissions Danica Savonick traces the largely untold story of the teaching experience of Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Adrienne Rich at the City University of New York (cuny) in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This period, during which cuny guaranteed tuition-free admission to every city high school graduate, was one of the most controversial in US educational history. Analyzing their archival teaching materials—syllabi, lesson plans, and assignments—alongside their published work, Savonick reveals how these renowned writers were also transformative educators who developed creative methods of teaching their students to navigate and change the world. In fact, many of their methods—such as student-led courses, collaborative public projects, and the publication of student writing—anticipated the kinds of student-centered and antiracist pedagogies that have become popular in recent years. In addition to recovering the pedagogical legacy of these writers, Savonick shows how teaching in cuny’s free and open classrooms fundamentally altered their writing and, with it, the course of American literature and feminist criticism.
