Glibber, Glimmer, Laserschwerter: Chemie-Experimente zuhause
by Katja Weirauch Tim Boshuis Patrick Gräb Ekkehard GeidelDieses Buch ist für alle TüftlerInnen geschrieben, die die Blaukraut- und Backpulver-Experimente aus dem Internet schon alle durchprobiert haben und denen der Chemiebaukasten auch nichts Neues mehr bieten kann. Ihr müsst nicht auf die nächste Chemiestunde in der Schule warten, um weitermachen zu können!Um Chemie zu betreiben, braucht man nicht unbedingt ein Labor. Chemische Experimente durchführen bedeutet aber auch nicht, einfach alles zusammenzuschütten, was der Putzschrank oder der Kühlschrank hergeben. Abgesehen davon, dass das durchaus gefährlich werden kann, passiert oft nichts. Oder es passiert etwas und keiner ist da, der einem erklären könnte, warum. Mit diesem Buch möchten wir euch Ideen und erste Anleitungen geben, mit denen ihr selbst weiterforschen könnt. Nach einer ersten Erklärung folgen mehrere Versuche, mit denen ihr eine chemische Untersuchungsmethode trainieren könnt – die euch fit machen soll, um dann euren eigenen Ideen nachgehen zu können. Für die Versuche benötigt ihr zum Teil besondere Materialien, die man aber alle käuflich erwerben kann. Legt los!
Global Perspectives on Dialogue in the Classroom: Cultivating Inclusive, Intersectional, and Authentic Conversations
by Ashmi Desai Hoa N. NguyenThis book explores globally-informed, culturally-rooted approaches to dialogue in the classroom. It seeks to fill gaps in communication and education literature related to decolonizing dialogue and breaking binaries by decentering Eurocentric perspectives and providing space for dialogic practices grounded in cultural wealth of students and teachers. We first describe the book’s genesis, contextualize dialogue within the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and share guiding concepts of inclusion, intersectionality, and authenticity in dialogue and pedagogy. We also distinguish dialogue from other practices and times in which dialogue may not be possible. The book brings fresh and urgent perspectives from authors across different disciplines, including ceramics, religious studies, cultural studies, communication, family therapy, and conflict resolution. The chapters distill the idea of dialogue within contexts like a bible circle, university sculpture studio, trauma and peacebuilding program, and connect dialogue to teaching, learning, and emerging ideas of power disruption, in-betweenness, and relationality.
Global Political Economy: Evolution and Dynamics, 6th ed
by Robert O'Brien Marc WilliamsOffering an accessible introduction to both the historical roots and the contemporary dynamics of today’s world economy, the extensively revised sixth edition of this bestselling textbook continues to lead the way in equipping students with the knowledge required to make sense of the fast-paced discipline of Global Political Economy. Illustrating the breadth of the subject, the book’s authors – both highly regarded experts in the field – show how the national and international interact, while also placing an emphasis on the historical evolution of the world economy in order to appreciate the nuances of today’s economic structures. The global economy is traced from the Industrial Revolution through each phase of a shifting world order to the modern day. Then follows an engaging exploration of the dynamics of today’s economy, including trade, production, finance, labour, gender, development, the environment, security and governance. This takes into account the latest developments in the global economy, from automation and the challenges posed to the labour force to artificial intelligence and the increasingly complex global supply chains of modern transnational firms. This is the most authoritative and accessible textbook on global political economy, making it the ideal companion for students at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, on Politics, International Relations and related degrees.
