Und diese Transfers sind eine erns...

The study described in this book arose in the contextof a three-year collective effort to bring about change in science teaching at Mountain Elementary School. 1 This opportunity emerged after I contacted the school with the idea to help teachers implement student-centered science teaching. At the same time, the teachers collectively had come to realize that their science teaching was not as exciting to children as it could be. They had recogn...

Since its beginnings, science education has been under the influence of psychological theories of knowing and learning, while in more recent years, social constructivist and sociological frameworks have also begun to emerge. With little work being done on showing how the perspectives of these separate approaches might be integrated, this work aims to plug the gap. The book helps lay the groundwork for reuniting sociological and psychological p...

Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple - die Trinität dieser Bands wird meist genannt, wenn zur Debatte steht, wer den Hardrock oder gar das Genre des Heavy Metal erfunden hat, sofern denn ein Genre erfunden werden kann und sich nicht vielmehr aus einer ziemlich unübersichtlichen Gemengelage zeit- und musikgeschichtlicher und vor allem zufälliger persönlicher Konstellationen entwickelt. Die Bedeutung von Led Zeppelin für die Entfaltung ein...

Researchers agree that schools construct a particular image of science, in which some characteristics are featured while others end up in oblivion. The result is that although most children are likely to be familiar with images of heroic scientists such as Einstein and Darwin, they rarely learn about the messy, day-to-day practice of science in which scientists are ordinary humans. Surprisingly, the process by which this imagination of science...

Children's learning and understanding of science during their pre-school years has been a neglected topic in the education literature-something this volume aims to redress. Paradigmatic notions of science education, with their focus on biologically governed development and age-specific accession to scientific concepts, have perpetuated this state of affairs. This book offers a very different perspective, however. It has its roots in the work o...

In this volume, leading science educators articulate in carefully prepared case studies their theoretical perspective on science, learning, and identity.

In a number of academic disciplines, auto/biography and auto/ethnography have become central means of critiquing of the ways in which research represents individuals and their cultures. Auto/biography and auto/ethnography are genres that blend ethnographic interests with life writing and they tell about a culture at the same time they tell about an individual life. This book presents educational researchers, in exemplary form, the possibilitie...

The author takes readers on a journey of a large number of issues in designing actual studies of knowing and learning in the classroom, exploring actual data, and putting readers face to face with problems that he actually or possibly encountered, and what he has done or possibly could have done. The reader subsequently sees the results of data collection in the different analyses provided. The author shows how one writes very different studie...

Language, Learning, Context aims to help educators understand the ways in which they use language and the sense in which they are as much subject to its possibilities as they are able to consciously mobilize those possibilities.

While visiting Vienna, the Shah of Persia falls for a beautiful countess. The Austrian officials arrange for him to spend the night with the "countess", but unbeknown to the Shah she is a prostitute who merely resembles the countess. From this night follows a chain of ruinous consequences.

This book deals with uncertainty and graphing in scientific discovery work from a social practice perspective. It is based on a 5-year ethnographic study in an advanced experimental biology laboratory. The book shows how, in discovery work where scientists do not initially know what to make of graphs, there is a great deal of uncertainty and scientists struggle in trying to make sense of what to make of graphs. Contrary to the belief that scie...

Aus der Erfahrung der Verbraucher, dass von Lebensmitteln eine Gefahr für die Gesundheit ausgehen kann, resultieren Anstrengungen des Gesetzgebers (vgl. VO (EG) Nr. 178/2002), der Hersteller von Lebensmitteln und des Handels, stufenübergreifende Qualitätssicherungs-und Rückverfolgbarkeitssysteme zu etablieren. Waren bisherige Systeme meist Insellösungen, die nicht miteinander kompatibel sind und zudem nur Daten von Teilbereichen abdecken, so i...

Sparen, sparen, sparen ist die Devise der meisten europäischen Politiker, denn nur dadurch sei die Krise zu bewältigen und der Wohlstand zu sichern. In Wirklichkeit geht es aber um etwas ganz anderes: Unter dem Deckmantel der Krisenbewältigung findet ein stiller Putsch gegen die europäischen Bürger statt. Bestsellerautor Jürgen Roth zeigt, wer die Putschisten sind und was sie bezwecken, was das für Deutschland und Europa bedeutet und wie wir u...
