Kritik an der heutigen Leistungsbeurteilung und entsprechende Verbesserungsvorschläge


Book Description

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Allgemein, Note: 1,0, Universität Trier, Veranstaltung: Leistungsbeurteilung in der Schule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Kritik an der schulischen Leistungsbeurteilung ist ein viel diskutiertes Thema und hat eine lange Tradition, sie ist "[v]ermutlich ebenso alt wie die Schule selbst [...]." Auch Jachmann merkt an, dass schulische Leistungsbewertung Familien, Lehrer, Pädagogik und Psychologie beschäftigt und, dass man sich Langezeit schon mit der "[...] Funktion, den Ausprägungsformen, den Schwächen und den Nebenfolgen von Leistungsbeurteilung durch Lehrkräfte. Dabei steht das Verfahren der Zensurgebung im Mittelpunkt der Kritik, zugleich werden Alternativen (insbesondere verbale Beurteilungen) erprobt und evaluiert." Bereits in den siebziger Jahren wurde die "Fragwürdigkeit von Zensurgebung" angezweifelt. Vergleichsstudien wie PISA oder TIMS belegten, dass Deutschland nicht, wie von vielen erwartet, zu den Spitzenreitern im internationalen Vergleich gehörte. Es folgten zahlreiche Veröffentlichungen, die die Leistungsbeurteilung in Deutschland kritisch beleuchteten. Die Kritik an Zensuren zog weitere Kritikpunkte mit sich. So beispielsweise die Kritik an der Objektivität und den Gütekriterien allgemein, der Aussagekraft und den Auswirkungen auf Schülerinnen und Schüler. Im Folgenden werde ich näher auf diese Kritikpunkte eingehen und Verbesserungsvorschläge.

Interthinking: Putting Talk to Work


Book Description

Written in an accessible and jargon-free style, Interthinking: putting talk to work explores the growing body of work on how people think creatively and productively together. Challenging purely individualistic accounts of human evolution and cognition, its internationally acclaimed authors provide analyses of real-life examples of collective thinking in everyday settings including workplaces, schools, rehearsal spaces and online environments. The authors use socio-cultural psychology to explain the processes involved in interthinking, to explore its creative power, but also to understand why collective thinking isn’t always productive or successful. With this knowledge we can maximise the constructive benefits of our ability to interthink, and understand the best ways in which we can help young people to develop, nurture and value that capability.

Rationality in the Social Sciences


Book Description

This volume presents for the first time a collection of historically important papers written on the concept of rationality in the social sciences. In 1939-40, the famed Austrian economist Joseph A. Schumpeter and the famous sociologist Talcott Parsons convened a faculty seminar at Harvard University on the topic of rationality. The first part includes their essays as well as papers by the Austrian phenomenologist Alfred Schütz, the sociologist Wilbert Moore, and the economist Rainer Schickele. Several younger economists and sociologists with bright futures also participated, including Alex Gerschenkron, John Dunlop, Paul M. Sweezy, and Wassily W. Leontief, who was later awarded the Nobel Prize for developing input-output analysis. The second part presents essays and commentaries written by today’s internationally noted social scientists and addressing the topic of rationality in social action from a broad range of perspectives. The book’s third and final part shares the recently discovered correspondence between the seminar principals regarding the original but failed plan to publish its proceedings. It also includes letters, not previously published, between Richard Grathoff, Walter M. Sprondel and Talcott Parsons on the rationality seminar and the exchanges between Parsons and Schütz.




Creating Value with Big Data Analytics


Book Description

Our newly digital world is generating an almost unimaginable amount of data about all of us. Such a vast amount of data is useless without plans and strategies that are designed to cope with its size and complexity, and which enable organisations to leverage the information to create value. This book is a refreshingly practical, yet theoretically sound roadmap to leveraging big data and analytics. Creating Value with Big Data Analytics provides a nuanced view of big data development, arguing that big data in itself is not a revolution but an evolution of the increasing availability of data that has been observed in recent times. Building on the authors’ extensive academic and practical knowledge, this book aims to provide managers and analysts with strategic directions and practical analytical solutions on how to create value from existing and new big data. By tying data and analytics to specific goals and processes for implementation, this is a much-needed book that will be essential reading for students and specialists of data analytics, marketing research, and customer relationship management.

Values of American Society


Book Description

The material in Values of American Society remains the principal resource for understanding Parsons' conception of value systems. His treatment of value systems has been much debated, although poorly understood, in considerable part because Parsons never published his full conception, developed only in these manuscripts. They continue to hold interest for social scientists, both for their carefully developed analytical scheme and for the resulting discussion of American culture and society.
