Planspiele in der Hochschullehre


Book Description

Planspiele erfreuen sich in der akademischen Lehre zunehmender Beliebtheit. Ihr Einsatz an Hochschulen und Universitäten erfolgt bisher unterschiedlich, abhängig von Disziplin und Einsatzort. Wissenschaftliche Reflexionen über den Einsatz von Planspielen gibt es insgesamt nur wenige. Das vorliegende Sonderheft setzt hier an: Es werden unterschiedliche fachwissenschaftliche Diskussionen zusammengeführt und interessante Reflexionen von Anwender:innen über die eigenen Lehr- und Lernzusammenhänge versammelt. Die Bandbreite der bearbeiteten Themen reicht dabei von Überblicksdarstellungen der Literatur über Auseinandersetzungen mit verschiedenen Arten des Kompetenzerwerbs, Curricula und Prüfungsformen bis hin zu spezifischen Planspielen, wie Projektmanagement und der Führungskräfteausbildung. Ebenso werden innovative Formate und die Entwicklung digitaler Planspiele vorgestellt und diskutiert.




Simulation and Gaming for Social Impact

Planspiele - Vernetzung gestalten


Book Description

Vernetzung und Gestaltung von Vernetzung sind zentrale Themen dieses achten Bandes der ZMS-Schriftenreihe. Planspiele ermöglichen Lernen in und über Systeme, das Denken in Strukturen sowie das Erleben und Verstehen von Zusammenhängen. Sie eignen sich darüber hinaus hervorragend, wissenschaftlich-analytisches Wissen über die Realität und reale Systeme zu abstrahieren, zu vereinfachen, didaktisch aufzubereiten und dadurch verständlich und vermittelbar zu machen. Planspiele führen aber auch zur Vernetzung der Teilnehmenden. Sie erfordern von diesen, sich auf die Situation und die anderen Akteure einzulassen. Sie ermöglichen reale Interaktion, Austausch und Netzwerken zwischen allen Beteiligten. Planspiele können also selbst als Netzwerkgestalter verstanden werden. Ihr Einsatz bringt Informationen und Menschen zusammen und lässt neue, intensive Netzwerke entstehen. Die Beiträge in diesem Sammelband zeigen eine Vielzahl möglicher Perspektiven und Fragestellungen zum Themenfeld auf. Erstmals wurden viele davon einem Double-Blind Peer-Reviewverfahren unterzogen. Die hohe Qualität der Beiträge konnte dadurch nochmals gesteigert werden. Dieser Band entstand als Kooperationsprojekt des Zentrums für Managementsimulation der DHBW Stuttgart mit der SAGSAGA, der Gesellschaft für Planspiele in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz e. V.. Somit vertieft er auch die Vernetzung und Zusammenarbeit mit dem deutschsprachigen Planspielfachverband.










Europe at the Crossroads


Book Description

The extreme right wing is on the rise. And there are signs that part of the political mainstream in Europe, the US, and beyond is considering going along with far-right populist parties and their divisive, ethno-nationalist programmes. Europe at the Crossroads is an urgent scholarly response to the sociopolitical challenges that far-right programmes pose to the idea of a more egalitarian world. It offers an interdisciplinary explanation and critique of the dynamics of the far right in Europe – from Poland to the UK, from Sweden to Greece. The authors present immediate alternatives when tackling the exclusionary rhetoric and the politics of resentment. In formulating alternatives for a ‘social Europe’, each contributor critically assesses the current advance of far- right populism and the threat to liberal democracy since the global financial crisis of 2008 and the European refugee movement of 2015. Each chapter addresses the historical roots and normalization of the extreme right, whether Orbanism in Central and Eastern Europe since 2014, the Brexit campaign and referendum in the UK in 2016. As the slogan ‘Fortress Europe’ – once a pejorative term – now appeals to large numbers of voters, the authors also analyse the flash points in the run-up to the European Parliament elections in May 2019.

Good Teaching in Higher Education


Book Description

How do I plan my course? How can I inspire students? How do I present myself? How do I want to teach? How do I test correctly? What teaching methods are there? Due to the lack of comprehensive (university) didactic training, teachers too often have to answer these and many other questions for themselves. This book is intended to counteract this and presents practical tips on good university teaching for all disciplines based on the current state of research.




Simulation for Participatory Education


Book Description

This textbook explores the use of simulation within the context of education and internationalization. Simulation is broken down into its phases and these elements are discussed by experts, most of whom have long tradition in the application of simulation. Simulation is treated with references to the specific needs of practitioners, educators and researchers in initiating and developing simulation in different fields of study, with specific reference to teacher education. This volume focuses on presenting simulation as a means to facilitating students’ openness to complexity and development of intercultural skills through virtual exchange. Thus, it provides educators and researchers with a conceptual and practical resource that tackles the critical role of cognitive and metacognitive complexity in the education of future global professionals through intercultural pedagogy. By tracing the roots of simulation and outlining a framework to support professional learning through experiential-based research, this textbook will prove invaluable for teacher trainers, practitioners and researchers interested in simulation.




World Yearbook of Education 2016


Book Description

This latest volume in the World Yearbook of Education series examines the global education industry both in OECD* countries as well as developing countries, and presents the works of scholars based in different parts of the word who have significantly contributed to this area of research. Focusing on the areas of cross-over in public-private partnerships in education, WYBE 2016 critically examines the actors and factors that have propelled the global rise of the education industry. Split into three key sections, Part I explores how education agendas are shaped; Part II considers the private financing of education and the export of school improvements to professional consultancies; and Part III analyses new market niches, such as low-fee private schooling and for-profit education provisions. The book draws upon case studies of many global organizations, including: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Pearson Affordable Learning Fund Bridge International Academies Teach for All Omega Schools Co-edited by three internationally renowned scholars, Antoni Verger, Christopher Lubienski and Gita Steiner-Khamsi, WYBE 2016 will be a valuable resource for researchers, graduates and policy makers who are interested in the global education industry. *Convention on the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
