Students\u27 participation in upper secondary education - notions from students\u27 points of view and conditions of success

An die Schule wird der Anspruch gestellt, die Schüler/innen dazu zu befähigen, ein Leben lang selbstständig lernen zu können, Verantwortung für sich selbst, aber auch für Andere zu übernehmen und in einer demokratischen Gesellschaft teilzuhaben. Ein Baustein, um diese Bildungsziele von Schule zu erreichen, ist Schülermitbestimmung im Unterricht. Dabei werden Schüler/innen in Inhalts- und Methodenentscheidungen zum Unterricht einbezogen. Schülerleistungen werden in einem Dialog zwischen Schüler/inne/n und Lehrer/inne/n bewertet. Gleichwohl ist ein solcher Unterricht gerade in der Oberstufe an deutschen Gymnasien eher Utopie. Im Artikel werden Gelingensbedingungen für Schülermitbestimmung auf der Ebene der Lehrkräfte, der Schüler/innen sowie auf der Ebene der Einzelschule aufgezeigt. Zudem wird dargelegt, welche Mitbestimmungsmöglichkeiten im Unterricht sich die Schüler/innen selbst wünschen. Abschließend werden Aufgaben für die Lehrerausbildung sowie für die Gestaltung der einzelnen Schule abgeleitet. (DIPF/Orig.)School should enable pupils to learn independently, to take responsibility for themselves as well as for others and to participate in a democratic society. One step to reach these educational goals is to give the pupils a larger role in shaping the class. Pupils should be involved in decisions about the content and methods in school lessons. The achievements of pupils should be assessed in a dialog between pupils and teacher. These ideas are rather utopian, especially in German upper secondary schools. The following article discusses what is needed from teachers, pupils and the individual schools for a successful codetermination of the pupils. Furthermore, pupils\u27 ideas for more participation in class are presented. Finally, tasks for teacher education and for the organisation of schools are derived. (DIPF/Orig.

High field superconducting properties of Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2 thin films

The film investigated grew phase-pure and highly textured with in-plane and out-of-plane full width at half maximum, FWHM, of = 0.74° and = 0.9°, Suppl. S1. The sample, however, does contain a large density of ab-planar defects, as revealed by transition electron microscope (TEM) images of focused ion beam (FIB) cuts near the microbridges, Fig. 1. These defects are presumably stacking faults (i.e. missing FeAs layers)20. The reason for this defect formation (also observed on technical substrates)21 is not fully understood. Possible reasons are a partial As loss during deposition22, and relaxation processes in combination with the Fe buffer layer23. Estimating the distance between these intergrowths leads to values varying between 5 and 10 nm. Between the planar defects, an orientation contrast is visible in TEM (inset Fig. 1b), i.e. the brighter crystallites are slightly rotated either around (010) (out-of-plane spread, ) or around (001) (in-plane spread, ) and enclosed by dislocation networks or small-angle GBs. Since the crystallites are sandwiched between planar defects, an in-plane misorientation is most likely. The out-of-plane misorientation, on the other hand, is visible as a slight tilt of the ab-planar defects with respect to each other, especially in the upper part of the sample. No globular or columnar precipitates were found

Motor, cognitive and mobility deficits in 1000 geriatric patients : protocol of a quantitative observational study before and after routine clinical geriatric treatment – the ComOn-study

The currently available methods for diagnosis and for the evaluation of treatment in this vulnerable cohort are limited. The aims of the ComOn (COgnitive and Motor interactions in the Older populatioN) study are (i) to define quantitative markers with clinical relevance for motor and cognitive deficits, (ii) to investigate the interaction between both motor and cognitive deficits and (iii) to assess health status as well as treatment outcome of 1000 geriatric inpatients in hospitals of Kiel (Germany), Brescia (Italy), Porto (Portugal), Curitiba (Brazil) and Bochum (Germany). Methods: This is a prospective, explorative observational multi-center study. In addition to the comprehensive geriatric assessment, quantitative measures of reduced mobility and motor and cognitive deficits are performed before and after a two week's inpatient stay. Components of the assessment are mobile technology-based assessments of gait, balance and transfer performance, neuropsychological tests, frailty, sarcopenia, autonomic dysfunction and sensation, and questionnaires to assess behavioral deficits, activities of daily living, quality of life, fear of falling and dysphagia. Structural MRI and an unsupervised 24/7 home assessment of mobility are performed in a subgroup of participants. The study will also investigate the minimal clinically relevant change of the investigated parameters. Discussion: This study will help form a better understanding of symptoms and their complex interactions and treatment effects in a large geriatric cohort.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
