Bildung und Nachhaltigkeit : historische Ursprünge und ökonomischeHintergründe einer widerspruchsreichen Beziehung

Der Begriff der Nachhaltigkeit ist in aller Munde und hat vielleicht gerade deswegen mittlerweile einen faden Beigeschmack. Entstanden ist er im Kontext der sogenannten „Ökokrise“, die als Sammlung mannigfaltiger Problemlagen die Gefährdung der menschlichen Re-Produktionsgrundlage in das Bewusstsein der gesellschaftspolitischen Öffentlichkeit der westlichen Industrienationen rückte. Angesichts der globalen menschlichen Notlagen hat die UNO die Jahre 2005 bis 2014 dann auch zur Dekade „Bildung für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung“ ausgerufen, in der es um individuelles wie gesamtgesellschaftliches Umdenken gehen soll. Forciert und gefördert werden Bildungsprozesse und -aufgaben, die es sich zum Ziel setzen, die nachfolgenden Generationen auf die von ihnen zu lösenden Aufgaben vorzubereiten, wobei im Nachhaltigkeitsdiskurs erstmals explizit Umwelt- und Entwicklungsfragen verbunden werden. Dies sind also nicht nur Fragen nach umweltpolitischen Entwicklungen, sondern auch Fragen nach einer global gerechten Verteilung der Ressourcen, sowohl in inter- als auch in intragenerativer Hinsicht

The Role of Occupational Therapy in Transition Programs for High School Students with Disabilities

Public schools are required to provide reasonable accommodations to students with disabilities. Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) include transition planning to prepare for life after graduation focusing on employment and independent living. Although these services are required, high school students with disabilities have lower rates of employment and independent living compared to their peers. OT services are reimbursed under IEPs, but there is a gap in service with under-utilization in transition planning. The purpose of this DCE was program development with the transition program, Project SEARCH, while also exploring the role OT has in transition planning for high school students with disabilities. The goal of this project was to improve work skills, self-advocacy, and independence of the students enrolled in this program. This was completed using objectives including, understanding the student’s perspective of their work performance, analyzing their work tasks, creating environmental modifications, providing direct support at internship sites to improve task completion and efficiency, leading group lessons and activities to support classroom learning, and assisting with instrumental activities of daily living such as community mobility and health management skills. These objectives were created to enhance the skill set of these students and ultimately their independence utilizing occupational therapy services

Celestina pintada por Picasso: nacimiento de un mito moderno

El personaje renacentista de Celestina experimentó, a partir del siglo XIX, un nuevo auge. No sólo reapareció en numerosos textos literarios, sino que también se convirtió en un frecuente motivo del arte pictórico. El pintor malagueño Pablo Picasso mostró un gusto especial por Celestina. A lo largo de su obra representó varias veces a la alcahueta, contribuyendo a su elevación a la categoría de mito moderno, esto es, según Roland Barthes, un objeto que transmite un mensaje complementario a su sentido propio. En el caso de Celestina, dicho mensaje remite a una identidad colectiva diametralmente opuesta a lo que se considera el buen gusto. El dibujo Celestina teje recurre al inventario metafórico del folklore para posibilitar la recepción del mito por parte de un público amplio. El retrato Celestina, cuyo modelo fue la dueña de un prostíbulo barcelonés, insiste en la función referencial de la alcahueta, gracias a la que el mito puede perpetuarse en el presente del pintor. Con los grabados de la Suite 347, Picasso reactualiza las prácticas editoriales propias del Renacimiento, haciendo dialogar sus pinturas con sus fuentes textuales. De esta manera, consigue destacar la esencia visual del mito celestinesco

Tunnel Vision: Urban Renewal in Rio de Janeiro, 1960-1975

Following the inauguration of the newly constructed capital of Brasília in April 1960, the former federal district and Brazilian capital of Rio de Janeiro was transformed into the city-state of Guanabara. Although Rio lost its status as the political capital of Brazil after nearly 200 years, extensive urban renewal campaigns to modernize the city were employed by numerous politicians, planners, architects, artists, and ordinary residents to help restore Rio's position as Brazil's "true" capital city. This dissertation examines these urban renewal efforts in Guanabara from 1960 to 1975 - a period when Rio de Janeiro experienced its largest period of population and spatial growth. Whereas many of the urban renewal campaigns and projects for development prior to 1945 were intended to beautify, embellish, and "civilize" the city, the projects of the 1960s and 1970s were highly technical and revolved around integrating the automobile into the urban landscape. The measures of investment and resources devoted to modernizing and reforming the city during the Guanabara period were unprecedented for Rio de Janeiro, consequently resulting in significant spatial, social, cultural, and economic reorganization of the city. "Tunnel Vision: Urban Renewal in Rio de Janeiro, 1960-1975" examines specific projects of urban renewal such as tunnels (Rebouças and Santa Bárbara), expressways, parks (Aterro do Flamengo), subways, overpasses, and beaches while also exploring the technocratic approach to urban planning which was demonstrated through attitudes and principles that often marginalized "non-expert" participation in reforming the city. Using diverse primary sources such as government and urban planning documents, as well as neighborhood association materials, this dissertation also considers broader historical issues such as the politics and culture of military regimes, as well as questions related to the built environment, comparative planning cultures, space, class, race, ethnicity, and popular culture. Furthermore, this study also argues that the politics and culture of urban planning in Rio de Janeiro during the Guanabara period mirrored many of the same political, cultural, and social tensions that existed throughout Brazil and Latin America before and after the Brazilian military coup of 1964
