Fallbasierte Arbeit zu Fragen inklusiver Bildung. Eine universitätsübergreifende digitale Kooperation von Studierenden des allgemeinen und sonderpädagogischen Lehramtes

Der Beitrag stellt eine universitätsübergreifende digitale Fallarbeit zur inklusiven Bildung vor. Diese wurde als Kooperation des allgemeinen und des sonderpädagogischen Lehramts im Sommersemester 2020 und 2021 an der RWTH Aachen University und der Leibniz Universität Hannover durchgeführt. Auf Basis von Interviewmaterial aus dem BMBF-Verbundprojekt „Reflexion, Leistung und Inklusion“ und eingebunden in das Programm DiLINK fokussiert die Fallarbeit das Rausgehen als Phänomen der leistungsbezogenen äußeren Differenzierung aus Sicht von Schüler:innen der Sekundarstufe I. Die digitale Fallarbeit umfasst in Verbindung mit einer Phase des Selbststudiums die Arbeit in hochschulübergreifenden studentischen Kleingruppen, um die aktive Beteiligung der Studierenden zu unterstützen. Der Beitrag gewährt in Verbindung mit einer zusammenfassenden Darstellung der Konzeption und Erprobung einen Einblick in die konkreten Erfahrungen einer Teilnehmerin. Zudem werden anschließende Fragen der Kooperation über die Distanz diskutiert. (DIPF/Orig.

Depicting the tree of life in museums: guiding principles from psychological research

The Tree of Life is revolutionizing our understanding of life on Earth, and, accordingly, evolutionary trees are increasingly important parts of exhibits on biodiversity and evolution. The authors argue that in using these trees to effectively communicate evolutionary principles, museums need to take into account research results from cognitive, developmental, and educational psychology while maintaining a focus on visitor engagement and enjoyment. Six guiding principles for depicting evolutionary trees in museum exhibits distilled from this research literature were used to evaluate five current or recent museum trees. One of the trees was then redesigned in light of the research while preserving the exhibit’s original learning goals. By attending both to traditional factors that influence museum exhibit design and to psychological research on how people understand diagrams in general and Tree of Life graphics in particular, museums can play a key role in fostering 21st century scientific literacy

Search for dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks in √s = 13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

A search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and miss- ing transverse momentum are considered. The analysis uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at √s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. No significant excess of events above the estimated backgrounds is observed. The results are in- terpreted in the framework of simplified models of spin-0 dark-matter mediators. For colour- neutral spin-0 mediators produced in association with top quarks and decaying into a pair of dark-matter particles, mediator masses below 50 GeV are excluded assuming a dark-matter candidate mass of 1 GeV and unitary couplings. For scalar and pseudoscalar mediators produced in association with bottom quarks, the search sets limits on the production cross- section of 300 times the predicted rate for mediators with masses between 10 and 50 GeV and assuming a dark-matter mass of 1 GeV and unitary coupling. Constraints on colour- charged scalar simplified models are also presented. Assuming a dark-matter particle mass of 35 GeV, mediator particles with mass below 1.1 TeV are excluded for couplings yielding a dark-matter relic density consistent with measurements
