The Significance Of New Media In The Lives Of Male And Female Adolescents Of Different School Types: How Can Biographical And Generation-Specific Educational Potentials Be Used Through Changed Learning Arrangements In School?

Die vorliegende Vergleichsuntersuchung zwischen einer 9. Realschulklasse einer Mittelstadt in Baden-Württemberg und einer 9. Gymnasialklasse einer Mittelstadt in NRW versteht sich als explorative Vorstudie zu einer qualitativen Untersuchung zum Themenkomplex «Gender / Neue Medien / Jugendliche unterschiedlicher Schulformen». Das forschungsleitende Interesse für die (längerfristig angelegte) gender- und medienbezogene Jugendstudie zielt auf die Beantwortung der Frage, wie sich Lernen, Bildung und Sozialisation durch den Umgang mit den neuen Medien verändern – und wie in unterschiedlichen Schulformen eine gendersensitive Auseinandersetzung mit den Möglichkeiten der neuen Medien aussehen könnte.The present comparative study between a 9th secondary school class in a medium-sized town in Baden-Württemberg and a 9th grammar school class in a medium-sized town in North Rhine-Westphalia is intended as an explorative preliminary study for a qualitative study on the complex of topics "Gender / New Media / Young People of Different School Types". The research-guiding interest for the (longer-term) gender- and media-related youth study aims to answer the question of how learning, education and socialisation change through dealing with the new media - and how a gender-sensitive engagement with the possibilities of the new media could look in different types of schools

Biographie, Generation, Gender im Hinblick auf die Nutzung neuer Medien: Was bewirken veränderte Lernarrangements in der Schule?

Die vorliegende Vergleichsuntersuchung zwischen einer 9. Realschulklasse einer Mittelstadt in Baden-Württemberg und einer 9. Gymnasialklasse einer Mittelstadt in NRW versteht sich als Pilotstudie zu einer qualitativen Untersuchung zum Themenkomplex „Gender/Neue Medien/Jugendliche unterschiedlicher Schulformen“ (Leitung: Prof. Dr. S. Buchen). Das forschungsleitende Interesse für die (längerfristig angelegte) gender- und medienbezogene Jugendstudie zielt auf die Beantwortung der Frage, wie sich Lernen, Bildung und Sozialisation durch den Umgang mit den neuen Medien verändern, und wie in unterschiedlichen Schulformen eine gendersensitive Auseinandersetzung mit den Möglichkeiten der neuen Medien aussieht bzw. aussehen könnte

Colon Capsule Endoscopy: Indications, Findings, and Complications – Data from a Prospective German Colon Capsule Registry Trial (DEKOR)

Background/Aims Reliable and especially widely accepted preventive measures are crucial to further reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC). Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) might increase the screening numbers among patients unable or unwilling to undergo conventional colonoscopy. This registry trial aimed to document and determine the CCE indications, findings, complications, and adverse events in outpatient practices and clinics throughout Germany. Methods Patients undergoing CCE between 2010 and 2015 were enrolled in this prospective multicenter registry trial at six German centers. Patient demographics, outcomes, and complications were evaluated. Results A total of 161 patients were included. Of the CCE evaluations, 111 (68.9%) were considered successful. Pathological findings in the colon (n=92, 60.1%) and in the remaining gastrointestinal tract (n=38, 24.8%) were recorded. The main finding was the presence of polyps (n=52, 32.3%). Furthermore, five carcinomas (3.1%) were detected and histologically confirmed later. Adequate bowel cleanliness was more likely to be achieved in the outpatient setting (p<0.0001). Interestingly, 85 patients (55.6%) chose to undergo CCE based on personal motivation. Conclusions CCE seems to be a reliable and safe endoscopic tool for screening for CRC and detecting other diseases. Its patient acceptance and feasibility seems to be high, especially in the outpatient setting

How should we do colon capsule endoscopy reading : a practical guide

In this article, we aim to provide general principles as well as personal views for colonic capsule endoscopy. To allow an in-depth understanding of the recommendations, we also present basic technological characteristics and specifications, with emphasis on the current as well as the previous version of colonic capsule endoscopy and relevant software. To date, there is no scientific proof to support the optimal way of reading a colonic capsule endoscopy video, or any standards or guidelines exist. Hence, any advice is a mixture of recommendations by the capsule manufacturer and experts’ opinion. Furthermore, there is a paucity of data regarding the use of term(s) (pre-reader/reader-validator) in colonic capsule endoscopy. We also include a couple of handy tables in order to get info at a glance
