Ein interkultureller Modellversuch in Nordrhein-Westfalen: das Gymnasium Eringerfeld in türkischer Trägerschaft

Der vorliegende Artikel geht auf einen Aufsatz zurück, der im Frühjahr 2007 fertiggestellt wurde. Das am Gymnasium Eringerfeld konzipierte Sprachförderprogramm, auf das u.a. im Folgenden hingewiesen wird, befand sich im Schuljahr 2007/08 in der Phase der Weiterentwicklung und dürfte mittlerweile in einer überarbeiteten Version vorliegen. Auf jeden Fall behalten die im nachstehenden Text zur Sprache gebrachten pädagogisch-didaktischen sowie bildungstheoretischen Aspekte in ihrer Bezugnahme sowohl auf gesellschaftspolitische Zusammenhänge wie auch auf das Gymnasium selbst ihre Gültigkeit: sie haben Aussagekraft von grundsätzlichem Charakter.The here presented text is based on an essay which was completed in spring, 2007. In the school year 2007/08 the language support programme, which was developed at the Gymnasium (grammar school) Eringerfeld and to which I will refer a. o. in the following, went through a phase of further development and may be supposed to have meanwhile been published in a revised version. In any case, those paedagogical-didactic and education-theoretical aspects as being mentioned in the following text are still valid as far as their reference both to social-political contexts and the "Gymnasium” itself is concerned: their meaningfulness is of a fundamental nature

Physician reported perception in the treatment of high blood pressure does not correspond to practice

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>High blood pressure is a significant health problem world-wide. Physician factors play a significant role in the suboptimal control of hypertension in the United States. We sought to better understand primary care physician's opinions regarding use of hypertension guidelines, patient and physician related barriers to treatment and physician treatment decision making in the management of hypertension as part of a first step in developing research tools and interventions designed to address these issues.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>An IRB approved survey pertaining to physician opinion regarding the treatment of hypertension. Items consisted of questions regarding: 1) knowledge of hypertension treatment guidelines; 2) barriers to hypertension control (physician vs. patient); and 3) self-estimation of physician treatment of hypertension. Descriptive Statistics were used to describe results.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>All physicians were board certified in family or general internal medicine (n = 28). Practices were located in urban (n = 12), suburban (n = 14) and inner city locations (n = 1). All physicians felt they did a good job of treating hypertension. Most physicians felt the biggest barrier to hypertension control was patient non-compliance. Half of physicians would fail to intensify treatment for hypertension when blood pressure was above recommended levels for all disease states studied (essential hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, and renal disease).</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>Physician ability to assess personal performance in the treatment of hypertension and physician opinion that patient noncompliance is the greatest barrier to optimal hypertension control is contradictory to reported practice behavior. Optimal blood pressure control requires increased physician understanding on the evaluation and management of blood pressure. These data provide crucial formative data to enhance the content validity of physician education efforts currently underway to improve the treatment of blood pressure in the primary care setting.</p

Hermann Lons; Ein Versuch, das Leben und die Werke des Dichters Kritisch zu Beurteilen

Der verfasser dieser arbeit hat den versuch unternommen, die enge verbundenheit des dichters Lons mit dem miedersachsischen volke und der niedersachsischen landschaft aus seinem leben, seinem wirken und seinen werken heraus darzustellen. Als knabe habe ich jedes neu erscheinende Lonsbuch mit grossem interesse gelesen. Ich mochte Hermann Lons als nationalen dichter zu erfassen versuchen. Was damals als sendung geschaut war, ist inzwischen weithin erfullung geworden. Der Leserkreis hat sich in ungeahntem masse ausgeweitet; die lonsgemeinde umschliesst heute einen grossen teil des deutschen volkes
