Der Begründer der Hochschulforschung in Deutschland, Ulrich Teichler, blickt auf mehr als fünf Jahrzehnte Hochschulforschung zurück. Wirtschaftswunder und Hochschulexpansion, studentische Bewegung, Experimente und Krisen der 1970er Jahre, Organisationsruhe, Wiedervereinigung, Internationalisierung, Ranking- und Management-Kult – all dies sind historische Stationen, die sich in Hochschule und Wissenschaft widerspiegeln. Ulrich Teichler berichtet als unmittelbar Beteiligter mit Offenheit und Humor und liefert zugleich kluge Analysen.
In its earliest, dark days, Bomber Command operated deep into occupied Europe with the underdeveloped Avro Manchester. Powered by the Rolls Royce Vulture, it was the only British aircraft to use this engine operationally. The design was revised and amended several times, with three enlargements of the flying surfaces required to provide an adequate flight envelope. Nevertheless, Manchesters entered service without adequate type-testing, leading to four groundings in the first ten months of use. Aircrews were faced with airframe and engine challenges, and the Manchester continued to evolve as the war was being fought.

Issues in Modern Foreign Languages Teaching draws together a range of issues in the teaching of modern foreign languages into one volume that will encourage students and newly qualified teachers to consider and reflect on the issues so that they can make a reasoned and informed judgement about their teaching of MFL. It will be relevant for students and newly qualified teachers at both primary and secondary level and will fill a gap in their knowledge due to time constraints - and an emphasis on standards - on ITT and PGCE courses.
Designed to complement Learning to Teach Modern Foreign Languages in the Secondary School, this book focuses specifically on the skills and processes of teaching MFL at A and A/S level in schools and colleges. The book is divided into three sections: the changing nature of A and A/S level courses; bridging the gap between GCSE and A level; and planning, teaching and assessment. With chapters on learner independence, teaching and learning grammar, planning topics and programmes of work, working with literature, and vocational alternatives, the book will be an essential text for all secondary MFL students and teachers.
