Visual proficiency - A perspective on art education
Every day, over a million images are uploaded to flickr. This is a striking example of the so-called »flood« of images that emerged with the beginning of the digital age. A generation of adolescents has already been socialised with this flood of images and deals with it on a daily basis, both in their networks and elsewhere. Art education thus faces significant challenges: art is the only school subject that deals with the problems inherent in images as images, making them the focus of pedagogic activity. This volume presents both the foundations for engaging with the phenomenon of the »image« in a competent and historically informed manner as well as the perspectives for art education t...

Integrated Water Resources Management: Concept, Research and Implementation
This book reviews the concept, contemporary research efforts and the implementation of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM).

Leidenschaft und Fußball
Der Fußball ist in Deutschland und in vielen weiteren Ländern weltweit eine omnipräsente Lebensrealität und begeistert zahlreiche Menschen jeden Alters und Geschlechts leidenschaftlich. Insofern ist er ein höchstbedeutsamer theologischer Analysegegenstand. Denn das, was Menschen bewegt, muss Gegenstand der Pastoral sein (vgl. Gaudium et spes 1). Deshalb werden Fußball und Pastoral in diesem Band in ein produktives Spannungsverhältnis gebracht - nicht im Sinne einer unzulässigen Vermischung der beiden Felder (Fußball ist keine Religion!), sondern im Sinne der Qualifikation des Fußballs als einem pastoral-theologischen Lernfeld, das jede Menge kreatives Potential für die Pastoral bereit hält. Der Band bleibt nicht bei den weit verbreiteten Vergleichen von Liturgie und Fußball hängen (so richtig diese phänomenologisch sein mögen), sondern stellt diesen tatsächlich in einer ganz eigenen Perspektive als pastoralen Lernort dar.

Spannende Fragen – gerade im Jahr der Fußball-WM.Ob »Fußball-Gott« Toni Turek 1954 oder Diego Maradona, der 1986 die »Hand Gottes« für sein WM-Tor bemühte: Die Bezüge zwischen Fußball und Religion sind zahlreich. In der Unterrichtseinheit wird diesen Fragen nachgegangen, wobei u.a. die Funktion von Mythen und Ritualen im Erleben der Fans, die Religiosität der Akteure selbst sowie die Berichterstattung der Medien in d...
