Die Frage, wie die Lehre an Hochschulen zu Exzellenz verbessert werden kann, beantworten die Autorinnen und Autoren des Sammelbands aus vier Perspektiven. Sie betrachten Herausforderungen für die Steuerung der Organisation Hochschule und diskutieren aktuelle Forschungsentwicklungen, insbesondere anhand der Methode "Scholarship of Teaching and Learning". Außerdem werden gute Beispiele aus der Lehrpraxis präsentiert und Ansätze vorgestellt, um exzellente Lehre sichtbar zu machen. Der Band richtet sich an Akteurinnen und Akteure aus der Lehr- und Hochschulentwicklung.
"Most days, union negotiations don't end with assault and battery charges. But I will not forget one that did: May 2, 2006. Instead of winding up the day as usual, writing follow-up notes for whenever we next sat down across the negotiations table from the hospital management and their hired guns, I was writing a statement for the police about being assaulted by an infamous professional union buster; his sidekick, a convicted international gunrunner; and seven private security guards. I had been corralled by these men toward an elevator in Desert Spring Hospital in Las Vegas. It wasn't until I entered it and they piled in behind me that I realized I needed to get out of the elevator as quick...
For Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) and Nanoelectromechanical Systems (NEMS) production, each product requires a unique process technology. This book provides a comprehensive insight into the tools necessary for fabricating MEMS/NEMS and the process technologies applied. Besides, it describes enabling technologies which are necessary for a successful production, i.e., wafer planarization and bonding, as well as contamination control.
This book advances the knowledge of the mechanism development of a lived organism during its lifetime through the normal stationary state and quasi-stationary pathologic state from the viewpoints of biochemistry, biophysics, and thermodynamics. It explores the possibility of estimating experimental results from the three points of view, giving a broad perspective on the interaction between an organism and its environment. The book also describes the biophysical and biochemical mechanisms’ maintenance stability of internal energy according to the First and Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Mounting evidence in the last years has demonstrated that self-regulation of brain activity can successfully be achieved by neurofeedback (NF). These methodologies have constituted themselves as new tools for cognitive neuroscience establishing causal links between voluntary brain activations and cognition and behavior, and as potential novel approaches for clinical applications in severe neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g. schizophrenia, depression, Parkinson´s disease, etc.). Current developments of brain imaging-based neurofeedback include the study of the behavioral modifications and neural reorganization produced by learned regulation of the activity of circumscribed brain regions and neu...
This book will cover all aspects of flavour perception, including aroma, taste and the role of the trigeminal nerve, from the general composition of food to the perception at the peri-receptor and central level. This book will answer to a growing need for multidisciplinary approaches to better understand the mechanisms involved in flavour perception. The book presents the bases of anatomy of sensory perception. It will provide the requisite basic knowledge on the molecules responsible for flavour perception, on their release from the food matrix during the eating process in order to reach the chemosensory receptors, and on their retention and release from and transformation by bodily fluids of the oral and nasal cavities. It will also bring current knowledge on the multimodal interactions. This book will also cover the recent evolution in flavour science: characterisation of molecules, interaction with food matrix and more recently, physic-chemical and physiological and events during oral processing increasingly considered.
With high energy, irreverent humor, and startling insight, Marsan shows what creativity and the inventive spirit can do for relationships, careers, and our ability to fully experience every day. 25 illustrations.
Lehrende und Studierende der Sozialen Arbeit beschreiben und reflektieren, wie Schreiben in ihren hochschulischen Kontexten gelernt und gelehrt wird. Im Zentrum stehen erprobte Lehr-Lern-Konzepte im Studium der Sozialen Arbeit, die auf das Schreiben in Arbeitskontexten vorbereiten und die professionelle Identitätsentwicklung fsowie die Persönlichkeitsentwicklung fördern. Vorgestellt werden berufliche, fachlich-professionelle, wissenschaftliche, wissenschaftlich-reflexive und journalistische Schreibformen. Die Publikation gliedert sich in vier Abschnitte: Im ersten Abschnitt beleuchten die Beiträge die studentische Schreibpraxis zwischen Hochschulsozialisation und Profession. Im zweiten T...
