Large-Scale Cognitive Assessment
This open access methodological book summarises existing analysing techniques using data from PIAAC, a study initiated by the OECD that assesses key cognitive and occupational skills of the adult population in more than 40 countries. The approximately 65 PIAAC datasets that has been published worldwide to date has been widely received and used by an interdisciplinary research community. Due to the complex structure of the data, analyses with PIAAC datasets are very challenging. To ensure the quality and significance of these data analyses, it is necessary to instruct users in the correct handling of the data. This methodological book provides a standardised approach to successfully implementing these data analyses. It contains examples of and tools for the analysis of the PIAAC data using different statistical approaches and software, and it offers perspectives from various disciplines. The contributing authors have hands-on experience of using PIAAC data, and/or they have conducted data analysis workshops with these data.
The Border Within
When the Berlin Wall fell, Germany united in a wave of euphoria and solidarity. Also caught in the current were Vietnamese border crossers who had left their homeland after its reunification in 1975. Unwilling to live under socialism, one group resettled in West Berlin as refugees. In the name of socialist solidarity, a second group arrived in East Berlin as contract workers. The Border Within paints a vivid portrait of these disparate Vietnamese migrants' encounters with each other in the post-socialist city of Berlin. Journalists, scholars, and Vietnamese border crossers themselves consider these groups that left their homes under vastly different conditions to be one people, linked by an unquestionable ethnic nationhood. Phi Hong Su's rigorous ethnography unpacks this intuition. In absorbing prose, Su reveals how these Cold War compatriots enact palpable social boundaries in everyday life. This book uncovers how 20th-century state formation and international migration—together, border crossings—generate enduring migrant classifications. In doing so, border crossings fracture shared ethnic, national, and religious identities in enduring ways.
The Routledge Handbook of Music and Migration
The Routledge Handbook of Music and Migration: Theories and Methodologies is a progressive, transdisciplinary paradigm-shifting core text for music and migration studies. Conceptualized as a comprehensive methodological and theoretical guide, it foregrounds the mobile potentials of music and presents key arguments about why musical expressions matter in the discussion of migration politics. 24 international specialists in music and migration set methodological and theoretical standards for transdisciplinary collaborations in the field of migration studies, discussing 41 keywords, such as mobility, community, research ethics, human rights, and critical whiteness in the context of music and mi...
Democracy and Exclusion
As people become more mobile around the world, the nature of citizenship, and all its attendant rights, has become the object of intense scrutiny. And, as we know, democracies forcefully and coercively exclude those whom they believe do not belong on their territory or among their constituency. In Democracy and Exclusion, Patti Tamara Lenard looks at how and when democracies exclude both citizens and noncitizens from territory and from membership to determine if and when there are instances when such exclusion is justified. To make her case, Lenard draws on the all-subjected principle, or the idea that all those who are the subject of law--that is, those who are required to abide by the law ...
International Perspectives on School Settings, Education Policy and Digital Strategies
An exchange on education ideas has shaped the transatlantic discourse in education for a long time. Over the past two decades education science has increasingly become networked internationally. Since 2015, the Office for International Cooperation in Education at DIPF | Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education has organized international sessions on education research at the Annual Meetings of the American Educational Research Association, thus providing a floor for transatlantic exchange on current research topics. The volume gives an overview of the transatlantic activities in education research with regard to these sessions representing a collection of topics ranging from school development over the use of large scale assessment and digital data in education to questions related to migration and public education or the economization of education. At the same time the volume offers a reflection on the assets and obstacles of international exchange.
Migrationsforschung in Deutschland
Dieses Buch dient als Leitfaden für Wissenschaftler, Studenten und Praktiker in der Migrationsforschung. Zunächst wird ein Überblick über methodische und theoretische Aspekte des Forschungsgebietes gegeben. Darüber hinaus werden relevante Messinstrumente beschrieben, die einer statistischen Validierung unterzogen wurden und die somit für den Einsatz in Studien mit Migrantenstichproben in Deutschland nachweislich geeignet sind.
Diagnostik bei Migrantinnen und Migranten
Obwohl der Anteil von Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund in den letzten Jahren stark gestiegen ist, fehlte es bislang an einer systematischen Übersicht über diagnostische Verfahren für diese Zielgruppe. Das Handbuch trägt die verfügbaren diagnostischen Verfahren zusammen, die derzeit für Personen mit Migrationshintergrund in Deutschland vorliegen. Dabei finden neben Instrumenten aus dem Bereich der Pädagogischen und Klinischen Psychologie auch Verfahren Berücksichtigung, die für die Platzierung von Migrantinnen und Migranten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt von Bedeutung sind. Das Buch richtet sich an einen breiten Personenkreis aus Wissenschaft und Praxis. Es gibt Psychotherapeut/innen, Sozial...
Musik und Migration
Musik und Migration bedingen einander substanziell. Musik selbst ist beweglich: als Kunstform, als Ware, auf Datenspeichern, als Wissen und Können migrierender Musiker_innen und als Erinnerungsanker von Menschen mit Migrationserfahrungen. Das in den kultur- und kunstwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen schon seit Langem existierende Interesse für das Wechselverhältnis zwischen den Kunst- und Migrationsphänomenen wurde durch aktuelle Fluchtbewegungen neu angefacht und inspiriert. Das vorliegende Handbuch stellt theoretische und methodische Grundlagen des Forschungsfeldes Musik und Migration gebündelt dar und lotet deren Potenzial für zukünftige Projekte aus.
Methoden der Migrationsforschung
Das Buch bietet einen interdisziplinären Überblick zu den Erhebungs- und Auswertungsmethoden sowie zu den relevanten Datensätzen in der Migrations- und Integrationsforschung. Das Methodenbuch dient zum einem als Basisliteratur für Dozenten in unterschiedlichen Bereichen der Migrationsforschung und stellt zum anderen einen Leitfaden für Studierende bereit, der gängige Methoden sowie eine Anleitung zum Umgang mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Datensätzen beinhaltet.
