Psychological and Pedagogical Aspects of Motivation
This collection of articles is written by psychologists and pedagogues from two countries: the contributors from Norway work in the field of sport science at the Finnmark University College in Alta, while those from Poland are psychologists, pedagogues, and sociologists conducting their research in varied fields at the Pomeranian University in Slupsk. The common feature is that all of these scholars are interested in the same field of research: motivation. Therefore, this book examines the issue of motivation from various angles and different approaches. At the same time, the articles also provide insight into the similarities and differences that are specific to given countries. (Series: Psychologie - Vol. 52)

International Insights: Equality in Education
Educational institutions should offer a safe and secure environment for young people. Part of that should be educational equity, which is a measure of achievement, fairness, and opportunity in education. This publication analyses and discusses educational equality from different angles. All contributions reflect on the current situation of 11 European countries. All of them are part of the Bologna process and are dealing with the challenges of the development of a European Higher Education Area. This ongoing process is reflected in the present publication, with a specific focus on equality in education. The authors cover aspects like inclusion and inequality, internationalizing education, and accessing education, but they also deal with learning foreign languages, education for the future, assessment, feedback and student success, lifelong learning, teacher training as well as different aspects of the LGB(T+) community and gender and education.
Teacher Education, Sustainability and Development
Internationalisation of teacher training is a major challenge in the 21st century. For universities, university colleges and schools, internationalisation is now more important than ever. This publication considers a variety of perspectives related to internationalisation and explores aspects such as diversity, globalisation, interculturality, multilingualism, political education, and in particular, sustainable development. This publication presents 22 diverse contributions. Nevertheless, the contributions share a common base: They all refer to teacher education, sustainability and challenges of educational interest for the advancement of internationalisation in education.
Views of Nature and Dualism
In the face of the anthropogenic threats to the singular planetary habitat we share with other human beings and non-human species, humanities scholars feel a renewed sense of urgency 1) to acknowledge the ways our species has funded particular histories of environmental exploitation, alienation, and collapse, 2) to unpack inherited assumptions that impact our views of nature and interspecies relations, and 3) to suggest ways of thinking and acting that seek to repair the damage and promote mutual flourishing for all of earth inhabitants. This volume brings together scholars in philosophy, theology, and religion who take up this urgent ethical task from a broad range of perspectives and locations.
