Dass der Mensch nur da ganz Mensch ist, wo er spielt, hat Schiller in seinen Briefen ‚Über die ästhetische Erziehung des Menschen‘ festgehalten. Daran anknüpfend versteht dieser Band das kindliche Spiel als Motor der geistigen und seelischen Entwicklung des Kindes. Die Beiträge führen die Lesenden in die Thematik ein, greifen die aktuelle Debatte um Gaming auf und vertiefen das Spiel theoretisch in der Verbindung von pädagogischen und therapeutischen Ansätzen.
In diesem Sammelband werden Möglichkeiten der Selbstreflexion in Studiengängen mit pädagogisch orientierter Berufsausrichtung aus verschiedenen Perspektiven dargelegt und nähergehend analysiert. Dabei ermöglicht der Sammelband insbesondere Einblicke in den Umgang mit Selbstreffexion in lehrer*innenbildenden Studiengängen und damit verknüpften Fächern (Psychologie) sowie spezifischen Angeboten (Schreibberatung). Jenseits der Lehrer*innenbildung wird der Sammelband durch Beiträge zu Selbstreffexion aus den Bereichen der Frühkindlichen Bildung, der Erwachsenenbildung sowie der Kultur- und Medienbildung bereichert.
Mircea Eliade descibed shamanism as the primal religion of humanity, the 'archaic technique of ecstasy'. The books of best-selling author Carlos Castaneda made it part of popular culture. Since the 1960s shamanism has continued to attract the attention of scholars, artists, writers and the general public. The most intriguing aspect of this religion is the ability of shamans to enter into contact with spirits on behalf of their communities. The first eighteenth-century explorers of Siberia dubbed shamanism a blatant fraud. Later, academic observers stamped it as 'neurotic delusion'. In the 1960s shamans were recast as 'wounded healers', who sacrifice their lives for the spiritual well being of their communities. Many current writers and scholars treat shamanism as ancient wisdom that has much to teach us about true spirituality. This anthology tells the story of shamanism in Eurasia, North and South America, Africa and Australia. It brings together for the first time fifty-six articles and book excerpts by anthropologists, psychologists, religious scholars and historians, illustrating the variety of views on this subject.
Emotionen begleiten unser Handeln oder gehen ihm voraus. Entsprechend sind Pädagog*innen für den Umgang mit Emotionen zu professionalisieren. Dem stehen gegenwärtig Konjunkturen gegenüber, die eine von Emotionen unbelastete Verhaltensregulation als Ideal der modernen Intervention vorgeben. In der Publikation wird der Zusammenhang von pädagogischer Professionalisierung, Emotion und Disziplinierungstechniken ausgearbeitet.
Within the last decade, several industrialized countries have stressed the importance of advanced manufacturing to their economies. Many of these plans have highlighted the development of additive manufacturing techniques, such as 3D printing which, as of 2018, are still in their infancy. The objective is to develop superior products, produced at lower overall operational costs. For these goals to be realized, a deep understanding of the essential ingredients comprising the materials involved in additive manufacturing is needed. The combination of rigorous material modeling theories, coupled with the dramatic increase of computational power can potentially play a significant role in the anal...
The objective of this monograph is to provide a concise introduction to the dynamics of systems comprised of charged small-scale particles. Flowing, small-scale, particles ("particulates'') are ubiquitous in industrial processes and in the natural sciences. Applications include electrostatic copiers, inkjet printers, powder coating machines, etc., and a variety of manufacturing processes. Due to their small-scale size, external electromagnetic fields can be utilized to manipulate and control charged particulates in industrial processes in order to achieve results that are not possible by purely mechanical means alone. A unique feature of small-scale particulate flows is that they exhibit a s...

British and US scholars of German literature and culture assess the nature of public communications and the molding of public opinion in historical situations ranging from the late Middle Ages to the 20th century. In particular they look at the representation of the public sphere in literary writing a half century after the German original of Jürgen Habermas' The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere was published. Their overall themes are publics before the public sphere, thinking about Enlightenment publics, and cultural politics and literary publics.
