Perspektiven auf die Berufsbildung zu gewähren, bedeutet, anderen Einblicke in die komplexe und vielfältige Welt der Berufsbildung zu gewähren und damit die Entwicklung neuer Sichtweise auf eine meist wenig vertraute Materie zu ermöglichen. Der vorliegende Sonderband der Reihe Forschungsperspektiven der Pädagogischen Hochschule Wien widmet sich unter dem Motto schwerpunktmäßig diesem Ziel. Unter dem Motto "Gleichwertig, aber nicht gleichartig" eröffnen 19 Autorinnen und Autoren in zehn Beiträgen unterschiedliche Perspektiven auf die berufliche Aus-, Fort- und Weiterbildung.
Im 15. Band der Reihe Forschungsperspektiven mit dem Titel Mehr Begeisterung für MINT-Fächer werden zusätzlich zu aktuellen didaktischen und inhaltlichen Aspekten von Mathematik, Informatik, Naturwissenschaften und Technik unter anderem auch Optionen sowie Chancen von Motivation, Innovation, Neugier und Talentförderung ausgelotet. Einer Vielzahl hochkarätiger Grundlagenbeiträge folgen Forschungsbeiträge zu MINT in Schul- und Hochschulkontexten. Fünf forschungsmethodische Beiträge runden diesen Sammelband ab.
25 Autorinnen und Autoren widmen sich in elf Fachbeiträgen dem Phänomen des Einstiegs als bedeutsamen Aspekt des Bildungswesens: in ein Lehramtsstudium, in den Lehrberuf, in innovative Zugänge von Aus-, Fort- und Weiterbildung sowie in bildungspolitisch und pädagogisch aktuelle Themenkomplexe. Mit dem Einstieg verbunden sind meist ein Sich-Einlassen auf Neues, ein Eröffnen einer wenig vertrauten Materie und ein Zugang zu neuen Forschungsperspektiven, woraus sich wiederum spannende Fragestellungen eröffnen.

Designing for technology enhanced learning (TEL) is often a demanding process. It involves creating challenging learning tasks, making sure that students have access to the right tools and resources, and ensuring there are appropriate opportunities for them to learn with and from each other. Good design is creative, and it also depends on deep experience, sound evidence about learning and an understanding of the capabilities of technology. This book introduces the use of design patterns and pattern languages as ways of capturing and sharing TEL design knowledge. The editors have assembled a team of authors who have pioneered research and development in this rapidly expanding field. The book surveys the state-of-the art and identifies productive lines for future research. It will be invaluable to researchers, teachers, students and professional TEL designers.

E-learning is still in its infancy. This can be seen both in the limited pedagogical quality and lack of portability of e-learning content, and in the lack of user-friendly tools to exploit the opportunities offered by current technologies. To be successful, e-learning must offer effective and attractive courses and programmes to learners, while at the same time providing a pleasant and effective work environment for staff members who have the task to develop course materials, plan the learning processes, provide tutoring, and assess performance. To overcome these deficiencies, the IMS Global Learning Consortium Inc. released the Learning Design Specification in 2003. With Learning Design it...
