Übergang Schule-Hochschule
Das Buch befasst sich mit dem Übergang "Schule-Hochschule" und wird von Andrea Frank (Bielefeld), Dennis Mocigemba (Freiburg) & Charlotte Zwiauer (Wien) herausgegeben. Die Ausgabe deckt mit elf Beiträgen ein breites Themenspektrum mit unterschiedlichen Perspektiven, inhaltlichen Fragestellungen und methodischen Zugängen zum Thema "Übergang Schule-Hochschule" ab. Die Fülle an nachahmenswerten Maßnahmen zur Gestaltung des Übergangs ist nicht nur imposant, sondern verweist darauf, dass die Integration von Einzelmaßnahmen zu einem sinnvollen Gesamtkonzept für Hochschulen eine große institutionelle Herausforderung darstellt. Mit der Auswahl und Zusammenstellung der Beiträge wird einerseits zu weiteren interessanten wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen der Übergänge von der Schule an die Hochschulen angeregt, andererseits sollen die Beispiele aus der Praxis zur Nachahmung oder Modifikation eigener Maßnahmen inspirieren.
