Investigating Complex Phenomena: Bridging between Systems Thinking and Modeling in Science Education
Understanding the complexity of the natural world and making sense of phenomena is one of the main goals of science and science education. When investigating complex phenomena, such as climate change or pandemic outbreaks, students are expected to engage in systems thinking by considering the boundaries of the investigated system, identifying the relevant components and their interactions, and exploring system attributes such as hierarchical organization, dynamicity, feedback loops, and emergence. Scientific models are tools that support students’ reasoning and understanding of complex systems, and students are expected to develop their modeling competence and to engage in the modeling process by constructing, testing, revising, and using models to explain and predict phenomena. Computational modeling tools, for example, provide students with the opportunity to explore big data, run simulations and investigate complex systems. Therefore, both systems thinking and modeling approaches are important for science education when investigating complex phenomena.
Learning Science
An innovative, internationally developed system to help advance science learning and instruction for high school students This book tells the story of a $3.6 million research project funded by the National Science Foundation aimed at increasing scientific literacy and addressing global concerns of declining science engagement. Studying dozens of classrooms across the United States and Finland, this international team combines large-scale studies with intensive interviews from teachers and students to examine how to transform science education. Written for teachers, parents, policymakers, and researchers, this book offers solutions for matching science learning and instruction with newly recommended twenty-first-century standards.
Towards a Competence-Based View on Models and Modeling in Science Education
The book takes a closer look at the theoretical and empirical basis for a competence-based view of models and modeling in science learning and science education research. Current thinking about models and modeling is reflected. The focus lies on the development of modeling competence in science education, and on philosophical aspects, including perspectives on nature of science. The book explores, interprets, and discusses models and modeling from the perspective of different theoretical frameworks and empirical results. The extent to which these frameworks can be integrated into a competence-based approach for science education is discussed. In addition, the book provides practical guidance...
Archival Science in Interdisciplinary Theory and Practice
Archival Science in Interdisciplinary Theory and Practice brings together scholars, practicing archivists, and records managers to discuss key issues in the conceptual and theoretical frameworks of the profession. The contributors examine the state of archival studies as a discipline and practice, placing it within an international, interdisciplinary, forward-looking context. Topics include: the identity of archival science as a discipline, the authenticity and trustworthiness of archives in various forms, archival practice around the world, and new directions for archives in the 21st century. Many of these topics were originally articulated or strongly influenced by Luciana Duranti’s international and interdisciplinary InterPARES projects (1998-2026). The book’s themes (theoretical concepts about trustworthiness of records, interdisciplinary research, archival education, and the archival profession) are particularly relevant in today’s environment when governments and institutions are questioning the trustworthiness of records and attempting to combat disinformation. The book will fill a unique niche by presenting scholarship, practice, and pedagogy influenced by Duranti.
Lehrkräftebildung neu gedacht
Die Lehrkräftebildung in den Naturwissenschaften hat die Aufgabe, die angehenden Lehrkräfte der Biologie, Chemie und Physik auf die Gestaltung des Unterrichts der Zukunft vorzubereiten. Dabei wurden in den letzten Jahren verstärkt neue Lehr-Lern-Formate, Technologien und Methoden an einzelnen Hochschulstandorten entwickelt, um dieser Herausforderung gerecht zu werden. Dieses Buch gibt einen praxisbezogenen Einblick in Innovationen der Lehrkräftebildung in den Naturwissenschaften und macht sie damit auch für den Einsatz an weiteren deutschsprachigen Hochschulen zugänglich. Dazu präsentieren die Autorinnen und Autoren von über 30 Hochschulen in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz neue Ansätze zu Unterstützungsmöglichkeiten der Kompetenzentwicklung, zum Einsatz von Medien und zur Förderung der Planung und Reflexion von Unterricht. Unterstützt wird dies durch umfassende Onlinematerialien, was die Nutzung an anderen Hochschulstandorten begünstigen und damit die Weiterentwicklung der Lehrkräftebildung in den Naturwissenschaften insgesamt fördern soll.
Design and Management of Manufacturing Systems
Although the design and management of manufacturing systems have been explored in the literature for many years now, they still remain topical problems in the current scientific research. The changing market trends, globalization, the constant pressure to reduce production costs, and technical and technological progress make it necessary to search for new manufacturing methods and ways of organizing them, and to modify manufacturing system design paradigms. This book presents current research in different areas connected with the design and management of manufacturing systems and covers such subject areas as: methods supporting the design of manufacturing systems, methods of improving mainte...

August 1968
In August 1968, photojournalist Ladislav Bielik documented the end of the Prague Spring at the hands of the Warsaw Pact's armies. Of the 187 photos he took of that tumultuous time, one of the most famous was of a bare-chested man in front of the occupier's tank. The image has become one of the best known and most significant pictures of the 20th century. This splendid volume shows most of the shots hidden in the cellar of Bielik's house from the secret police. His son discovered the photos by chance and organized their transfer to the West where they have been published. This volume also provides a brief history of the reasons for the Prague Spring, and the events that took place after it was brutally crushed by the authorities. This volume documents an exhilarating time in Eastern European history, and its somber, heartbreaking end.
