Differenzierung im Wirtschaftsunterricht: Eine qualitative Delphi-Studie zu Chancen und Hürden
by Christoph HertrichChristoph Hertrich untersucht in dieser Studie die Chancen und Hürden einer Differenzierung im Wirtschaftsunterricht. Auf Basis einer Delphi-Experten-Befragung identifiziert er domänenspezifische und überfachliche Aspekte, die bei der Konzeption von differenzierenden Lehr-Lernarrangements berücksichtigt werden sollten. Damit wird ein zentraler Beitrag zur Unterrichtsforschung im Bereich der ökonomischen Bildung geleistet, der zugleich wertvolle Impulse für die Praxis liefert.
Differenzkritische Perspektiven auf Fachhochschulen und Universitäten: Analysen und Interventionen (Beiträge zur Regional- und Migrationsforschung)
by Susanne Bachmann Maritza Le Breton Susanne BurrenZiel dieses Sammelbands ist es, historisch-theoretische, empirische und handlungsbezogene Zugänge zu Differenzkonstruktionen und (Un-)Gleichheiten sowie Diversitätsorientierung an (Fach-)Hochschulen und deren bildungspraktische Relevanz und Spannungsfelder aus kritisch-dekonstruktiver, postkolonialer und intersektionaler Perspektive zu beleuchten - dies mit Bezug auf aktuelle Diskurse über Diversität im Hochschulkontext, die eher an Ansätze der betriebswirtschaftlichen Organisationsentwicklung ausgerichtet sind. So kann Diversity-Management unter Beachtung hochschulinterner Diversitätsleitsätze soziale Positionierungen festschreiben, wodurch eine Re-Essentialisierung stattfinden kann. Eine Betrachtungsweise im Sinne einer kritischen, emanzipatorischen und antidiskriminierenden Perspektive, welche soziokulturelle Bedingungen von Studierenden und Mitarbeitenden an (Fach-)Hochschulen berücksichtigt, ist hingegen selten anzutreffen. Im Fokus alternativer Ansätze steht eine differenzreflexive Hochschule, welche auf die Dekonstruktion von natürlich erscheinenden Differenzlinien zielt, mit der Absicht, nicht nur essentialistische Diskurse zu hinterfragen, sondern auch eine Veränderung der darin eingebundenen geschlechts-, disziplin- und generationenspezifischen Habitusformen zu bewirken.

Difficult Situations in Business Coaching: Practical Examples, Perspectives and Possibilities for Action
by Heidi Möller Jannik ZimmermannCoaches encounter a range of situations in their professional practice that they experience as difficult. The challenges have different sources. They can come from the coaches themselves, the coachees or the commissioning organization. But how do these situations present themselves in detail? How can coaches understand them and respond appropriately? Using real case studies collected online, this book takes a closer look at difficult situations. In doing so, renowned coaches present for discussion their theoretical and methodological perspectives and their recommendations for action. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Schwierige Situationen im Business-Coaching by Heidi Möller and Jannik Zimmermann, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Difficult Subjects: Insights and Strategies for Teaching About Race, Sexuality, and Gender
by Badia Ahad-Legardy OiYan A. PoonDifficult Subjects: Insights and Strategies for Teaching about Race, Sexuality and Gender is a collection of essays from scholars across disciplines, institutions, and ranks that offers diverse and multi-faceted approaches to teaching about subjects that prove both challenging and often uncomfortable for both the professor and the student. It encourages college educators to engage in forms of practice that do not pretend that teachers and students are unaffected by world events and incidents that highlight social inequalities. Readers will find the collected essays useful for identifying new approaches to taking on the “difficult subjects” of race, gender, and sexuality. The book will also serve as inspiration for academics who believe that their area of study does not allow for such pedagogical inquiries to also teach in ways that address difficult subjects. Contributors to this volume span a range of disciplines from criminal justice to gender studies to organic chemistry, and demonstrate the productive possibilities that can emerge in college classrooms when faculty consider “identity” as constitutive of rather than divorced from their academic disciplines.Discussions of race, gender, and sexuality are always hot-button issues in the college classroom, whether they emerge in response to a national event or tragedy or constitute the content of the class over a semester-long term. Even seasoned professors who specialize in these areas find it difficult to talk about identity politics in a room full of students. And many professors for whom issues of racial, and sexual identity is not a primary concern find it even more challenging to raise these issues with students. Offering reflections and practical guidance, the book accounts for a range of challenges facing college educators, and encourages faculty to teach with courage and conviction, especially when it feels as though the world around us is crashing down upon our students and ourselves.
Diffracting New Materialisms: Emerging Methods in Artistic Research and Higher Education
by Annouchka Bayley Jj ChanThis edited book considers the vital position of artistic research in the landscapes and ecosystems of new materialism(s) and post-humanism(s), in and for higher education. The book aims to satisfy an urgent desire for change in the ways we link artistic and critical research practices, asking what new ways of thinking and creating for twenty-first century artistic and educational contexts we need in order to address the kinds of global complexities we face. Organised around five key themes including fictioning, reading, embodying, inhabiting and folding, the book acts as an entry point for academics, artists and scholar-practitioners to participate in the shaping of new forms of artistic research and practice that are relevant, participatory, and that urgently address the kinds of complex issues emergent in our twenty-first century context. In doing so, the book makes a key contribution to the development of emerging inter- and transdisciplinary artistic research practices across a range of fields, responding to the question - what kinds of research and practice worlds do we wish to create in times of urgency, crisis and complexity?

Digging Through the Bible: Understanding Biblical People, Places, and Controversies through Archaeology
by Richard A FreundA &“masterful and eminently readable&” journey through the fascinating insights and revelations of Biblical archeology (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Many of our religious beliefs are based on faith alone, but archaeology gives us the opportunity to find evidence about what really happened in the distant past—evidence that can have a dramatic impact on what and how we believe. In Digging Through the Bible, archaeologist and rabbi Richard Freund takes readers through digs he has led in the Holy Land, searching for evidence about key biblical characters and events. Digging Through the Bible presents overviews of the evidence surrounding figures such as Moses, Kings David and Solomon, and Mary the mother of Jesus, as well as new information that can help us more fully understand the life and times in which these people would have lived. Freund also presents new evidence about finding the grave of the Teacher of Righteousness mentioned in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and gives a compelling argument about how the Exodus of the Israelites may have taken place in three separate waves over time, rather than in a single event as presented in the Bible.
Digging Up Armageddon: The Search for the Lost City of Solomon
by Eric H. ClineA vivid portrait of the early years of biblical archaeology from the acclaimed author of 1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization CollapsedIn 1925, James Henry Breasted, famed Egyptologist and director of the Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago, sent a team of archaeologists to the Holy Land to excavate the ancient site of Megiddo—Armageddon in the New Testament—which the Bible says was fortified by King Solomon. Their excavations made headlines around the world and shed light on one of the most legendary cities of biblical times, yet little has been written about what happened behind the scenes. Digging Up Armageddon brings to life one of the most important archaeological expeditions ever undertaken, describing the site and what was found there, including discoveries of gold and ivory, and providing an up-close look at the internal workings of a dig in the early years of biblical archaeology.The Chicago team left behind a trove of writings and correspondence spanning more than three decades, from letters and cablegrams to cards, notes, and diaries. Eric Cline draws on these materials to paint a compelling portrait of a bygone age of archaeology. He masterfully sets the expedition against the backdrop of the Great Depression in America and the growing troubles and tensions in British Mandate Palestine. He gives readers an insider's perspective on the debates over what was uncovered at Megiddo, the infighting that roiled the expedition, and the stunning discoveries that transformed our understanding of the ancient world.Digging Up Armageddon is the enthralling story of an archaeological site in the interwar years and its remarkable place at the crossroads of history.
