Interdisciplining Digital Humanities: Boundary Work In An Emerging Field
by Julie Thompson KleinInterdisciplining Digital Humanities sorts through definitions and patterns of practice over roughly sixty-five years of work, providing an overview for specialists and a general audience alike. It is the only book that tests the widespread claim that Digital Humanities is interdisciplinary. By examining the boundary work of constructing, expanding, and sustaining a new field, it depicts both the ways this new field is being situated within individual domains and dynamic cross-fertilizations that are fostering new relationships across academic boundaries. It also accounts for digital reinvigorations of "public humanities" in cultural heritage institutions of museums, archives, libraries, and community forums.
Interdisziplinäre Analysen zur LEO - Studie 2018 – Leben mit geringer Literalität: Vertiefende Erkenntnisse zur Rolle des Lesens und Schreibens im Erwachsenenalter (Edition ZfE #14)
by Anke Grotlüschen Heike Solga Klaus BuddebergDie 2020 veröffentlichten ersten Befunde der aktuellen LEO-Studie beleuchten nur einige Aspekte und waren häufig deskriptiver Natur. Large-Scale-Assessments wie die LEO-Studie enthalten jedoch entschieden mehr Analysemöglichkeiten – sowohl hinsichtlich der inhaltlichen Breite als auch der statistischen Modellierung. Daher versammelt dieser Band Analysen zu unterschiedlichen Aspekten der Zusammenhänge zwischen Literalität(en) und Teilhabechancen in interdisziplinärer Perspektive. Die Beiträge des Bandes folgen dem gegenwärtigen Grundbildungsdiskurs in Deutschland, der sich aus einer reinen Betrachtung der Lese- und Schreibkompetenz befreit und bildungsrelevante Bezüge zu diversen Lebensbereichen mit einbezieht. Dazu zählen Arbeit und Familie, Digitalisierung, Finanzen, Gesundheit, Politik und Migration sowie Mehrsprachigkeit.
Interdisziplinäre Kooperation und Schulabsentismus (Absentismus und Dropout)
by Heinrich Ricking Karsten SpeckBislang fehlt es an fundierten Forschungsbefunden zum Thema Multiprofessionelle Kooperation und Schulabsentismus im deutschsprachigen Raum. Im Zuge des Ausbaus von Ganztagsschulangeboten, Kooperationsangeboten zwischen Jugendhilfe und Schulen, inklusiven Bildungsangeboten von schulischen Beratungs- und Unterstützungssystemen gewinnt darüber hinaus die Kooperation unterschiedlicher Berufskulturen und Institutionen beim Thema Schulabsentismus an Bedeutung. Hier setzt das Konzept für die Buchpublikation „Multiprofessionelle Kooperation und Schulabsentismus“ an. Es zeigt sowohl die Probleme wie auch die Gelingensbedingungen auf und macht deutlich, dass gute Zusammenarbeit über Fächergrenzen hinweg möglich ist.

Interface Development for Learning Environments: Establishing Connections Between Users and Learning (SpringerBriefs in Educational Communications and Technology)
by Joseph Frantiska Jr.This brief will examine and explore some tools and techniques that can be used to develop interfaces for learning environments. Interface design has been a topic in software engineering for many years. The advent of graphical user interfaces has created many remedies and challenges for the software engineer. In recent years with an increased emphasis in educational technology, instructional designers are also included in this arena. The interface can be a driver in terms of a learning environment’s ability to engage a student. It can also provide a point of information exchange and therefore learning between the student and the environment’s software. Thus, the issue of an interface is vital to the success of a learning environment. This brief will produce a variety of interfaces for various environments to allow the designer to contrast and compare them based upon the required purpose. The designer will have a toolkit filled with tools and techniques which will allow for interfaces that will engage the student and facilitate their learning. The primary audiences are K-12 and post-secondary educators who desire to create digital media based educational materials.
Interface between English Language Education Policies and Practice: Examples from Various Contexts
by Eric Enongene Ekembe Lauren Harvey Eric DwyerThis book is about the policy-practice praxis in English language education, and draws on research from a diverse range of under-explored international settings to showcase the importance of contextual realities on how policy and practice interact. The case studies covered in the volume come from five continents (Africa, Europe, Asia, and South and North America) and cover 11 countries in total. The authors cover a wide range of themes and identify a number of issues at the interface between policy and practice. In some cases they also highlight local initiatives for navigating these issues, providing contextually-grounded guidance and experience which will be of use to teachers and teacher trainers in other settings. This book will be of interest to policy makers, EMI researchers, ELT practitioners, teacher trainers and trainees, and the broader Applied Linguistics research community.
Interfaces between Mathematical Practices and Mathematical Education (International Studies in the History of Mathematics and its Teaching)
by Gert SchubringThis contributed volume investigates the active role of the different contexts of mathematics teaching on the evolution of the practices of mathematical concepts, with particular focus on their foundations. The book aims to deconstruct the strong and generally wide-held conviction that research in mathematics constitutes the only driving force for any progress in the development of mathematics as a field. In compelling and convincing contrast, these chapters aim to show the productive function of teaching, showcasing investigations from countries and regions throughout various eras, from Old Babylonia through the 20th Century. In so doing, they provide a critical reflection on the foundations of mathematics, as well as instigate new research questions, and explore the interfaces between teaching and research.

Interfaith Leadership: A Primer
by Eboo PatelA guide for students, groups, and organizations seeking to foster interfaith dialogue and promote understanding across religious linesIn this book, renowned interfaith leader Eboo Patel offers a clear, detailed, and practical guide to interfaith leadership, illustrated with compelling examples. Patel explains what interfaith leadership is and explores the core competencies and skills of interfaith leadership, before turning to the issues interfaith leaders face and how they can prepare to solve them. Interfaith leaders seek points of connection and commonality--in their neighborhoods, schools, college campuses, companies, organizations, hospitals, and other spaces where people of different faiths interact with one another. While it can be challenging to navigate the differences and disagreements that can arise from these interactions, skilled interfaith leaders are vital if we are to have a strong, religiously diverse democracy. This primer presents readers with the philosophical underpinnings of interfaith theory and outlines the skills necessary to practice interfaith leadership today.
Intergenerational Approaches in Aging: Implications for Education, Policy, and Practice
by Robert Disch Kevin BrabazonIn Intergenerational Approaches in Aging: Implications for Education, Policy, and Practice, leading practitioners and academics from a variety of disciplines come together to discuss theoretical issues, current practice, and future directions for this rapidly developing field. The authors address key topics such as defining the intergenerational field, the effects of the segregation of groups by age on social function and organization in our communities, and designing, implementing, and assessing programs that create cross-generational connections. Exploring ways to provide services to different age groups while tapping the strengths and skills of each age group, Intergenerational Approaches in Aging examines the application of intergenerational approaches to important social issues as well as specific challenges faced by practitioners. It makes suggestions for integrating intergenerational studies into the higher education system and for challenging segregated services and funding programs. As the book shows, promoting cooperation between diverse segments of society also depends on:making intergenerational programming a permanent feature of public schoolsunderstanding and meeting the social, mental health, and medical needs of grandparents who are raising their grandchildrenusing observational research to study and evaluate intergenerational program effectiveness and the relationships among the people involvedviewing differences among people as assetsdeveloping intergenerational program modelsproviding children with a 'life-cycle’view of the worldIntergenerational Approaches in Aging offers the personnel of state and local agencies on aging, nursing homes, senior centers, and geriatric homes practical advice, innovative ideas, and supportive materials for developing and implementing intergenerational activities and programs that can benefit all parties involved. Academics and school administrators will also benefit from this book as they learn concrete methods for integrating aging education into already existing curricula and building new conceptual frames of reference for a wide variety of social issues and historical topics.
Intergenerational Bonds: The Contributions of Older Adults to Young Children's Lives (Educating the Young Child #18)
by Mary Renck Jalongo Patricia A. CrawfordThis book studies the many different ways in which the lives of the first, third, and fourth generations intersect and the reciprocal benefits that can accrue from establishing positive intergenerational bonds. The unifying feature across the chapters is that the authors view these relationships as a powerful influence on Quality of Life (QoL). The book takes the stance that older adults figure prominently in the QoL of young children, with the latter group defined here as ranging in age from infancy up to and including eight years of age. It examines how bonds with older adults can affect young children’s functioning across developmental domains—physical, emotional, social, and cognitive. It addresses questions of importance to those who have a commitment to the very young such as: “What benefits can young children derive from positive bonds with older adults?”, “How do young children understand the aging process and develop respect for the elderly?”, “How can published research be used to guide both informal and formal interactions between the older generation and the newest one?” and, finally, “How can various stakeholders such as professionals, families, organizations, and communities collaborate to enrich and enlarge the kind and amount of support that older adults provide to the very young child?”
Intergenerational Income Mobility in China: Implications for Education Policy and Practice (Education and Society in China)
by Yuna HouIntergenerational income mobility is of great societal importance due to its relevance to equal socio-economic opportunity and future economic efficiency. In her book Dr Hou explores the potential role of education policy in reducing intergenerational transmission of poverty and promoting intergenerational income mobility in China. Her research investigates the extent to which intergenerational income persists in China, the mechanisms behind intergenerational inequality, and premises for policy intervention. The interaction between families, labour markets, and public policies that structure a child’s opportunities and determine the extent to which income is related to family background are discussed in detail. The book comprises of three separate empirical studies examining the relationship between parents’ income and the long-term welfare of their children for two birth cohorts; the role education plays in the intergenerational income relationship; and possible policy intervention channels to facilitate intergenerational income mobility. The lessons learnt from the empirical studies in this book offer the basis for a discussion of current educational policies and provide guidance for developing more appropriate public policies to promote intergenerational income mobility in China in the future. This book contributes to the international discussion by providing evidence in Chinese context, and also provides guidance for policymakers attempting to develop more appropriate public policies to promote intergenerational income mobility in China.

Intergenerational Mobility
by Rajarshi MajumderDiscrimination and exclusion in the process of capability formation and the labor market transcend the boundaries of the current generation and spill over to successive generations as well. Though a plethora of work has been done at the international level, the area has not been the focus of Indian economic research despite social exclusion and disparity having been quite substantial in India, especially the division along caste lines. The book addresses this research gap and explores the issue of intergenerational mobility across different social classes in the Indian context, analyzing the spheres of both education and occupation. We contend that parental education and occupation have a significantly greater impact on educational attainment and occupational choice for socially excluded groups compared to the advanced groups. In the labor market, intergenerational mobility is low and most of it is lateral and not vertical, increasing the possibility of discrimination in the labor market. This book highlights the fact that the long history of social exclusion has had a lasting effect and it is very difficult to come out of this inertia.

Intergroup Contact, Friendships and Prejudice Reduction in Multiethnic Schools and Communities: Sociological, Psychological and Pedagogical Research and Theory (Routledge Research in Race and Ethnicity)
by Alessandro Bergamaschi Cinzia PicaThis edited collection addresses the important study of the conditions that support positive intergroup contact that leads to intergroup friendships and prejudice reduction through a multidisciplinary lens. Employing Intergroup Contact Theory and Intergroup Friendships Theory as conceptual foundations, this book brings together researchers in psychology, sociology and education.European societies are increasingly diverse spaces in which children, adolescents and adults of different racial and ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs and cultural-linguistic practices interact daily. These spaces provide fertile ground for a continuum of relational experiences, from positive intergroup relationships and friendships to tensions and experiences of discrimination, marginalization and isolation. Bergamaschi, Pica and their contributors examine the psychological and sociological conditions, as well as the pedagogical interventions, that can shape interactions among young people.The book will be of great interest to academics and students across disciplines, educators, policy makers and activists interested in how to support intercultural societies and schools toward the goal of reduced prejudice and discrimination toward a more intercultural and just society. The book will be a valuable read for scholars of the sociology of multiethnic society and for scholars interested in the role of education and school environments.
Intergroup Dialogue: Engaging Difference, Social Identities and Social Justice
by Ximena Zúñiga Kristie A. Ford Gretchen E. LopezIntergroup dialogue is a form of democratic engagement that fosters communication, critical reflection, and collaborative action across social and cultural divides.

Intergroup Emotions and Competitive Victimhoods: Turkey’s Ethnic, Religious and Political Emigrant Groups in Australia (Palgrave Studies in Political Psychology)
by Ihsan YilmazThis book examines the narratives and collective emotions of diaspora groups who originate from Turkey and now live in Australia, focusing on their experiences of collective victimhood, competitive victimhood, and intergroup emotions in relation to other diaspora groups from Turkey. Based on 122 semi-structured extensive interviews with Armenians, Kurds, Alevis, Gülenists, Kemalists and Erdoğanists, the book argues that, while in power, dominant groups driven by competitive victimhood often exhibit indifference toward the victimhood of other groups. This dynamic reflects how ressentiment can perpetuate cycles of oppression and antagonism. However, this pattern can shift when powerful groups find themselves in opposition. In such scenarios, they may become more attuned to the grievances of other groups.

Interior Design Concept: Critical Practices, Processes and Explorations in Interior Architecture and Design
by Natalie BadenduckInterior Design Concept combines a comprehensive introduction to design concept, with a reflective examination upon the various ways it can be understood, harnessed, and implemented. Within interior architecture and design, the power of conceptual thinking to fuel creativity, innovation, and collaboration is evident in the use of design concept. Broadly accepted as an essential component in the design process, design concept is a notoriously elusive topic which has, until now, received little critical attention. This book offers a reevaluation of current academic ideas about design methodologies and the nature of inspiration, alongside brand-new data from an international research study to help clarify what creativity really means in the modern world. Topics addressed throughout this text will examine the functions and definitions of design concept, analyze how it may be identified and integrated within the design process, investigate from where ideas for design concepts can emerge and, lastly, consider how ideas about them might be communicated in various ways. This book offers students, educators, and practitioners a concise explanation of what design concept is, why it plays such an integral role in the design process, and how it is utilized by interior architects and designers.
