by Rebecca DeurleinAs a parent, you want to see your teen succeed in school and in life—and you do your best to help. But how do you know what will make a difference? Maybe it’s time to listen to a teacher. Day in and day out, teachers watch kids interact with peers, make decisions, deal with difficulty, accept or deflect responsibility . . .

Speaking as an educator and a parent herself, Deurlein offers practical strategies for getting teens to: Be self-motivated • Take responsibility for learning • Puzzle through problems • Become their own advocate • Present themselves well • And more Packed with engaging anecdotes and backed by years of experience, Teenagers 101 is a crash course on the skills teenagers everywhere need to thrive in college and beyond.
Teenagers, Literacy and School: Researching in Multilingual Contexts
by Ken CruickshankThis unique and timely book follows the experiences of four Arabic teenagers, their families and their community, focusing on the role of literacy in their daily lives and the differences between home and school. The author looks at the conflict between expectations and practices at school and in the home, arguing that problems are inevitable where class and cultural differences exist. Emerging themes include: how literacy practices in the community are undergoing rapid change due to global developments in technology how the patterns of written and spoken language in English and Arabic in the home are linked with social practices in logical and coherent ways how many of the family practices that differ from school culture and language become marginalised. Built around these insightful case studies yet grounded in theory, this book is of immediate relevance to teachers working in multicultural contexts and students and lecturers in language/literacy or on TESOL courses.
Teenagers’ Everyday Literacy Practices in English: Beyond the Classroom
by Anastasia RothoniThis book examines everyday literacy in English as a foreign language (EFL). Focusing on the out-of-school literacy practices of teenagers in Athens, Greece, it challenges the notion that classrooms are the only contexts which provide exposure to English for learners. The author demonstrates that English can be a powerful resource for teenagers, as a symbolic tool granting them additional means of communication and self-expression. In doing so, she makes an original contribution to the areas of literacy, language education, and applied linguistics.

Teilen oder nicht teilen: Die Logik des Schützens von Forschungsdaten (Higher Education Research and Science Studies)
by Michaela Pook-KolbDie Digitalisierung und die schnell wachsende Menge an Forschungsdaten sowie die Forderung nach mehr Kooperation haben den Austausch von Daten (Data Sharing) zu einem integralen Bestandteil der wissenschaftlichen Praxis gemacht. Data Sharing ist allerdings nicht so unproblematisch, wie es auf den ersten Blick erscheinen mag. Denn im Spannungsfeld zwischen normativem Druck und wissenschaftlichem Wettbewerb wägen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler sorgfältig ab, wann und mit wem sie welche Daten teilen. In diesem Buch werden die Ergebnisse einer qualitativ-soziologischen Studie vorgestellt, die nicht wie bisher das Teilen, sondern das Schützen von Daten (Data Protecting) in den Mittelpunkt des Interesses rückt. Vor dem Hintergrund von Bourdieus Feld-Habitus-Konzept werden offene Leitfadeninterviews mit Hilfe einer Kombination deskriptiver und rekonstruktiver Methoden analysiert. Im Ergebnis liegt nicht nur eine systematische Beschreibung von Praktiken zum Schutz von Forschungsdaten vor, sondern auch die diesen Praktiken zugrundeliegende Handlungslogik. Dieser Logik zufolge dient der Schutz von Forschungsdaten dem Schutz von Forschungsideen (Brainchild Protecting) und sichert schließlich die Realisierung feldspezifischer Gewinne.
Teilhabe an digitaler Bildung: Ergebnisse der Bildungsstudie der Genossenschaft der Werkstätten für behinderte Menschen in Norddeutschland e. G.
by Ludger Kolhoff Julia Hartung-Ziehlke Karen FrankensteinDigitale Bildungsangebote unterstützen die gleichberechtigte Teilhabe von Menschen mit Beeinträchtigung am lebenslangen Lernen. Sie bieten damit einen Zugang für eine unabhängige Lebensführung und Teilhabe in allen Lebensbereichen und werden als zentraler Faktor gelingender Inklusion hervorgehoben. Um Menschen mit Beeinträchtigung die Möglichkeit zu geben, an digitaler Bildung teilzuhaben, wurde 2016 – 2018 der Bildungs- und Qualifizierungsbedarf von Menschen mit Beeinträchtigung in 10 Mitgliedseinrichtungen der Genossenschaft der Werkstätten für behinderte Menschen in Norddeutschland e.G. erfasst. In diesem Band werden vorhandene Analysen zum Bildungsbedarf von Menschen mit Beeinträchtigungen und bestehende Bildungsangebote ausgewertet und über 500 Menschen mit Beeinträchtigung befragt. Auf der Grundlage dieser Studie werden zielgenau bedarfsorientierte digitale Bildungsangebote erstellt.
Teilhabe- und bildungsorientierte Sprachtherapie mit Kindern?: Eine ethnographische Analyse der Therapeut*innen-Kind-Interaktionen
by Sylvie BorelAusgehend von der theoretischen Grundannahme, dass Sprachtherapie als Bestandteil von Bildung anzusehen ist, werden Interaktionen zwischen Sprachtherapeut*innen und Kindern im vorschulischen Bereich über einen ethnographischen Zugang untersucht. Die zentrale Frage der Arbeit lautet, inwieweit Kindern in diesem frühkindlichen Bildungskontext Teilhabe ermöglicht wird. Die Autorin kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Praktiken der Sprachtherapie von einer starken Machtasymmetrie gekennzeichnet sind, die die Sprachprofessionellen in Form von fortlaufenden Evaluationen und dem Einfordern von formal festgelegten monolingualen Kurzantworten aufrechterhalten. Dadurch kommt es zu Beschränkungen von mehrsprachig-kommunikativer Teilhabe und weiterer Beteiligungsmöglichkeiten der als ‚sprachbeeinträchtigt‘ adressierten Kinder.
