Organisationen und Netzwerke beraten lernen: Eine Analyse organisationspädagogischer Professionalisierung (Organisation und Pädagogik #34)
by Marc-André HeidelmannDie Arbeit setzt sich theoretisch, methodologisch und empirisch mit den Bedingungen und Möglichkeiten von Beratungslernen im Rahmen eines organisationspädagogischen, universitären Aus- und Weiterbildungsprogramms auseinander. Im Rahmen eines einjährig angelegten Fortbildungsprogramms wurden Studierende verschiedener Masterstudiengänge wissenschaftlich fundiert sowie problem- und erfahrungsorientiert darauf vorbereitet, regionale Vernetzungsprozesse für Kreislaufökonomien methodisch zu unterstützen und zu begleiten. Die qualitativ-längsschnittliche Erhebung sowie die metaphern- und diskursorientierte Analyse der sich vollziehenden Professionalisierungsprozesse der am Programm beteiligten Studierenden steht im Zentrum der Analyse. Mit der Untersuchung von Aneignungsmustern der Noviz*innen im Feld der organisationspädagogischen Organisations- und Netzwerkberatung bearbeitet der Autor das Desiderat längsschnittlicher Analysen von Professionalisierungsprozessen hochschulischer Beratungsausbildungen. Das Buch leistet nicht zuletzt auch grundlagenforschend einen Beitrag zur Entwicklung einer eigenen Begründung beziehungsweise eines möglichen Propriums organisationspädagogischer Organisations- und Netzwerkberatung und somit zur Fortentwicklung dieser jungen Subdisziplin insgesamt.
Organisationsentwicklung in der frühkindlichen Bildung
by Monika Zimmermann Tobias SanderEinrichtungen der frühkindlichen Bildung/Kindertagesbetreuung stehen zunehmend im öffentlichen Fokus. Der Ausbau gesetzlich garantierter Betreuungsplätze, ein Mangel an qualifizierten Mitarbeiter*innen sowie die zunehmende Vernetzung im Sozialraum stellen diese Form sozialer Dienste und ,Hilfen für Alle‘ vor, in Teilen betriebswirtschaftlich imprägnierte Herausforderungen, die – in Summe – kaum zu bewältigen scheinen. Wie gehen die (steuernden) Akteure - Träger, Einrichtungsleitungen und Teams - unter Berücksichtigung der spezifischen Organisationsformen und (professionellen) -kulturen in der Kindertagesbetreuung mit diesen Anforderungen um? Welche Rolle spielen Organisationsentwicklungsansätze wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Provenienz? Inwieweit lassen sich zunehmend heterogene Teams, Betreuungs- und gleichzeitiger Bildungsauftrag sowie immer diverser werdende Stakeholder (Erziehungsberechtigte bzw. Familien, Grundschulen, Quartiersentwicklung) in Einklang bringen? Auf Basis empirischer Befunde sowie theoriebasierter Überlegungen werden im vorliegenden Band auch Handlungsbedarfe identifiziert und Strategien der Organisationsentwicklung auf ihre feldspezfische Belastbarkeit hin überprüft.
Organise Ideas: Thinking by Hand, Extending the Mind
by David Goodwin Oliver CaviglioliThe central purpose of this book is to help teachers organise ideas through the use of graphic organisers. Over 35 such word-diagrams are: organised into a system to help select the right tool for the job; described for rapid understanding of their strengths; and explained for step-by-step construction.Over 50 teachers each have a double-page spread in which they reveal how they use them in their teaching — across the full age range and span of subjects. A further section of the book demonstrates how to use these word-diagrams most effectively by partnering them with other teaching strategies, such as retrieval practice, writing, speaking and listening, teacher explanations, advance organisers, scaffolding, remote learning and more.The pages are illustrated to the same quality and quantity in Oliver’s previous book, Dual Coding with Teachers, its natural companion. A must-have textbook for every teacher that transcends contemporary ideological allegiances and fads.

Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom
by Joan DeanSince the publication of the first edition, Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom has been recognised as an indispensable guide for primary school teachers in their quest for more effective practice in the classroom. It gives help on everyday problems of classroom organisation: how to group children, how to set out a classroom physically, how to make the most efficient use of time and resources. Now in its 4th edition, the book retains these strengths but has been brought right up to date with the many changes that are taking place nationally and globally. The book begins with a survey of these recent changes and goes on to consider their implications for teachers if today's schools are to prepare children for what is, to some extent, an unknown future. In addition to chapters on classroom organisation, the book includes chapters on: child development creativity PSHE and citizenship teaching language and literacy, ICT, mathematics and science the foundation subjects working with parents working effectively with Teaching Assistants evaluating and assessing learning teaching children with special educational needs or exceptional ability. Throughout, the aim is to get teachers and student teachers to analyse their own classrooms and to produce solutions that will work for them. This book will be invaluable not only to newly qualified teachers, but also to experienced practitioners wishing to review their work.
Organising Music
by Nic Beech Charlotte GilmoreOrganisational theorists have become increasingly interested in the creative industries, where practices that are commonplace are of particular interest to organisations in other sectors as they look for new ways to enhance performance.

Two SHAPE America Physical Education Administrators of the Year share what it takes to be an outstanding administrator in Organization and Administration of Physical Education: Theory and Practice. Jayne Greenberg and Judy LoBianco, veteran leaders in the field with decades of successful administration experience, head a sterling list of contributors who have taught at the elementary, middle school, high school, and college levels in urban, suburban, and rural settings.

Organization Development Interventions: Executing Effective Organizational Change
by William J. RothwellTo effectively adapt and thrive in today’s business world, organizations need to implement effective organizational development (OD) interventions to improve performance and effectiveness at the individual, group, and organizational levels. OD interventions involve people, trust, support, shared power, conflict resolution, and stakeholders’ participation, just to name a few. OD interventions usually have broader scope and can affect the whole organization. OD practitioners or change agents must have a solid understanding of different OD interventions to select the most appropriate one to fulfill the client’s needs. There is limited precise information or research about how to design OD interventions or how they can be expected to interact with organizational conditions to achieve specific results. This book offers OD practitioners and change agents a step-by-step approach to implementing OD interventions and includes example cases, practical tools, and guidelines for different OD interventions. It is noteworthy that roughly 65% of organizational change projects fail. One reason for the failure is that the changes are not effectively implemented, and this book focuses on how to successfully implement organizational changes. Designed for use by OD practitioners, management, and human resources professionals, this book provides readers with OD basic principles, practices, and skills by featuring illustrative case studies and useful tools. This book shows how OD professionals can actually get work done and what the step-by-step OD effort should be. This book looks at how to choose and implement a range of interventions at different levels. Unlike other books currently available on the market, this book goes beyond individual, group, and organizational levels of OD interventions, and addresses broader OD intervention efforts at industry and community levels, too. Essentially, this book provides a practical guide for OD interventions. Each chapter provides practical information about general OD interventions, supplies best practice examples and case studies, summarizes the results of best practices, provides at least one case scenario, and offers at least one relevant tool for practitioners.

The Organization of Higher Education: Managing Colleges for a New Era
by Michael N. BastedoColleges and universities are best understood as networks of departments working together to fulfill a mission of education, innovation, and community partnership. To better understand how these large and complex institutions function, scholars can apply organizational and strategic planning concepts made familiar by business management. This book follows that model and explores the new and emerging ways by which organizational theories address major contemporary concerns in higher education. The contributors to this volume are both influenced and inspired by the pioneering work of Marvin Peterson and his four-decade career researching higher education organization. Comprising a serious reexamination of the field, the essays review past and current thinking, address the field’s core theoretical traditions, and pursue exciting new lines of inquiry, including the organizational dynamics of diversity and social movement organizations. Ideal for courses in administration and theory, this book reinvigorates the study of higher education as an organization and encourages scholars to rediscover the value of organizational principles in all areas of higher education research.

The Organization of Information (Third Edition)
by Arlene G. Taylor Daniel N. JoudreyThis third edition of Taylor's modern classic continues to articulate the theory, principles, standards, and tools behind information organization. As with previous editions, it begins with strong justification for the continued importance of organizing principles and practice. Following a broad overview of the concept and its role in human endeavors, Taylor and Joudrey provide a detailed and insightful discussion of such basic retrieval tools as inventories, bibliographies, catalogs, indexes, finding aids, registers, databases, major bibliographic utilities, and other organizing entities; and subsequently trace the development of the organization of recorded information in Western civilization from 2000 B.C.E. to the present. Standards of codification (MARC, SGML, and various DTDs), controlled vocabularies and ontologies, and Web 2.0 technologies are but a sample of its extensive topical coverage
Organization Theory by Chester Barnard: An Introduction (SpringerBriefs in Business)
by Kazuhito IsomuraThis book helps undergraduate and graduate students understand Chester Barnard’s organization theory. Barnard’s book The Functions of the Executive is a classic that, along with Herbert Simon’s Administrative Behavior, is often considered to be essential reading for management students. However, it is well known to be difficult and abstract. Offering a systematic overview, this book provides an excellent introduction to Barnard’s organization theory.Chester Barnard’s concept of formal organization is often cited as a definitive opus on the subject of organization. However, he provided other concepts of organization, such as cooperative systems, complex formal organizations, and informal organizations. In his second book, Organization and Management, he added two more concepts, lateral organizations and status systems, allowing researchers to gain a better understanding of how Barnard developed his organization theory after his first publication.Barnard was a successful practitioner as well as a theorist, and his organization theory is full of practical insights gained from managing various types of organizations, including NGOs and NPOs. This book discusses how Barnard’s organization theory can be applied to business practices in the context of exploring a new style of management, and provides suggestions for business people seeking innovations for their own organizations.
