Multimediale, interaktive und patientennahe Lehrszenarien in der medizinischen Ausbildung

MeduMobile ist ein im Rahmen der Ausschreibung „Notebook-University“ vom bmb+f gefördertes Projekt. Ziel des Projektes ist es, die Ausbildung am Krankenbett im Medizinstudium zu verbessern, indem bestimmte Lehrveranstaltungen mit Hilfe von WLAN und Notebook ubiquitär auf dem Campus verfügbar gemacht werden. Hierzu werden neue, so genannte OnCall-Lehrszenarien entwickelt und erprobt, bei denen die auf Abruf bereit stehenden Medizinstudierenden alarmiert und zur Teilnahme gebeten werden, wenn akute und/oder seltene Fälle in die Klinik eingeliefert werden. Die Studierenden nehmen aktiv an den vielfach interdisziplinären Lehrveranstaltungen teil. Der Unterricht findet vor, während und nach der Live-Session statt. Der Hochschullehrer und die Studierenden können den Fall gemeinsam besprechen und die Diagnose bzw. Therapie u.a. an Hand bildgebender Verfahren (CT, Mikroskop, Röntgen, Ultraschall, ...) erarbeiten. Parallel dazu können die Studierenden Lehrmaterialen aus multimedialen Datenbanken, Medline und Internet nutzen sowie eigene Videokonferenzen für die Gruppenarbeit einsetzen. Eine solche Lehrveranstaltung kann somit mehrere didaktische Elemente beinhalten: instruktives, konstruktives, kognitives und kooperatives Lernen. An der Erprobung nehmen etwa 80 Studierende an Veranstaltungen aus 8 Fachgebieten teil. Es werden Studien zur Evaluation des didaktischen Mehrwerts sowie technischer und organisatorischer Qualität durchgeführt. Endgültige Ergebnisse werden Ende 2003 vorliegen.(DIPF/Orig.)

Lehr- und Lernforschung in der Musikpädagogik

Das Thema der Tagung >Lehr- und Lernforschung in der Musikpädagogik< in Lingen im Herbst 2005 greift Forschungsbereiche auf, die für die Musikpädagogik vor dem Hintergrund der PISA-Studien im Allgemeinen und der gegenwärtig stattfindenden Entwicklung von Bildungsstandards für den Musikunterricht im Besonderen von zunehmender Bedeutung sind und angesichts der aktuellen Diskussion zur Einrichtung von Ganztagsschulen und deren absehbaren Konsequenzen für den herkömmlichen Musikunterricht der Notwendigkeit Rechnung tragen, die Fragestellungen der Unterrichtsforschung mehr als bisher auch auf Lehr- und Lernprozesse in den außerschulischen Bereichen zu erweitern mit dem Ziel einer Vernetzung der musikpädagogischen Forschung mit Ansätzen und Ergebnissen der Jugendsoziologie einerseits und andererseits der Erforschung des Musiklernens bei Erwachsenen und Senioren in der Lebensspanne.

Para cada área foi elaborada uma descrição, análise, reflexão e projeção acerca de todo o trabalho que lhes foi inerente. Foram também apresentadas as dificuldades encontradas e as estratégias desenvolvidas para as superar. Para finalizar efetuei um balanço sobre a contribuição que o processo de estágio teve na minha formação enquanto futura docente da disciplina de Educação Física, destacando ainda o estágio como um processo interligado.

Impact of Commercial Search Engines and International Databases on Engineering Teaching and Research

For the last three decades, the engineering higher education and professional environments have been completely transformed by the "electronic/digital information revolution" that has included the introduction of personal computer, the development of email and world wide web, and broadband Internet connections at home. Herein the writer compares the performances of several digital tools with traditional library resources. While new specialised search engines and open access digital repositories may fill a gap between conventional search engines and traditional references, these should be not be confused with real libraries and international scientific databases that encompass textbooks and peer-reviewed scholarly works. An absence of listing in some Internet search listings, databases and repositories is not an indication of standing. Researchers, engineers and academics should remember these key differences in assessing the quality of bibliographic "research" based solely upon Internet searches.

Research and teaching: a holy or an unholy alliance?

Much of the self-image of the Western university hangs on the idea that research and teaching are intimately connected. The central axiom here is that research and teaching are mutually supportive of each other. An institution lacking such a set of relationships between research and teaching falls short of what it means to be a university. This set of beliefs raises certain questions: Is it the case that the presence of such a mutually supportive set of relationships between research and teaching is a necessary condition of the fulfilment of the idea of the university? (A conceptual question). And is it true that, in practice today, such a mutually supportive set of relationships between research and teaching characterises universities? (An empirical question). In my talk, I want to explore these matters in a critical vein. I shall suggest that: a) In practice today, such a mutually supportive set of relationships between research and teaching is in jeopardy. Far from supporting each other, very often research and teaching contend against each other. Research and teaching are becoming two separate ideologies, with their own interest structures. b) Historically, the supposed tight link between research and teaching is both of recent origin and far from universally achieved in universities. Institutional separateness between research and teaching is and has been evident, both across institutions and even across departments in the same institution. c) Conceptually, research and teaching are different activities: each is complex and neither is reducible to the other. In theory, therefore, research and teaching may be said to constitute a holy alliance but in practice, we see more of an unholy alliance. If, then, in an ideal world, a positive relationship between research and teaching is still a worthwhile goal, how might it be construed and worked for? Seeing research and teaching as two discrete and unified sets of activity is now inadequate. Much better is a construal of research and teaching as themselves complexes, as intermingling pools of activity helping to form the liquid university that is emerging today. On this view, research and teaching are fluid spaces, ever on the move, taking up new shapes, and themselves dividing and reforming, as the university reworks its own destiny in modern society. On such a perspective, working out a productive relationship between research and teaching is a complex project. This is an alliance that is neither holy nor unholy. It is an uneasy alliance, with temporary accommodations and continuous new possibilities.

Recerca versus docència en una experiència d'internalització dels estudis de Geografia a la Universitat de Girona: The faces of landscape, Catalonia and North Karelia = Research versus teaching in one experience of internationalization of the Geography degree studies in the University of Girona: The faces of landscape, Catalonia and North Karelia

Un dels reptes cabdals de la Universitat és enllaçar l’experiència de recerca amb la docència, així com promoure la internacionalització dels estudis, especialment a escala europea, tenint present que ambdues poden actuar com a catalitzadores de la millora de la qualitat docent. Una de les fórmules d’internacionalització és la realització d’assignatures compartides entre universitats de diferents països, fet que suposa l’oportunitat d’implementar noves metodologies docents. En aquesta comunicació es presenta una experiència en aquesta línia desenvolupada entre la Universitat de Girona i la Universitat de Joensuu (Finlàndia) en el marc dels estudis de Geografia amb la realització de l’assignatura 'The faces of landscape: Catalonia and North Karelia'. Aquesta es desenvolupa al llarg de dues setmanes intensives, una en cadascuna de les Universitats. L’objectiu és presentar i analitzar diferents significats del concepte paisatge aportant també metodologies d’estudi tant dels aspectes físics i ecològics com culturals que s’hi poden vincular i que són les que empren els grups de recerca dels professors responsables de l’assignatura. Aquesta part teòrica es completa amb una presentació de les característiques i dinàmiques pròpies dels paisatges finlandesos i catalans i una sortida de camp. Per a la part pràctica es constitueixen grups d’estudi multinacionals que treballen a escala local algun dels aspectes en els dos països, es comparen i es realitza una presentació i defensa davant del conjunt d’estudiants i professorat. La llengua vehicular de l’assignatura és l’anglès.

Bridging the Gap: establishing the necessary infrastructure and knowledge for teaching and research in neuroscience in Africa.

Advances in neuroscience research over the last few decades have increased our understanding of how individual neurons acquire their specific properties and assemble into complex circuits, and how these circuits are affected in disease. One of the important motives driving neuroscience research is the development of new scientific techniques and interdisciplinary cooperation. Compared to developed countries, many countries on the African continent are confronted with poor facilities, lack of funding or career development programs for neuroscientists, all of which deter young scientists from taking up neuroscience as a career choice. This article highlights some steps that are being taken to promote neuroscience education and research in Africa.

Grinder's Group Mastery Theory : scientific research and its application to classroom teaching

Estudi centrat en el paper de la comunicació no verbal com a eina docent per a la gestió de l’aula, prenent com a referència el model de comunicació de Michael Grinder (Pentimento), basat en la Programació Neuro-lingüística (PNL). Aquest model s’analitza i es compara amb altres models i estudis sobre la comunicació no verbal, per establir-ne similituds i diferències. Per tal d’avaluar l’eficàcia de les tècniques de gestió de l’aula a través de la comunicació no verbal proposades per Grinder en un context educatiu real, s’inclouen i s’analitzen enregistraments de la implementació de diferents tècniques en un institut de secundària de Catalunya. Tota la informació recollida i analitzada permet valorar i ressaltar com és de significatiu tot allò que s’expressa més enllà del llenguatge, i per tant, com són d’importants i d’útils les habilitats comunicatives d’un professor en la seva tasca d’ensenyar.

Implications, large and small, from chemical education research for the teaching of chemistry

Research studies in chemical education pose a communication problem for chemists. Unlike the findings from other specializations in chemistry the findings in chemical education tend to be reported in education journals that are not readily accessible to most chemists or chemistry teachers. This lecture is an attempt to remedy this gap in communication. Research studies fall into three broad categories. (i) issues related to the content of chemistry itself, that is, What content to teach? And What meaning of each topic is to be conveyed? (ii) issues related to how chemical content is taught, such as, the role of lectures, practical work, particular pedagogies, etc. and (iii) issues related to its learning, that is, learning of concepts, conceptual change, motivation, etc. Findings in each of these categories of research over the last twenty years have drawn attention to opportunities for improving the quality of chemical education in each of the levels of formal education where chemistry is taught. Sometimes the research findings seem small since they, in fact, merely diagnose the actual problem in teaching and learning. At other times, the research findings are large because they provide a solution to these problems. What remains to be done is to disseminate the findings so that appropriate teaching occurs more widely, with its consequent gains in the quality of learning. Research findings, of these small and large types will be used to illustrate the potential of research to make the practice of chemical education more effective.
