Evolutionsbiologie im Biologieunterricht der SBZ/DDR
Full text linkSoftcover, 17x24Erkenntnisse aus den Bereichen der Evolutionsbiologie prägten wissenschaftliche und öffentliche Debatten der letzten 200 Jahre. Bereits 1877 forderte Ernst Haeckel ihre Einbindung in den Schulunterricht und stieß damit auf heftigen Widerstand (vgl. Hoßfeld, 2010, S. 56). Wie Lässig (2010, S. 199) darlegt, wird Wissen gesellschaftlich vorstrukturiert. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Genese von Stellenwert und Darstellung evolutionsbiologischer Inhalte im Biologieunterricht der SBZ/DDR aufzuzeigen sowie diese in den jeweils herrschenden Kontext politisch-gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen einzubetten. Ausgangsmaterialien sind relevante Lehrpläne sowie Schullehrbücher als „konkreteste Kodifizierung des in den Lehrplänen fixierten Inhalts“ (Neuner, 1989, S. 411). Eine primär deskriptive Examensarbeit dient der Untersuchung als Grundlage, da die Geschichte des Schülerbuches bisher nur in wenigen Fachbereichen gründlich erforscht ist (vgl. Rommel, 2006; vgl. Pöggeler, 2003, S. 37). Darauf aufbauend wird ein Analyseraster vorgestellt, welches einem multidimensionalen Forschungsansatz folgend, Aspekte der Bezugssysteme Design, Fachdidaktik und Fachwissenschaft Biologie beinhaltet. Die Auswertung der Quellen erfolgt produktorientiert in Einzel- und vertikalen Gruppenanalysen unter dem Primat der Interdisziplinarität mittels inhaltsanalytischer Methoden. Bei der abschließenden Diskussion der Ergebnisse wird die Rückwirkung soziokultureller Veränderungen auf die Schulbücher verdeutlicht. Es wird gezeigt, dass evolutionsbiologischen Inhalten im Biologieunterricht der SBZ/DDR eine exponierte Stellung zukam, deren Darstellung divergenten Ansätzen und Präferenzen folgte. In diesem Zusammenhang erfolgt die Einordnung der Lehr- und Lernmaterialien als Informatorium, Pädagogikum und Politikum (vgl. Stein, 1991).The scientific and public discussions over the last 200 years were shaped by findings from the field of evolutionary biology. Back in 1877, when Ernst Haeckel asked for the inclusion of evolutionary biology into class, he was met with fierce resistance (see Hoßfeld, 2010, p. 56). As Lässig (2010, p. 199) argues, knowledge is socially shaped. The aim of this study is to reveal the development of the significance as well as presentation of evolutionary biological contents in biology class within the SOZ/GDR and to embed it into the context of the respective prevailing political and social developments. Relevant curricula and schoolbooks as the most precise codification of the curricula fixed contents (see Neuner, 1989, p. 411) were used as raw material. For most subjects the history of schoolbooks is barely studied (see Pöggeler, 2003, p. 37). Therefore, as basis for this study, only one primary descriptive thesis about evolutionary biology in class (Rommel, 2006) could be used. Based thereupon an analytical framework will be introduced which follows a multidimensional approach of research by containing aspects of the three reference systems design, subject didactics and subject discipline. Product oriented separate and group analyses were used to evaluate the sources. This was carried out under the primacy of interdisciplinarity via analysis by content. The feedback of sociocultural changes on school books will be clarified in the concluding discussion. It will be shown that evolutionary contents occupied a significant position in biology classes within the SOZ/GDR and that the expression of those contents followed divergent approaches and preferences. The classification of teaching and learning material as an informational, pedagogical and political issue (see Stein, 1991) is taking place in the same context
Den Begriff „Rasse“ überwinden
Full text linkThe common concern of the authors of this publication is to offer a variety of ideas and concepts for overcoming the concept of ""race"" against the background of its history. The Jena Declaration of 2019 serves as an impulse to rethink (higher) education nationwide.
The focus will be on aspects of the history of science and its central actors as well as on current perspectives of modern educational work critical of racism. Reports by representatives of selected places of learning who place remembrance and dialogue at the centre of their practical work as well as concrete, didactically methodically prepared teaching suggestions (best practice) and suggestions from various school subjects complete the work
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
