Dieses Buch zeigt, wie lebendig, (selbst-)kritisch und anregend historische Forschungen in der Pädagogik sind. Es setzt deutliche Akzente gegen das sukzessive Zurückdrängen von historisch-systematischen Themen in Forschung und Lehre. Die Auseinandersetzungen mit den (Dis-)Kontinuitäten in der Geschichte des Faches erhalten immer wieder neue Impulse, auch aus anderen Disziplinen. Moderne Begriffsverwirrungen lassen sich oftmals gewinnbringend durch einen aufmerksamen Blick in die Geschichte klären, und allzu übereilte Reformbestrebungen in der Gegenwart brechen sich in den Erinnerungen an frühere Versuche und Einsichten. Das alles zeigt sich länderübergreifend in Slowenien, Kroatien, Österreich und Deutschland.
This handbook provides a comprehensive, scholarly overview of teacher education in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), since the fall of communism in 1989. It looks closely at recent trends, emerging practices, and possible futures for teacher education in twenty-one CEE countries – reaching from the Balkans, through the Visegrad Group, to Eastern Europe and the Baltics. The contributing authors reflect on their own countries’ uphill battles and journeys towards modernising teacher education over the last three decades. Subsequently, contemporary teacher education policies, structures, and practices are explored in light of Bologna reforms, EU higher education policies, and globalisation processes. Each chapter also offers some predictions about likely future trajectories – with concrete suggestions on how to develop and improve teacher education systems in response to the growing pressures of neoliberal ideologies. The Palgrave Handbook of Teacher Education in Central and Eastern Europe provides a valuable reference that enriches the work of scholars, students, policymakers, and practitioners across CEE and beyond.
The so-called nation states have created ethnical minorities. Also due to migration, cultural diversity is the reality. The multicultural society is strongly reproduced in the schools all over Europe. Cultural diversity in the classroom is increasingly recognized as a potential which should not be neglected. The educational system has, above all, to provide all children with equal opportunities. Experts from Finland, the UK, Hungary, Spain, Greece, Cyprus, and other European states, mostly responsible for teacher education, have contributed to this volume with critical, but constructive remarks on the classroom reality in their countries. This book is valuable reading for academics and practitioners in educational sciences.
Normalität, Abnormalität und Devianz existieren in allen Gesellschaften. Allerdings entfalten sie in der Moderne ihre spezifische Bedeutung und Brisanz. Die Beiträge in diesem Band analysieren die Konzeptionen und Konstruktionsprozesse aus inter- bzw. teildisziplinären Perspektiven der Erziehungswissenschaft. Historisch interessierte Vertreterinnen der Allgemeinen Pädagogik und der Sonderpädagogik nähern sich den Phänomenen und deren Interpretationen behutsam und (selbst-)kritisch aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln. Sie schreiben ein Stück Geschichte der Erziehung und zugleich auch der Sonderpädagogik entlang der sozialen Konstruktionen von normalen und abnormalen Kindern und Jugendlichen. Verschiedene, aber verwandte Gesichtspunkte der beiden Teildisziplinen verweben sich zu einem farbigen Gesamtbild der Thematik. Dieser Band enthält neben 17 Beiträgen auf Deutsch auch 6 Beiträge auf Englisch.
Interpreting the modern heritage of ‘Bildung’ in connection to education theory, this open access volume explores non-affirmative theory of education and ‘Bildung’ as a language of education for the 21st century. In this ‘Bildung’-centered view of education, discerning thought on knowledge and values are critical objectives of education. To promote these aims, education practice must recognize but not affirm existing conditions or future ideals but instead pedagogically summon the student to self-directed critical treatment of the contents. Drawing on contemporary developments of modern education theory, especially as developed by Dietrich Benner in Berlin, the volume highlight how ‘educative teaching’ aims at supporting the growth of the individual as a person and citizen. The volume shows how it is possible to identify a position beyond education either as a mere transformative or a reproductive power. Instead of such an instrumentalism, education is seen as a critical societal practice, necessary for reflexive action and democracy. In different ways, the chapters demonstrate how non-affirmative theory offer an alternative to contemporary neo-liberal and conservative policies. The non-affirmative approach offers a strong education theory, relationally connecting the interactive level of teaching, studying and learning with the societal level and educational governance. Non-affirmative theory on education and ‘Bildung’ provides an elaborate point of departure for empirical research on teaching and educational leadership, teacher education and policy making. In five sections, the volume highlights how non-affirmative education theory relate to Didaktik, educative teaching, school didactics, democratic education and social justice. The approach is also analysed in relation to phenomenology, sociology, hermeneutics, cultural-historical activity theory, discursive institutionalism, empirical research, educational leadership and governance and 21st century competencies.
