Religious Literacy in Early Childhood Education as a Societal Resource in Immigrant Societies
(2022)
Western immigration societies are struggling with numerous of educational challenges. Every third, sometimes every second child has an immigration biography and teachers working in early childhood education are often minimally prepared to deal with the resulting diverse and complex conditions of cultural and religious diversity. Children and Childhood studies show that religion is an essential reference point for migrant families and their children. How could these empirical settings be transformed into intercultural and inter-religious competences and spiritual well-being in early childhood education? In which ways religious education in pre-schools provides a “safe place” or space of negotiating (religious) identity, value building, resilience, and the capacity to deal with pluralism and otherness? On the basis of empirical and theoretical results, the opportunities of religious education in early childhood education for developing an attitude of global citizenship should be taken into serious consideration
Education institutions in European immigration societies must struggle with a lot of challenges. About one-third of the refugees are school-age children and youth. Every third child has a migration biography and many of the refugee and displaced children and youth come from Arabic countries. They bring along their various religious affiliation and culture into secular societies formerly molded by Christianity. This situation requires a lot of special accommodations for educational institutions like schools, kindergarten, and religious communities. Besides language barriers and being mindful of their traumatic experiences, educational actors need to be sensitive in particular with intercultural and interreligious conflict situations, anti-Semitic or Islamophobic positions and radicalization tendencies of cultural and/or religious identity.
The background for this topic is provided by the experiences of children and youth, who give us an insight into the clash of different religions and cultures in immigrant educational systems, into the significance of faith, the complexity of hybrid identities, but also the experience of being subaltern. That there is the importance of religious literacy for coping with the impacts of migration in educational work in schools, churches and religious communities will finally be discussed.
Measuring Motivational Concepts and Personality: Aspects in the National Educational Panel Study
(2019)
Dieses Kapitel stellt die Auswahl und den Einsatz von motivationalen Konzepten und Persönlichkeitsaspekten im Nationalen Bildungspanel vor. Die Konstruktauswahl basierte dabei auf Gemeinsamkeiten gängiger Motivations- und Persönlichkeitstheorien, um dadurch Forschungsarbeiten aus verschiedenen theoretischen Perspektiven anzuregen. Aufgenommen wurden Lernmotivation und Anstrengungsbereitschaft, persönliche Ziele, allgemeine Interessenorientierungen, Sachinteresse, Selbstkonzept (allgemein und domänenspezifisch), sowie Persönlichkeitsaspekte und ausgewählte Dimensionen sozialer Kompetenzen und des Erziehungsverhaltens. Bei der Auswahl der theoretischen Konstrukte und der zu deren Erfassung einzusetzenden Testverfahren stand die Anwendbarkeit über den gesamten Lebensverlauf hinweg im Vordergrund. Innerhalb des Nationalen Bildungspanels trägt diese integrierende Zusammenstellung von motivationalen Konzepten und Persönlichkeitsaspekten zur Verbesserung des Verständnisses von Bildungsprozessen und Kompetenzentwicklung von der frühen Kindheit bis ins späte Erwachsenenalter bei.
This chapter outlines the use and measurement of motivational concepts and personality aspects in the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS). The selection of concepts combines elements that prevalent motivation and personality theories have in common, thereby promoting research from different theoretical perspectives. The constructs measured are learning motivation and effort, personal goals and goal pursuit, general interest orientations, topic-related interests, self-concept (both general and domain-specific), personality aspects, and selected social skills and parenting behavior dimensions. These theoretical constructs and their corresponding measurements presented in this chapter were chosen on the basis of their applicability across the complete life course. Within NEPS, this integrated compilation of motivational concepts and personality aspects improves our understanding of educational processes and competence development from infancy to late adulthood.
This paper presents the ongoing development of HAnS (Hochschul-Assistenz-System), an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) designed to support self-directed digital learning in higher education. Initiated by twelve collaborating German universities and research institutes, HAnS is developed 2021–2025 with the goal of utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data in academic settings to enhance technology-based learning. The system employs AI for speech recognition and the indexing of existing learning resources, enabling users to search and compile these materials based on various parameters. Here, we provide an overview of the project, showcasing how iterative design and development processes contribute to innovative educational research in the evolving field of AI-based ITS in higher education. Notwithstanding the potential of HAnS, we also deliberate upon the challenges associated with ensuring a suitable dataset for training the AI, refining complex algorithms for personalization, and maintaining data privacy.
