Published: June 2021

This study explored the extent of documentary films’ effectiveness in introducing and promoting tourism in Sudan in which the film series Ard-AlSomur was taken as a case study. The basic premise was that documentary films which promoted tourism in Sudan had not been subjected toexistening professional and technical standards in television production process; many questions were presented, however, the most important of which was the extent thatArd-AlSomur series’ had contributedto promoting and guiding tourists to sites and tourism landmarks in Sudan. The descriptive and case study approach was used for which a questionnaire and an interview were adopted as data collection tools. The study was divided into three sections:  the first tackled the documentary film; the second was on tourism and media; and the third covered the field study’s procedures. A number of findings were reached, the most important of which are that: The Ard-alsumor films series have significantly contributed to the promotion of tourism in Sudan and that there are production weaknesses in documentaries that promote tourism in Sudan incompatible with theprofessional and artistic standards. Accordingly, the researcher recommends the conduction of more research to develop the area of documentary film industry in Sudan and to encourage investment in the media by engaging in the production of documentary films that promote tourism.

To achieve those objectives, the researcher adopted the descriptive research method. The sample included (400) female students whose average age was (22.5) years, selected by using a simple random sample. The study was conducted by administering three scales. The results of the study indicated that (50%) of the sample suffered from the selfie addiction between moderate to severe levels. There was a significant correlation between selfie addiction, self-esteem and body image. Moreover, it was found that both body image and self-esteem had a predictive ability to increase likelihood of selfie addiction among females. The study recommended that professionals should consider preparing prevention programs for those who have traits of a selfie addiction behavior.
A escravidão no discurso de Manoel Ribeiro Rocha: um homem em seu tempo (Brasil, século XVIII)
Authors: Fernandes da Silva Marta
Published: June 2021

O presente artigo visa analisar o discurso de Manoel Ribeiro Rocha expendido na sua obra Ethiope Resgatado, Empenhado, Sustentado, Corregido, Instruído E Libertado, publicada em 1758, tentando superar a tendência maniqueísta das interpretações que sobre o autor e a obra foram despendidas, ora como defensor “reformista” do sistema escravocrata do Brasil colonial, ora como abolicionista/revolucionário, algumas com manifesto aproveitamento político-ideológico. Procuraremos gizar a perspetiva que recoloque Manoel Ribeiro Rocha no seu tempo e lugar, defendendo que a ambiguidade e delicados equilíbrios atinentes ao seu contexto histórico, especialmente a imprescindibilidade do escravismo para a sustentação económica do Império Colonial Português, inevitavelmente, repercutiram naquela obra. Concluímos que Ribeiro Rocha, no século XVIII, lançou um olhar fundamentalmente pragmático sobre a escravidão, sem, contudo, desconsiderar uma perspetiva mais humanizante para os escravos africanos.

Lék na všechny nedostatky? Studijně‑analytická práce v ministerstvu vnitra v 60. letech 20. století
Authors:   Ústav pro studium totalitních režimů Česká republika, Bárta Milan
Published: June 2021

V souvislosti se společenským vývojem v komunistickém Československu se také v bezpečnostním aparátu začaly v polovině 60. let 20. století ozývat hlasy volající po nutnosti zásadních reforem. Podle vzoru Sovětského svazu a na základě pokynu vedení Komunistické strany Československa (KSČ) vznikla v roce 1963 na ministerstvu vnitra studijně‑analytická skupina, která byla v roce 1966 rozšířena na Studijní oddělení a v době Pražského jara na počátku srpna 1968 na Studijní ústav. Sdružovala vysoce vzdělané pracovníky, kteří udržovali kontakty s reformisty v řadách KSČ. Proti vedení ministerstva vnitra a Státní bezpečnosti (StB), hájícím pokračování tendencí přísně represivní složky navazujících na 50. léta, prosazovali modernizaci resortu, kde by Státní bezpečnost podstatně omezila svou činnost, především proti občanům Československa, a zaměřovala se hlavně na boj proti zpravodajským službám západních států. Střet vyvrcholil v roce 1968 během Pražského jara, kdy se ministrem vnitra stal Josef Pavel. Reformy připravené Studijním ústavem se měly stát novým programem reorganizace bezpečnostního aparátu. Následný vstup vojsk pěti států Varšavské smlouvy do Československa v srpnu 1968 s definitivní platností rozhodl o tom, že bezpečnostní složky, a zvláště pak StB, zůstanou hlavní oporou režimu spojovanou i nadále především s represemi proti vnitřním oponentům.
Positive and Negative Emotions During Study Abroad in South Korea: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Relationship Between Emotional Experiences and Language Proficiency Development
Authors: Johnson Bryce
Published: June 2021

This article explores the experiences of 10 study abroad sojourners in South Korea and the relationship between the positivity of their experiences and their language learning. As a mixed-methods study, it focuses first on the qualitative inquiry regarding how sojourners situate their emotional experiences in relation to their proficiency development. Next, it addresses the quantitative inquiry regarding whether there is a correlation between the positivity of an interaction and the type of interaction for learners at different proficiency levels. By centering on the interaction of emotion and language learning from a Critical, Poststructural lens, this mixed-methods study sheds light on how both positive and negative emotional experiences can be mobilized to promote language learning. While no statistical correlation between the positivity of an interaction and the type of interaction was found, an integration of the qualitative and quantitative results suggest that Critical approaches to study abroad preparation could empower sojourners to navigate otherwise destabilizing encounters while abroad. Furthermore, giving attention to sojourner identity (re)construction and reflective practices are shown to be effective strategies for mobilizing emotions toward proficiency development.
Hallyuand Korean Language Learning: Gender and Ethnicity Factors
Authors: Wang Hye-Sook , Pyun Danielle O.
Published: June 2021

According to recent Modern Language Association (MLA) reports (2015, 2019), student enrollment in Korean language classes shows the fastest growth among all foreign languages offered at US higher education institutions for the past decade. It is believed that such remarkable growth in the interest in the Korean language is to some extent indebted to the popularity of Korean popular culture, which is called Hallyu or “Korean Wave.” The present study examines the role of Hallyu in Korean language learning, focusing on the gender and ethnicity factors of learners. A survey of 180 US college learners of Korean was analyzed using descriptive statistics, two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson's correlation coefficient. The results indicated that both gender and ethnicity were found to be significant factors. That is, female nonheritage students' L2 Korean motivation was more strongly driven by their interest in Korean popular culture than that of male or heritage students, measured by the learners' consumption of Korean popular culture and their motivation for Korean language learning.
ANÁLISE NUMÉRICA E EXPERIMENTAL DO COMPORTAMENTO TÉRMICO DE TRANSFORMADOR À SECO SUPRINDO CARGAS NÃO-LINEARES
Authors: Mafra Rafael Gonçalves , Silva Sandro Metrevelle Marcondes de Lima e , Belchior Fernando Nunes
Published: June 2021

O comportamento térmico dos transformadores é afetado por cargas distorcidas causadas pela influência de equipamentos eletrônicos na corrente elétrica. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o comportamento térmico de um transformador do tipo seco de 5 kVA trabalhando com cargas lineares e não lineares. Termopares e PT100 foram utilizados para medir as temperaturas dentro dos núcleos. Além disso, ventiladores foram usados dentro dos transformadores para analisar a influência da convecção forçada nas temperaturas. Correlações empíricas da literatura foram utilizadas para determinar o coeficiente médio de transferência de calor utilizado na análise numérica e para validar os resultados obtidos neste trabalho. A emissividade da superfície do núcleo foi medida com uma câmera térmica. O software comsol foi utilizado para a simulação numérica do aquecimento de transformadores sob o efeito das diversas condições de carregamento e resfriamento. Comparações entre as temperaturas experimentais e numéricas foram realizadas para validar a metodologia. As temperaturas dos pontos mais quentes (Hot Spots) e suas localizações também puderam ser estimadas com esta metodologia. A temperatura dos Hot Spots no núcleo atingiu 20 °C acima do limite de isolamento do transformador. Essas temperaturas e locais servirão no futuro para otimizar projetos de resfriamento de transformadores do tipo CORE.
SIMULAÇÃO DE FENÔMENOS GERADOS PELO VENTO NO RESERVATÓRIO DE ITAIPU: ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA ENTRE MÉTODOS DE FETCH
Authors: Marques Marcelo , Guetter Alexandre Kolodynskie , Valdivia Alejandro Victor Hidalgo , Arantes Elaine Patricia , Ferreira Isabela Arantes
Published: June 2021

Uma parcela significativa da população mundial vive em áreas próximas a baías, lagos e reservatórios. Nestes ambientes o vento constitui-se no forçante de maior influência no processo de circulação hidrodinâmica e na formação de ondas. É bastante comum a determinação da altura destas ondas através de modelos paramétricos baseados na intensidade do vento atuante sobre uma superfície livre. Nestes corpos hídricos, devido à forte influência do formato das margens, as pistas de vento ou fetch, são geralmente determinadas através de métodos geométricos de aplicação pontual. A ausência de estudos comparativos sobre os métodos aplicados na determinação do fetch e a constatação de desvios consideráveis na determinação do fetch para o mesmo corpo d’água são os motivadores deste trabalho. São comparados três métodos de obtenção do fetch e determinados os desvios entre os resultados. A obtenção de mapas temáticos de distribuição do fetch bem como de mapas de desvios relativos foram obtidos pelo modelo computacional ONDACAD. Pela aplicação à porção sul do reservatório de Itaipu, é feita ainda uma análise preliminar de sensibilidade de modo a verificar a consequência dos desvios dos valores do fetch na altura resultante da onda sobre diferentes campos de vento.

Authors: Beuchling Olaf
Published: June 2021

Spanish Gitanos or Calé form one of the largest Romany minorities in the EU. While they lived at the margins of Spanish society over centuries, their living and educational conditions have improved considerably within the last three decades. This article focuses on the educational situation of the Gitanos by incorporating empirical studies published on that topic in the recent years in Spain. It can be shown that the schooling of this ethnic minority has improved on the one hand, while considerable educational disparities continue to exist in comparison to the majority population on the other hand. In conclusion, some recent challenges are discussed which are of relevance for this specific case of educational inequality.

Inequalities of Education as Consequences of Grouping Arrangements in Language Classes of Disadvantaged Children
Authors: Furcsa Laura
Published: June 2021

This paper describes the potential effects of grouping arrangements (in particular ability grouping) for language education in classes for disadvantaged children in Hungarian primary schools. The findings of the present paper are based on a larger study which aimed at identifying the major problems faced by disadvantaged foreign-language learners and their teachers. The paper aims to construct a detailed and comprehensive picture of the process of language learning perceived by both the children and their teachers. The main research tool was in-depth interviewing, combined with classroom observations. The research used purposive sampling and focused on rural primary schools attended by a considerable number of disadvantaged children situated in Hungary. The findings indicate that ability grouping for language instruction is a prevalent form of arrangement; however, it seems to have long-lasting negative effects on the achievement of the children in lower ability levels.

From No Child Left Behind to Flexibility: An Observation from East Asia
Authors: Chen Robin J.
Published: June 2021

Due to the highly demanding requirements of the No Child Left Behind Act, it seems out of the question for the U.S. government to achieve the original goal: 100% of students proficient at the national level by 2014. In order to conquer this challenging benchmark, the Obama Administration initiated regulations to waive individual state requirements and changed the content of accountability. This study is to demonstrate the change and the shift of the latest policy related above from the perspective of East Asia. In 2011 the Obama Administration declared the No Child Left Behind Act should be revised and the federal government initiate legislation to allow each state and the District of Columbia to apply for waivers from the No Child Left Behind regulations. This study argues the Obama Administration’s reform of No Child Left Behind will turn to a “fair accountability” system, which stresses a more positive discrimination of each state and school district. Compared to East Asian countries that receive recognition through international tests, the Obama Administration shows its policy philosophy as “regulated centrally, run independently.”
Understanding Curriculum as Phenomenon, Field, and Design: A Multidimensional conceptualization
Authors: Johnson-Mardones Daniel F.
Published: June 2021

This paper searches for an understanding of curriculum as a phenomenon, a field, and a design process. Curriculum is a complex phenomenon. Curriculum is also an “interdisciplinary academic field devoted to understanding curriculum” (Pinar, 2011, ix). In addition, curriculum also refers to the process of design through which the content of schooling is verified. The context of my endeavour is teacher education. In fact, thinking about curriculum becomes even more complex when thinking about how to teach it to future teachers. It seems to me that at this level we cannot avoid to assume a pluralistic view of the field thinking what is its historical legacy, including the major gap between curriculum theory and curriculum development. Therefore, the field of curriculum studies has changed by incorporating different dimensions to the concept of curriculum, making it a layered or multidimensional concept. I argue that a multidimensional concept of curriculum can be a powerful theoretical tool for understanding curriculum, to organized and create knowledge about it, and to inform the process of curriculum design.
The Foundation of Peace Education by Jan Amos Comenius (1592-1670) and its Topicality
Authors: Golz Reinhard
Published: June 2021

The foundation of a peace education was an integral part of the pansophic work of J.A. Comenius (1592-1670), a consequence of his own life experiences as a refugee, displaced persons and asylum seeker during the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648). As an educator, theologian, philosopher and linguist, Comenius significantly contributed to the reconciliation of peoples, cultures and religions. He can thus be seen as the founder of an intercultural, international and inter-religious peace education, whose growing importance in our times is obvious. Cultural and religious differences multiply in the wake of growing social problems. There is new relevance in acquiring the Comenian concept of intercultural and interreligious dialogue and peace education in the context of current general-xenophobic, racist and especially Islamophobic trends in parts of the German and European populations. Peace education must expose anti-humanist, xenophobic positions and educate on the benefits of cosmopolitan societies.
Collaborations with Tribal Elders for Sustainability Education
Authors: Scheuerman Richard D. , Gritter Kristine , Schuster Carrie Jim
Published: June 2021

Environmental sustainability studies are enhanced through local and regional partnerships between academicians and curriculum developers with members of area First Nation communities who have lived sustainably since time immemorial. Recent collaborative efforts between Seattle Pacific University’s School of Education and Snake River-Palouse tribal elder Carrie Jim Schuster have led to the development of a one semester, secondary level integrated history, geography, literature, and science curriculum investigating the indigenous peoples and environment of the Pacific Northwest’s Columbia-Snake River system. Seven core principles of cultural and environmental sustainability are discussed that were formulated through this collaboration involving Northwest tribal elders.
Education Between “Peace” and “Justice” in Times of Armed Conflict and Reconciliation – the Colombian Case
Authors: Meier Markus D. , Páez Manuel
Published: June 2021

This article deals with the role of education for peace building in the context of the Colombian post-conflict. It locates the former in the context of pragmatist and legalist approaches to post-conflict phases and analyses its “buffer role” between the two. A brief introduction to the history of the Colombian conflict is followed by theoretical considerations about educational aspects of the armed conflict and the educational requirements for successful “phases of transition”. The problem of the fragile balance between “supporting the victim” and “reintegrating the victimizer” is seen as a systemic challenge to the community, but also to society at large. Conclusively, the problem of “pedagogical stagings” is discussed in this context.
О диалоге культур и целях образования в условиях глобальных кризисов
Authors: Иванов Евгений Вячеславович
Published: June 2021

The article represents the author’s reflections about contemporary challenges humankind during global crises and their dialectical interrelationship with cultures’ interactions and modern educational objectives. Within the context of European multicultural crises the following idea is advanced and proved: «What is good for one culture is not always acceptable, and occasionally harmful, for the other one». In the context of global crises the following problem of humankind that compels us to rethink some current life values and priorities, is advanced: «How to move on in order to survive?». The difference between communist and capitalist ways of development consists of political and economic mechanisms of achievement of global purpose: the accomplishment of the constantly growing urge of people – ‘to have everything’. There is the question: «Is this the right purpose?». In the conclusion of the article it is mentioned that the global strategic goal of modern education is humankind’s deliverance from consumer psychology. People need to recognize and give priority to inner values and pay careful attention to the moral aspect of human existence.
Diversity management strategies for the adaptation of educational systems to the challenges of social marginalization
Authors: Nesterenko Galyna , Yemelianenko Ievgeniia
Published: June 2021

Marginalization in the classical interpretation refers to the development in a traditional sustainable society of groups and individuals, positioned in a borderline, precarious state with respect to their social and cultural identity. Marginalization, thus, is a multifaceted process, reinforcing the internal diversity of a society. Today, the traditional society itself exists as an unstable network of disparate social groups. <The latter are in fact closed systems, which are connected by more discrete, formal communicative contacts rather than essential connections. Identifications currently are not woven into a strong social structure, and this structure itself is a transient, flexible mass. Therefore, we do not deal with individual marginal groups arising in a society, but with solid marginalized masses, among which there are “islands” of the traditional population groups. Processes of globalization and integration in the society, strengthening of social dynamics, migration, etc. are the objective reasons for this. In the context of strong ethnic and cultural diversity, military and political tensions, environmental and economic crises, rise in property stratification, social exclusion and inequality – processes of individual self-realization become more complicated. To create conditions for each individual’s development in order to meet urgent needs and improve life quality, becomes first of all the task of an educational system. All this requires more flexibility and adaptability of educational systems, which they unfortunately do not have. Under these challenges it is necessary to focus on finding ways of educational humanization in order to overcome the negative effects of marginalization processes and to use their innovation potential.
Transcendent and Tragic Aspects of American Philosophy: Religiöse Vielfalt im amerikanischen Pragmatismus – neue Einsichten
Authors: Retter Hein
Published: June 2021

This essay builds on Wilhelm Wundt’s thesis from 1911that American pragmatism („American philosophy“) can only be understood through its religious philosophy. When examining this claim more closely, one can discover an impressive multiplicity of religious perspectives with a modern habitus among the founding fathers of pragmatism. They generate insights worthy of consideration for contemporary societies advancing in secular processes. Some of these insights are tragic because they concern problems of our time that cannot be solved „pragmatically“.

Authors: Александрова Марина Викторовна , Александрова Наталья Викторовна
Published: June 2021

The article discusses some aspects of children’s mental health problems in the context of the contemporary socio-cultural situation. It is shown that the conditions for the development of today’s children have a significant impact on their mental health. These include: the reduction of the childhood period due to early learning, the absorption of childhood by adult culture, fragmentation and individualism, the need to adapt quickly to changing conditions, and others.). There is a need to identify the resources for modern social and cultural situations, which would become a source of maintaining and strengthening the children’s mental health, for their full development. Caring for children’s mental health requires the accommodation for the full childhood period, personal identity development, and interpersonal relations, formation of a moral position, development of reflective and cognitive personality spheres, the development of games and other children’s activities, and developing effective coping strategies.

The Institutionalization of Inclusive Migration Pedagogy as an Academic Discipline in the Context of Austrian Teacher Training
Authors: Oberlechner Manfred
Published: June 2021

Since the 2016-17 winter semester, migration has become an essential component of the theoretical and practical teacher training in the central region (Upper Austria, Salzburg) as part of the interdisciplinary unit on diversity and inclusion. Reflective and inclusive migration pedagogy requires therefore extensive self-critical reflection work by teachers and students on recognizing difference and plurality, critically examining structures of discrimination and privilege, such as age, class, education, place of residence, physical and mental disabilities, giftedness, sexual orientation, beliefs, religion, and also racially-motivated dehumanization and ethnic stereotypes. In 2013 the “Federal Framework Law Introducing New Training for Educationalists” was passed in the Austrian National Council, thereby creating the legal basis for the education policy project PädagogInnenbildung NEU (see URL: https://www.bmb.gv.at/schulen/lehr/labneu/index.html; retrieved August 10, 2016).

A Meta-Analysis of Middle School Students’ Science Engagement
Authors: Aker Leanna B. , Ellis Arthur K.
Published: June 2021

The extent to which middle school students are engaged in required science courses is an elusive but increasingly documented phenomenon. Anecdotal and empirical evidence alike raise concern with a perceived decline in science engagement reported by students as they transition into the middle school setting. Even what it means to be engagé is not thoroughly agreed on. Though an agreed-on operational definition of engagement is still nascent, an emerging consensus on a three-faceted model of student engagement exists in the research literature (Fredricks, Blumenfeld, & Paris, 2004). Thus, a synthesis of existing primary research of early adolescents’ science engagement under this emerging conceptualization is warranted. The results of this meta-analysis indicate that instructional methods, class characteristics and competence predictors comprise the strongest relationship with self-reported science engagement in early adolescence. These predictors also show the strongest relationship with affective and cognitive engagement sub-types. Though affective and cognitive engagement were well-represented in primary studies, behavioral engagement was under-represented in student self-reports.
The Relationship between Principal Self-Efficacy and Organizational Citizenship Behavior of Teachers
Authors: Alshaikh Abdulaziz M. , Bond John B.
Published: June 2021

Self-efficacy and organizational citizenship behaviors in schools are critical to understanding interactions between principals and teachers. The main purpose of this research is to look for the relationship between principals’ self-efficacy (PSE) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) of teachers. Theoretically, self-efficacy is rooted in constructivism, and, particularly, in social cognitive theory, which is grounded in the work of Bandura. OCB, according to Organ, Podsakoff, and MacKenzie (2006), is defined as “individual behavior that is discretionary, not directly or explicitly recognized by the formal reward system, and in the aggregate promotes the efficient and effective functioning of the organization” (p. 3).Williams (1988) asserted that OCB is composed of two dimensions: benefits to the individual and benefits to the organization. Interestingly, there is no study, thus far, that addresses the connection between PSE and the OCB of teachers.
Fluidity and Education
Authors: Oberlechner Manfred
Published: June 2021

This article shows why and how fluidity educates and is therefore of educational relevance for student teachers. If education sees the developmental process of the whole person, with regard to his or her “humanity”, as a life-long learning process, in which the individual expands his or her intellectual, cultural, creative and practical abilities and skills, then fluidity offers new perspectives for pedagogy. Education is then related to the subject’s exploration of inner and outer fluid realities, as processes of learning or socialization in an increasingly fluid postmodern society.
Experiential Learning in Business Communication: Starting a Peer-Reviewed Student Journal and Podcast
Authors: Richardson Marianna E. , Stenquist Ryan , Stenquist Jenny
Published: June 2021

Ancient Greeks such as Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle realized the need for combining intellectual, theoretical learning with practical, real-world experiences. Modern educational theorists continue to make similar pleas for the need of a more holistic and experiential view of education. To promote experiential learning in business communication, Brigham Young University – Provo (BYU) started a peer-reviewed student journal and podcast for business students. The students’ experiences mirror Kolb’s experiential learning theory cycle (1984) and Mezirow’s theories on critical reflection and transformative learning, (1990, 1998, 2000). Students’ reflective comments were reviewed using Morris’ (2019) five characteristics of concrete learning experiences. Additionally, student ratings for this course are compared to other business management courses at BYU. These comparisons illustrate the high rating students give experiential learning courses. As the journal and podcast continue to grow in popularity, the opportunities for students have also grown because the students are gaining practical experience for future careers.
Arts and Academic Achievement―Empirical Evidence for Arts Realities in United States Education Law and Around the World
Authors: Joseph AnnRené
Published: June 2021

That the arts enhance academic achievement has been a claim of educators for the past century. This experimental study examined whether and to what extent the use of creative dramatics interventions increased the vocabulary achievement of fourth grade students in a language arts classroom. The 20-day study was conducted across five weeks of school―for 45 minutes each day―during the normally scheduled language arts instruction block. It included a pretest, 17 consecutive school days of instruction, and a posttest. A retention test was administered five weeks later. Three fourth grade teachers were randomly assigned to a random sample of 83 fourth graders. The study was conducted at a Learning Assistance Program (LAP) reading and math school, in a large rural school district in Washington State. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the demographics of the sample…inferential statistics were used to calculate the differences between groups. (Joseph, 2013/2014, pp. 2-3)

The Hanseatic League and Education - A Neglected Chapter in European and German History
Authors: Graumann Olga , Affeldt Sören
Published: June 2021

The focus of this article is on the connection between education and the Hanseatic League, a topiclargely neglected in educational literature, although the qualification needs of Hanseatic merchants had a remarkable influence on the development of German and European education. The Hanseatic League as a network between merchant families, friends and trading partners, its temporal limitation from about the12th to the 17th century, its spatial expansion, its offices at home and abroad as well as its trading goods are discussed in detail.The main part of the article is dedicated to education. The general history of education in the Middle Ages cannot be separated from the specific history of merchant education. However, it can be stated that both strands of development have mutually fertilized each other. Of particular interest for today's educational processes is the importance of "learning abroad" to learn foreign languages and get to know foreign cultures, as well as the "learning by doing" that characterized the education of merchants in the Middle Ages. Since the Hanseatic League has been misused in the field of education for political ideologization over the past two centuries, a brief overview of the reception of the Hanseatic League in the history of education is appropriate.The topic is rounded off by emphasizing the importance of the European Hanseatic Museum inLübeck, founded in 2015, for education today.

Reflection and Evaluation of Distance Education in School
Authors: Chahin-Dörflinger Fatima
Published: June 2021

When schools in Germany were closed in Spring 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, distance teaching and learning was implemented. Teachers and schools strived to recreate learning programs and education in a new and unknown way. To learn about ways that distance learning can work well for students and schools, several teachers and principals started to evaluate their distance teaching and learning with scientific support of the evaluation service center of the Institute of Educational Analysis (IBBW). The findings of this action research led to a model of orientation for reflection and development of digital distance teaching and learning in schools.
Methodological Perspectives on Researching Home Schooling due to the Corona Pandemic: An Invitation to Think Further
Authors: Mußél Fabian , Kondratjuk Maria
Published: June 2021

This article presents two quantitative studies examining the influences of the Corona pandemic for home schooling in Germany. Subsequently, the first impulses for a more profound qualitative oriented educational research should be given. In this way, this article attempts to identify the possibilities and limits of qualitative educational research, as was painfully demonstrated by the “ad hoc” interests of society in the example of the Corona pandemic. The article thus poses the overarching question of what contribution qualitative educational research can make for a better understanding of the consequences – the social in general and the educational in particular – the pandemic causes. Categories as sensitizing concepts emerging from the studies are presented: learning time and time regimes; feedback and support services; as well as the maintenance of communicative and pedagogical components of teaching in digital formats in terms of educational theory. We would like to invite the reader to methodologically discuss these categories in order to think further.
Coronavirus Pandemic in Spring and Summer 2020 and the School in Germany
Authors: Waterkamp Dietmar
Published: June 2021

What we are doing to continue learning during the current pandemic is not so much an experiment as a reaction. Given the rush to provide schooling for children and young people, helpful terms such as “distance learning”, “online schooling” and “homework” are mentioned. The author notes that both educators and economists are concerned about the short and long-term effects of our situation, especially with regard to disadvantaged groups, and he points out that the “new normality” may well become normal.
Social-Emotional Learning in a Time of Chaos
Authors: Bond John B.
Published: June 2021

Over the last generation public schools in the United States have strongly emphasized student achievement as measured by standardized tests. In this paper the role Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) can play in improving student success is emphasized. Research on SEL has shown that student achievement is positively affected by SEL programming. Yet, an argument continues over how the limited time in the classroom is used. As the world faces a pandemic during which students are often not attending school in person, their social-emotional health is of increased concern.
Make Healing, not Performance, the Goal for K-12 Schools Amid this Global Pandemic
Authors: Shea Munyi , Awdziejczyk Alexis N.
Published: June 2021

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has had far reaching implications on every aspect of human life – from where we work, to where we feel safe to grocery shop, to how we greet friends. At the same time, the pandemic has exposed long-standing issues of structural racism, xenophobia, social and economic inequities, precipitating multiple large-scale social justice movements and demonstrations in the United States, culminating in “dual public health emergencies.” As Kindergarten through Grade 12 (K-12) students slowly return to school, educators are grappling with how to support their students amid these overlapping crises. In this paper, we discuss the relevance of trauma-informed pedagogy, with a specific focus on 3Rs – relational connectedness, restored trust, and contextualized resilience. We urge educators to keep the whole child at the center of their curriculum, and to make healing – not performance – the priority for K-12 schools amid and following the global pandemic.
