Online-Lehre mit System: Wie man in der digitalen Lehre passgenaue Lernimpulse setzt und neue Lernerfahrungen ermöglicht (essentials)

by Martina Eckert

Dieses Buch zeigt, wie eine gelungenen Online-Lehre an Hochschulen mit dem Lernzyklus-Modell von David Kolb aufgebaut und durchgeführt werden kann. Zu Beginn der Corona-Krise 2020 mussten Lehrkräfte an Hochschulen und in der Fort- und Weiterbildung sehr schnell von der Präsenzlehre auf Online-Lehre umschwenken. Nicht nur die technischen Herausforderungen waren zu bewältigen. Durch den veränderten Zugang waren didaktische Hürden zu nehmen und Lernende auf Distanz zu motivieren, zu instruieren und Lernprozesse zu steuern. In solchen radikalen Veränderungs-Situationen ist man auf Beispiele und Modelle angewiesen. Will man sich nicht in Versuch und Irrtum verschleißen, braucht man einen Orientierungsrahmen – ein Design. David Kolb hat in den 1970er Jahren bereits seinen Lernzyklus zum Erfahrungslernen vorgelegt. Er eignet sich hervorragend um zu verstehen: welche Lernschritte vollzogen werden müssen, damit Studierende Wissen erwerben und den Lerntransfer leisten können,welche unterschiedlichen Lernbedürfnisse und Lernstile Studierende haben und wie man diese motivierend bedient,wie man Lehrmaterialien und Instruktionen am besten gestaltet, um als Lehrende/r eine möglichst nachhaltige und ganzheitliche Lernerfahrung zu initiieren,welche Entlastungen sich mittelfristig in der Lehre durch Teil-Automatisierung in digitalen Lehrformen ergeben.Mit den neuen digitalen Möglichkeiten eröffnen sich jetzt neue und spannende Perspektiven in der Lehre. Dieses Buch gibt praxiserprobte Tipps, diese Chancen zu nutzen.

Online Resilience and Wellbeing in Young People: Representing the Youth Voice (Palgrave Studies in Cyberpsychology)

by Andy Phippen Louisa Street

This book explores online resilience and safety from a new perspective, by drawing extensively upon the youth voice. While “online safety” as a concept has now existed for well over ten years, the majority of policy and narrative is driven by preventative and adultist views of ensuring safety from harm. Underpinned by extensive empirical work, this book argues that safety, or freedom from harm, is not an achievable goal and we should refocus upon harm reduction and risk mitigation. Fundamental to this argument is that the youth voice clearly states that they will not disclose, or ask adults for support, because they do not believe they will get help or worse, will be punished as a result of disclosure. The research shows that professionals often bring their own digital value biases into safeguarding decisions, and feel that they should be white knights to young people, rather than listening to them and supporting them in a non-judgemental way. The book will be of great value to researchers and students as well as practitioners, teachers and parents interested in digital resilience and safeguarding, internet security and youth online behaviour and wellbeing.

Online Supervision: A Handbook for Practitioners

by Anne Stokes

As online therapy becomes more mainstream, the importance of using a means of supervision which parallels this is increasingly being recognised by practitioners and the professional bodies. Very little has been written about this newly developing way of working, so this book is timely. Online Supervision: A Handbook for Practitioners covers a wide range of issues, from the practical aspects of how supervision happens, through research, legal and ethical issues to specific therapeutic settings and issues. Existing models of supervision are considered in the context of the online setting and new models which have been developed specifically for supervising online are explored.All chapters are authored by experienced online therapists and supervisors, who bring their considerable knowledge from their practice to illuminate this growing area of the profession. In many chapters, anonymised case examples illustrate the text, alongside reflective activities which readers can choose to undertake.While the book aims to develop the practice of online supervision of online therapists, it is recognised that there are circumstances which mean that some practitioners may choose to engage in online supervision of their face-to-face work. This is recognised and guidelines for offering and engaging in online supervision are discussed. Many practitioners begin to offer online supervision without specialised training and the final chapter centres on a discussion about the value and necessity of undertaking preparation for working in a new medium.Online Supervision: A Handbook for Practitioners will be highly readable and accessible to both experienced practitioners and newcomers to this field.

Online Teaching and Learning in the COVID-19 Era: Perspectives on Equity and Epistemic Justice

by Felix Maringe Otilia Chiramba

This book examines the ongoing changes initially caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the future prospects of teaching and learning in higher education institutions. It focuses on the impact of online education on issues of learning equity and epistemic justice. The transition from traditional face-to-face teaching to remote learning has exacerbated existing inequalities in epistemological access among higher education students, despite the shortcomings of the former in this regard. The book features essays by African academics who reflect on the challenges of epistemological access during the sudden shift to hybrid, blended and remote teaching and learning. It specifically explores the question of equitable learning in diverse home contexts, drawing on both theoretical and empirical studies conducted by the authors in South African universities and the region. The chapters employ the conceptual framework of epistemic injustice to define and explore various forms of such injustice, providing a basis for analyzing the implications of the transition to online pedagogy.

Open: Love, Sex and Life in an Open Marriage

by Jenny Block

Finally, a book about open marriage that grapples with the problems surrounding monogamy and fidelity in an honest, heartfelt, and non-fringe manner. Jenny Block is your average girl next door, a suburban wife and mother for whom married life never felt quite right. While many books on this topic presuppose that the reader is ready to embrace an "alternative lifestyle,” Block operates from the assumption that most couples who are curious about or engaged in open marriages are in fact more like her - normal people who question whether monogamy is right for them; good people who love their spouses but want variation; capable parents who are not deviant just because they choose to be honest about their desires. Open challenges our notions of what traditional marriage looks like, and presents one woman's journey down an uncertain path that ultimately proves open marriage is a viable option for her and others.
