Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Die kopernikanische Revolution
Book SynopsisDie Geschichte der kopernikanischen Revolution wurde bereits oft geschrieben, doch meines Wissens nicht unter dem Blickwinkel und in dem Umfang, die hier beabsichtigt sind. Vielerlei Einzelereignisse verbergen sich hinter dem Schlagwort von der Wende oder Revolution. Ihr Kern war eine Umwandlung der mathematischen Astronomie, doch brachte sie auch begriff liche Änderungen in der Kosmologie, Physik, Philosophie und Religion mit sich. Einzelaspekte der kopernikanischen Revolution wurden wiederholt untersucht, und ohne die daraus entstandenen Abhandlungen hätte dieses Buch nicht geschrieben werden können. Die Vielfalt der Umwälzungen übersteigt die Fähigkeiten des einzelnen Gelehrten, der die ursprünglichen Quellen studiert. Sowohl spezialisierte Untersuchungen als auch die darauf aufbauenden vereinfachenden Darstellungen verfehlen jedoch notwendiger weise einen der wichtigsten und faszinierendsten Züge der Revolution - ein Charakteristikum, das aus der Vielfalt der Umwälzung selbst entspringt. Wegen dieser Vielfalt bietet die kopernikanische Wende eine ideale Gelegenheit zu sehen, wie und mit welchem Ergebnis Vorstellungen aus vielen verschiedenen Gebieten sich zu einem einzigen Gedankengebäude zusammenfügen. Kopernikus selbst war ein Spezialist, ein mathematischer Astronom, der an der Korrektur esoterischer Methoden zur Berechnung von Planetenpositionen interessiert war. Oft war die Richtung seiner For schung jedoch durch Entwicklungen bestimmt, die mit der Astronomie nichts zu tun hatten. Darunter befanden sich die veränderte Darstellung des Falles von Steinen im Mittelalter, die Wiederbelebung mystischer, antiker Anschau ungen in der Renaissance, die die Sonne als das Abbild Gottes betrachteten, und die Atlantikreisen, die den Horizont des Menschen der Renaissance erweiterten.Table of Contents1 Das antike Universum.- 2 Das Planetenproblem.- 3 Das Zwei-Kugel-Universum im aristotelischen Denken.- 4 Der Wandel der Tradition: von Aristoteles zu Kopernikus.- 5 Kopernikus’ Neuerung.- 6 Die Assimilation der kopernikanischen Astronomie.- 7 Das neue Universum.- Technischer Anhang.- 1 Korrektur der Sonnenzeit.- 2 Das Vorrücken der Äquinoktien.- 3 Mondphasen und Verfinsterungen.- 4 Antike Messungen des Universums.- Anmerkungen.- Bibliographische Anmerkungen.

European Interuniversity Press Le Monde Du Théâtre- Édition 2011: Compte Rendu
Book SynopsisCet ouvrage intéressera l'amateur de théâtre à plus d'un titre. Il propose un panorama mondial à travers 51 articles traitant de deux saisons de théâtre. La singularité de cette forme mérite d'être soulignée. Chacun des pays représentés ici a confié à un spécialiste un regard analytique sur les saisons 20072008 et 20082009. Cela donne une juxtaposition d'approches qui, unies dans un objectif commun, gardent leurs spécificités. Ici, on met l'accent sur la perpétuation des traditions théâtrales, là, on est attentif aux signes d'ouverture aux aventures du théâtre international. Ici, on scrute les résistances que le théâtre peut opposer aux pouvoirs, là, on souligne l'intelligence de l'institution théâtrale et de l'État. Partout, on nous fait découvrir des formes, des pratiques et des répertoires qui retrouvent ainsi droit de cité à côté des artistes qui dominent les scènes internationales. De l'Allemagne à l'Ukraine, nous explorons la vie théâtrale dans son actualité avec ce léger recul qui permet de dégager quelques lignes de force. On pioche ainsi informations et détails insolites sur le travail des acteurs, les projets des metteurs en scène ou les goûts du public. C'est ainsi que nous portons un autre regard sur le théâtre dans le monde.

Information Age Publishing Utilizing Visual Representation in Educational
Book SynopsisThis edited volume focuses on visual and image-based methodologies that can be used to expand how educators approach, design, and innovate research for the purpose of informing and improving teaching and learning. Exploring how data can be utilized, collected, and rendered useful in the education arena is of utmost importance to those oriented towards utilizing research with the aim of improving educational practice. Innovative methodologies are important for preparing future researchers/scholars and teachers in developing and sustaining professional knowledge. To date, while visual methodologies are explored in various volumes related to general areas of social science, few texts exist where visual methodologies are explained or well-understood in the field of education, specifically.This work centers on the functions, cultures, and outcomes of teaching and learning using visual data (i.e., participant-generated drawings, photo-elicitation, film, etc.) and the methods that frame this approach. It is intended for teachers, researchers, and teacher-researchers - in higher education as well as at PK-12 levels – who are ready to engage with innovative, and often compelling, research methods that make data collection across data sources both accessible and equitable. This volume illustrates how various scholars have conceptualized, generated, and executed research utilizing visual data in their own schools, classrooms, and/or districts, and what they learned from these investigations.This edited volume is organized according to four main strands: Conducting research as visual endeavor: Assessing the nature of visual methodology, Conducting research as visual endeavor: Pedagogical innovation, What can visual data in educational research reveal: Student engagement, motivation, selfdetermination, metacognition, and mindfulness, and Conducting research as visual endeavor: Critical perspectives-critical exploration of issues in education and visual data's engagement with, and impact on, marginalized and/or disenfranchised participants.The chapters within each section, authored by established scholars in their fields of study, focus on some of today's key educational practices and the ways in which visual methodologies can provide innovation in the design of educational research. Each chapter within the volume reflects the importance of using credible, confirmable, reliable, and triangulated interpretations as a foundation for any claims, findings, or assertions related to pedagogical innovation, student mindfulness, and critical pedagogy. In summary, this edited volume is critically engaged, innovative, and contributes to advances in qualitative inquiry, visual research methodologies, and alternative ways of 'seeing' and 'knowing'.

Information Age Publishing Children With Learning Differences Exploring
Book SynopsisActively listening and building bridges among students, teachers, and communities provides learners with authentic opportunities to be involved, invested, and ignite meaningful change. This book celebrates students' first-tellings of their experiences as ""students with differences"" in schools. Throughout the authors' school experiences, they yearned for spaces to share their expertise, thoughts, ideas, talents, and aspirations. These authors emphasize the need to recognize student voice, which they contend, should permeate all levels of collaborative work in schools. These collaborations include, but are not limited to the integration of diverse assessments, differentiation, curriculum design, arts-based projects, inquiry, establishing school policies, and evaluating daily practices in schools.What students have to say matters. However, authors reiterate how often schools attempted to silence them, especially due to the label assigned to them: ""disabled."" How students learn matters. What students learn matters. Their untapped sense of wonderment plays a pertinent role in their growth and development. Together, these authors utilize artmaking to express how they navigate oppressive systems, such as school. They contend there is a need for K-12 students to co-create knowledge and build bridges among themselves, educators, families, and diverse communities. Their new ways of knowing through this artmaking process afforded them with a renewed relevance for learning and the need to promote authentic school reform. Bottom line: students matter. Their leadership, creativity, and capacity to think system-wide are essential to classroom, school, curriculum, and community needs. These young authors stress the need to continue this significant work and emphasize the power of student voice through artmaking.Trade ReviewThis book reveals the hidden curriculum behind how students negotiate school environments that are often indifferent or even hostile to them. It demonstrates their resilience, their perceptions and how experiences in the arts inspire them to overcome the school environment which has silenced or marginalized them. The stories in these pages will inspire you and reinforce your belief in the human spirit."" — Fenwick English, Florida Gulf Coast University
