This book offers a comprehensive guide, covering every important aspect of computational thinking education. It provides an in-depth discussion of computational thinking, including the notion of perceiving computational thinking practices as ways of mapping models from the abstraction of data and process structures to natural phenomena. Further, it explores how computational thinking education is implemented in different regions, and how computational thinking is being integrated into subject learning in K-12 education. In closing, it discusses computational thinking from the perspective of STEM education, the use of video games to teach computational thinking, and how computational thinking is helping to transform the quality of the workforce in the textile and apparel industry.

Imke Buß weist in ihrem Open-Access-Buch nach, dass Hochschulen durch die strategische Gestaltung ihrer Studienstrukturen die Vereinbarkeit von Studium, Familie und Beruf ermöglichen können. Die Autorin entwickelt ein empirisch geprüftes Modell struktureller Studierbarkeit, welches die Bedürfnisse einer diversen Studierendenschaft berücksichtigt. Die Gemeinsamkeiten, welche Studierende mit Sorgeaufgaben, Erwerbstätigkeit und Behinderung eint, sind insbesondere deren zeitliche Restriktionen. Das Modell ist als Steuerungsinstrument für ein selbstbestimmtes Qualitätsmanagement an Hochschulen geeignet. Die Arbeit bietet darüber hinaus Empfehlungen für die Gestaltung von Studienstrukturen, u.a. zu E-Learning, Veranstaltungszeiten, SWS und Teilzeitstudium.
Der Inhalt
• Index zeitlicher Restriktionen
• Studierbarkeit: Einflussfaktoren, Lernverhalten und Ergebnisse
• Lernorte und Lernzeit
• Inhaltliche Varietät und Autonomie: Wahlmöglichkeiten
• Studiengangsentwicklung und Akkreditierung
Die Zielgruppen
• Forschende und Studierende aus der Hochschul- und Studierendenforschung
• Mitarbeitende in Qualitätsmanagement, Evaluation und Studiengangsmanagement,
Hochschulleitungen

Dr. Imke Buß leitet die Abteilung Studium und Lehre an der HWG Ludwigshafen. Sie promovierte an der Universität Magdeburg und forscht zu Studierbarkeit und Diversity Management.
This open access book, inspired by the ICME 13 Thematic Afternoon on “European Didactic Traditions”, takes readers on a journey with mathematics education researchers, developers and educators in eighteen countries, who reflect on their experiences with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), the domain-specific instruction theory for mathematics education developed in the Netherlands since the late 1960s. Authors from outside the Netherlands discuss what aspects of RME appeal to them, their criticisms of RME and their past and current RME-based projects.
It is clear that a particular approach to mathematics education cannot simply be transplanted to another country. As such, in eighteen chapters the authors describe how they have adapted RME to their individual circumstances and view on mathematics education, and tell their personal stories about how RME has influenced their thinking on mathematics education.

“Italiano con l'immaginario” introduce un approccio di insegnamento umanistico delle lingue poco conosciuto in Italia e mutuato dalla tradizione didattica francese. La “simulation globale” diventa un corso di lingua in cui, invece di svolgere tante attività staccate e utilizzare un manuale standard, è possibile impostare un percorso in cui tutto sia collegato da un filo narrativo e la produzione orale e scritta di un vasto numero di testi avvenga all'interno di una situazione-cornice molto motivante.

This book describes the history, structure and institutions of open and distance education in six countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Germany, the UK and the US. It discusses how open and distance education is evolving in a digital age to reflect the needs and circumstances of national higher education systems in these countries, and explores the similarities and differences between the ways in which they are organized and structured. It is the first book to make such comparisons and draw conclusions about the nature of open and distance education in the context of various national higher education systems. In a digital era with growing use of online education as well as open and distance education, this book is particularly useful for policy-makers and senior administrators who want to learn about organizing and expanding open and distance education provision. It is also a valuable reference for researchers, academics and students interested in understanding the different approaches to open and distance education.
