Therefore, an on-campus seminar designed to relate theory to practice and vice versa - the so-called 'Lehr-Lern-Labor-Seminar (LLLS)' - was implemented over the course of five terms to stimulate reflective skills of English and Physics teacher trainees. Investigations on the effectiveness of three types of the LLLS (no video and two types of video-supported reflections) compared to a parallel group (PG) and a control group (CG) occurred in a mixed methods quasi-experimental study. Reflective skills were elicited with vignettes, relevant covariates with questionnaires. Reflective development was then traced in the dimensions depth and breadth employing a qualitative content analysis. MANCOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Covariance) and regression analyses revealed a substantive increase of reflective depth for English and Physics teacher trainees and breadth development for English LLLS-participants in contrast to both, a PG and a CG, even when controlling for the subjects' individual prerequisites.}, language = {en} } @article{GrosseBoeltingScheppachMuehling2023, author = {Große-B{\"o}lting, Gregor and Scheppach, Lukas and M{\"u}hling, Andreas}, title = {The Place of Ethics in Computer Science Education}, series = {Hochschuldidaktik Informatik HDI 2021 (Commentarii informaticae didacticae)}, journal = {Hochschuldidaktik Informatik HDI 2021 (Commentarii informaticae didacticae)}, number = {13}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-548-4}, issn = {1868-0844}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-61598}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-615982}, pages = {173 -- 187}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Ethical issues surrounding modern computing technologies play an increasingly important role in the public debate.

Diversity concerns may relate to unequal participation, knowledge and methodology, curricula, institutional planning etc. For a lot of these areas, measures, guidelines and best practices on diversity awareness exist.

In this paper I explore what working with diversity and gender concepts in informatics entails, what the main challenges are and provide thoughts for improvement. The paper includes definitions of diversity and intersectionality, reflections on the disciplinary basis of informatics and practical implications of integrating diversity in informatics research and development. In the final part, two concepts from the social sciences and the humanities, the notion of "third space"/hybridity and the notion of "feminist ethics of care", serve as a lens to foster more sustainable ways of working with diversity in informatics.}, language = {en} } @techreport{GraeberHilbertKoenig2023, type = {Working Paper}, author = {Graeber, Daniel and Hilbert, Viola and K{\"o}nig, Johannes}, title = {Inequality of Opportunity in Wealth}, series = {CEPA Discussion Papers}, journal = {CEPA Discussion Papers}, number = {69}, issn = {2628-653X}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-60967}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-609673}, pages = {54}, year = {2023}, abstract = {While inequality of opportunity (IOp) in earnings is well studied, the literature on IOp in individual net wealth is scarce to non-existent. This is problematic because both theoretical and empirical evidence show that the position in the wealth and income distribution can significantly diverge.We measure ex-ante IOp in net wealth for Germany using data from the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). Ex-ante IOp is defined as the contribution of circumstances to the inequality in net wealth before effort is exerted. The SOEP allows for a direct mapping from individual circumstances to individual net wealth and for a detailed decomposition of net wealth inequality into a variety of circumstances; among them childhood background, intergenerational transfers, and regional characteristics. The ratio of inequality of opportunity to total inequality is stable from 2002 to 2019. This is in sharp contrast to labor earnings, where ex-ante IOp is declining over time. Our estimates suggest that about 62\% of the inequality in net wealth is due to circumstances. The most important circumstances are intergenerational transfers, parental occupation, and the region of birth. In contrast, gender and individuals' own education are the most important circumstances for earnings.}, language = {en} } @article{Kainz2023, author = {Kainz, Fritz}, title = {Extraterritorial Constitutional Rights}, series = {MenschenRechtsMagazin}, volume = {28}, journal = {MenschenRechtsMagazin}, number = {2}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {2941-1149}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-60996}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-609962}, pages = {140 -- 150}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Im Laufe der vergangenen Jahrzehnte widmeten Lehre und Rechtsprechung der extraterritorialen Anwendbarkeit von Menschenrechtsabkommen erhebliche Aufmerksamkeit. Im Gegensatz fand die extraterritoriale Anwendung verfassungsgesetzlich verankerter Grundrechte nur in den Vereinigten Staaten vergleichbares akademisches Interesse. Insbesondere l{\"a}sst sich ein Mangel an vergleichender Forschung in diesem Bereich feststellen, was zur herrschenden Meinung beitr{\"a}gt, dass internationale Menschenrechtskonventionen den geeigneten Rahmen bieten, unter dem inl{\"a}ndische Gerichte extraterritoriale Fragen des Verfassungsrechts pr{\"u}fen sollten. Dieser Artikel argumentiert, dass inl{\"a}ndische verfassungsrechtliche Regelungen und die zu ihrer Durchsetzung zust{\"a}ndigen Gerichte ein wichtiges Gegengewicht in der festgefahrenen internationalen Extraterritorialit{\"a}tsdebatte spielen sollten. Anhand zweier Fallstudien aus Deutschland und den Vereinigten Staaten wird gezeigt, dass inl{\"a}ndische Verfassungsgerichte manchmal besser geeignet sind als Vertragsorgane, um die Grundwerte der Menschenw{\"u}rde und der Universalit{\"a}t im extraterritorialen Kontext zu wahren. Dies zeigt sich besonders deutlich am Beispiel Deutschlands, das {\"u}ber eine lange Tradition der Integration in internationale Mehrebenensysteme und des grundrechtliche "Bottom-up"-Widerstands innerhalb solcher Systeme verf{\"u}gt. Aktuelle F{\"a}lle des Bundesverfassungsgerichts zur extraterritorialen Anwendung des Grundgesetzes auf ausl{\"a}ndische nachrichtendienstliche Aktivit{\"a}ten und Klimawandel unterst{\"u}tzen diese Theorie. Allerdings kann ein unabh{\"a}ngiger verfassungsrechtlicher Ansatz auch in solchen nationalen Systemen eigenst{\"a}ndige normative Effekte erzielen, welche st{\"a}rker vom internationalen Menschenrechtssystem isoliert sind. So verwendete auch der amerikanische Oberste Gerichtshof (Supreme Court) die inl{\"a}ndische verfassungsrechtliche Doktrin, um die streng territoriale Auslegung des Internationalen Pakts {\"u}ber b{\"u}rgerliche und politische Rechte durch die amerikanische Regierung zu umgehen und einen funktionalen Ansatz f{\"u}r die extraterritoriale Anwendbarkeit von Grundrechten im Fall der Inhaftierung mutmaßlicher Terroristen im Marinest{\"u}tzpunkt von Guant{\´a}namo Bay zu nutzen. Die Untersuchung dieser Beispiele beansprucht nicht, umfassend oder repr{\"a}sentativ die vielf{\"a}ltigen Verfassungen der Welt und ihre Beziehungen zu v{\"o}lkerrechtlichen Menschenrechtsnormen zu untersuchen. Dennoch sollte die unabh{\"a}ngige Wirkung von verfassungsrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen in diesen beiden disparaten F{\"a}llen umso mehr Anreiz f{\"u}r eine verst{\"a}rkte vergleichende Forschung zu verfassungsrechtlichen Extraterritorialit{\"a}tsregimen und ihrem Beitrag zum Projekt der Menschenrechte bieten.}, language = {en} } @misc{Ginsburg2023, author = {Ginsburg, Shai}, title = {Marina Zilbergerts, The Yeshiva and the Rise of Modern Hebrew Literature (Bloomington, In: Indiana University Press, 2022), 184 pp., \$ 35.00}, series = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, journal = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, number = {28}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-552-1}, issn = {1614-6492}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-58598}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-585985}, pages = {143 -- 147}, year = {2023}, language = {en} }
