Content: Introduction: Do the Arts Really Matter? Aesthetic Cognition and Human Development The Significance of Arts in Everyday Life: Evidence from Case StudiesArts and Quality of Experience: A Systematic Analysis The Conditions of Optimal Experience The Representation of Experience in Personality Consequences for Teaching the Arts
Im Aufsatz wird die These erörtert, dass Bildung auch im Zeitalter wissenschaftlich-technischer Revolutionen zuvörderst "Befähigung zur Freiheit" ist. Ausgehend von Kant und Hegel, Marx, Liebknecht, Gramsci und Duncker wird das "Prinzip Freiheit" zerfällt in das "Prinzip des Selbst", das "Prinzip der Kompetenz", das "Prinzip der Antizipation" und das "Prinzip der Partizipation", deren Synthese wiederum in das "Prinzip der Humanität" mündet. Der philosophische Ansatz verweist auf eine Reformbedürftigkeit sozialistischer Bildung unter den Bedingungen des wissenschaftlich-technischen Fortschritts.
Scholars have long recognised the importance of contexts of reception in shaping the integration of immigrants and refugees in a host society. Studies of refugees, in particular, have examined groups where the different dimensions of reception (government, labour market, and ethnic community) have been largely positive. How important is this merging of positive contexts across dimensions of reception? We address this through a comparative study of Vietnamese refugees to West Germany beginning in 1979 and contract workers to East Germany beginning in 1980. These two migration streams converged when Germany reunified in 1990. Drawing on mixed qualitative methods, this paper offers a strategic case for understanding factors that shape the resettlement experiences of Vietnamese refugees and immigrants in Germany. By comparing two migration streams from the same country of origin, but with different backgrounds and contexts of reception, we suggest that ethnic networks may, in time, offset the disadvantages of a negative government reception.
Ein Recht gegen das Recht
(2022)
Ausgehend von Andreas Arndt Buch "Die Reformation der Revolution. Friedrich Schleiermacher in seiner Zeit" wird die Bedeutung der von Schleiermacher konzipierten Dialektik für dessen praktisches Wirken erörtert. Mit der Dialektik stieß er eine Revolutionierung von Mathematik und Logik durch die Gebrüder Graßmann an. Mit seinem Engagement im Rahmen der Humboldtschen Bildungsreform hatte er einen wesentlichen Anteil an der inhaltlichen Neugestaltung der Elementar- und Volksschulbildung. Schleiermachers philosophischer Impuls griff dergestalt - in wohl historisch einmaliger Weise - von der Elementarschulbildung auf die Wissenschaft, insbesondere Mathematik, über.
Recent research related to the concept of interest is reviewed. It is argued that current constructs of motivation fail to include crucial aspects of the meaning of interest emphasized by classical American and German educational theorists. In contrast with many contemporary concepts (e.g., intrinsic learning orientation), interest is defined as a content-specific motivational characteristic composed of intrinsic feeling-related and value-related valences. Results from a number of studies are presented that indicate the importance of interest for the depth of text comprehension, the use of learning strategies, and the quality of the emotional experience while learning. The implications of these results and possible directions for future research are discussed.
Kommunikative Vernunft
(2016)
Jürgen Habermas explicates the concept of communicative reason. He explains the key assumptions of the philosophy of language and social theory associated with this concept. Also discussed is the category of life-world and the role of the body-mind difference for the consciousness of exclusivity in our access to subjective experience. as well as the role of emotions and perceptions in the context of a theory of communicative action. The question of the redemption of the various validity claims as they are associated with the performance of speech acts is related to processes of social learning and to the role of negative experiences. Finally the interview deals with the relationship between religion and reason and the importance of religion in modern, post-secular societies. Questions about the philosophical culture of our present times are discussed at the end of the conversation.
Kritische Anthropologie?
(2016)
This article compares Max Horkheimer’s and Theodor W. Adorno’s foundation of the Frankfurt Critical Theory with Helmuth Plessner’s foundation of Philosophical Anthropology. While Horkheimer’s and Plessner’s paradigms are mutually incompatible, Adorno’s „negative dialectics“ and Plessner’s „negative anthropology“ (G. Gamm) can be seen as complementing one another. Jürgen Habermas at one point sketched a complementary relationship between his own publicly communicative theory of modern society and Plessner’s philosophy of nature and human expressivity, and though he then came to doubt this, he later reaffirmed it. Faced with the „life power“ in „high capitalism“ (Plessner), the ambitions for a public democracy in a pluralistic society have to be broadened from an argumentative focus (Habermas) to include the human condition and the expressive modes of our experience as essentially embodied persons. The article discusses some possible aspects of this complementarity under the title of a „critical anthropology“ (H. Schnädelbach)
This article presents results from a meta-analysis of studies on the relation between subject-matter-related interest and school achievement. For the time period between 1965 and 1990 a total of 21 studies reporting 127 independent correlations (i. e., correlations based on independent samples) were identified. For the overall relation between interestand achievement a mean correlation of .30 was found. Male students exhibited significantly higher interest-achievement correlations than female students. In addition, significant differences among school subjects were observed. Grade level, however, did not produce a significant moderator effect. Finally, the results are discussed on the basis of theories of interest and methodological considerations.
