‘Crazy Man-Killing Monsters’
(2023)
The Amazons have a long legacy in literature and the visual arts, extending from antiquity to the present day. Prior scholarship tends to treat the Amazons as hostile ‘Other’ figures, embodying the antithesis of Greco-Roman cultural norms. Recently, scholars have begun to examine positive portrayals of Amazons in contemporary media, as role models and heroic figures. However, there is a dearth of scholarship examining the Amazons’ inherently multifaceted nature, and their subsequent polarised reception in popular media.
This article builds upon the large body of scholarship on contemporary Amazon narratives, in which the figures of Wonder Woman and Xena, Warrior Princess dominate scholarly discourse. These ‘modern Amazon’ figures epitomise the dominant contemporary trend of portraying Amazons as strong female role models and feminist icons. To highlight the complexity of the Amazon image in contemporary media, this article examines the representation of the Amazons in the Supernatural episode ‘Slice Girls’ (S7 E13, 2012), where their portrayal as hostile, monstrous figures diverges greatly from the positive characterisation of Wonder Woman and Xena. I also consider the show’s engagement with ancient written sources, to examine how the writers draw upon the motifs of ancient Amazon narratives when crafting their unique Amazon characters. By contrasting the Amazons of ‘Slice Girls’ to contemporary figures and ancient narratives, this article examines how factors such as feminist ideology, narrative story arcs, characters’/audience’s perspectives and male bias shape the representation of Amazons post-antiquity.

“Creating a Maritime Future”
(2023)
This article explores the importance of the port city of Hamburg in the evolving discourses on the creation of a maritime future, a vision which became influential in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. While some Jewish representatives in the city aimed at preserving and intertwining Hanseatic and Jewish traditions in order to secure a Jewish presence in the port city under the pressure of the Nazi regime and thereafter, others wanted to create new emigration opportunities, especially to Mandatory Palestine, and create a Jewish maritime future in Eretz Israel. Different Zionist organizations supported the newly evolving maritime ideas, such as the “conquest of the sea”, and promoted the image of a Jewish seafaring nation. Despite the difficulties in the 1940s, these concepts gained influence post-1945 and led to the foundation of the fishery kibbutz “Zerubavel” in Blankenese/Hamburg. However, the idea of a Hanseatic Jewish future also remained influential and illustrates how differently a “Jewish maritime future” was imagined and used to link past, present and future.
“Israel am Meere”
(2023)
For Jews in Germany, the period following the Nazis’ rise to power in January 1933 was a period of decision-making on many levels: How should they respond to the persecution? If they decided to emigrate, many more decisions had to be made: How does one leave a country, and where should one go? A key moment in the process and in the cultural practice of emigration is the beginning of the sea voyage – when the need for departure and the hope for a new arrival jointly create a period of liminality. Looking at reports from sea voyages of exploration and emigration from the 1930s, this contribution discusses the question whether, and in what ways, such reflections can be read in the context of religious experiences and in the search for Jewish identities in times of turmoil.
“One video fit for all”
(2023)
Online learning in mathematics has always been challenging, especially for mathematics in STEM education. This paper presents how to make “one fit for all” lecture videos for mathematics in STEM education. In general, we do believe that there is no such thing as “one fit for all” video. The curriculum requires a high level of prior knowledge in mathematics from high school to get a good understanding, and the variation of prior knowledge levels among STEM education students is often high. This creates challenges for both online teaching and on-campus teaching. This article presents experimenting and researching on a video format where students can get a real-time feeling, and which fits their needs regarding their existing prior knowledge. They have the possibility to ask and receive answers during the video without having to feel that they must jump into different sources, which helps to reduce unnecessary distractions. The fundamental video format presented here is that of dynamic branching videos, which has to little degree been researched in education related studies. The reason might be that this field is quite new for higher education, and there is relatively high requirement on the video editing skills from the teachers’ side considering the platforms that are available so far. The videos are implemented for engineering students who take the Linear Algebra course at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in spring 2023. Feedback from the students gathered via anonymous surveys so far (N = 21) is very positive. With the high suitability for online teaching, this video format might lead the trend of online learning in the future. The design and implementation of dynamic videos in mathematics in higher education was presented for the first time at the EMOOCs conference 2023.
Reflexion wird in diesem Artikel als Rückmeldung (Feedback) zu einem Sprachlernstand begriffen. Es soll anhand eines Fallbeispiels (IRF-Sequenz) aus dem Unterricht Deutsch als Zweitsprache (DaZ) der Frage nachgegangen werden, wie sich die Feedback-Interaktion gestaltet und inwiefern sich ihr Gelingen oder Misslingen erklären lässt. Dazu wird die evidenzbasierte Forschung zum effektiven Feedback nach Hattie (u. a. Hattie 2020; Hattie & Zierer 2020; Wisniewski & Zierer 2018) in die Analyse einbezogen. Zu wissen, welche Wirkung Feedbacks erzielen, hilft (angehenden) Lehrer:innen, das eigene Handeln zu reflektieren.
In der Handschriftenabteilung der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin – Preußischer Kulturbesitz befindet sich das Manuskript einer Rezension von Humboldts Kosmos (Band 1), das der Berliner Pädagoge Karl Friedrich von Klöden kurz nach dem Erscheinen des Buches für die „Vossische Zeitung“ verfasste. Manuskript und gedruckter Text werden in dem folgenden Artikel reproduziert. Ihr Vergleich bietet die seltene Gelegenheit, die Entstehung eines Dokumentes zu verfolgen, das als ein Beispiel für die Humboldt-Rezeption im 19. Jahrhundert gelten kann.
Achtsames Erleben unterstützt die Reflexionsfähigkeit, wenn die Aufmerksamkeit entsprechend gelenkt und Raum und Zeit dafür zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Der Beitrag zeigt Achtsamkeit im Kontext der (beruflichen) Lehrkräftebildung als unterstützenden Faktor zur Entwicklung von Reflexionsfähigkeit. Insbesondere im Hinblick auf Selbstwahrnehmung und Beziehungsgestaltung bieten sich hier Potenziale, die der akademisch geprägten ersten Phase der Lehrkräftebildung noch immer weitgehend fremd geblieben sind. Es werden Einblicke in praktische Ansätze gegeben.
