Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Zusammenfassung aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Kindergarten, Vorschule, frühkindl. Erziehung, Note: 2,3, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena (Pädagogik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der Person Jean-Jacques Rousseau und seinem Werk ¿Emil oder Über die Erziehung¿. Sein Verdienst ist es unter anderem, im Gegensatz zur vorher herrschenden Erziehung, die Kindheit als eigene Lebensphase anzuerkennen und zu betrachten. Wir befinden uns in der Mitte des 18ten Jahrhunderts in Frankreich in der Zeit der Aufklärung. Rousseau gilt aufgrund seines Werkes bis heute als der 'Entdecker der Kindheit'. Er ruft als einer der ersten dazu auf, die Kindheit und ihre Bedürfnisse zu akzeptieren. Man soll den Zögling nicht als kleinen Erwachsenen betrachten, sondern als das, was er ist.Laut Rousseau ist es von Vorteil, die Erziehung des Kindes aufs Land zu verlegen und es fern von den Einflüssen der Stadt zu halten. Diese Hauptthese steht im Zentrum der Hausarbeit. Im Bezug darauf setzt sich die Arbeit zunächst näher mit der Erziehung Rousseaus, seiner Vorstellung von Natur und der natürlichen Erziehung auseinander. Spezifisch wird genauer erläutert, welche Vorteile das Heranwachsen des Kindes auf dem Land und welche Nachteile die Entwicklung dessen in der Stadt mit sich bringt.Zu Beginn der Arbeit wird zunächst der Erziehungsstil vor der Zeit Rousseaus genauer beleuchtet. Anschließend wird auf die Erziehung auf dem Land eingegangen, wobei zunächst Rousseaus Begriff von Natur und anschließend seine natürliche Erziehung erläutert werden. Danach werden spezifische Beispiele für die Vorteile der Erziehung auf dem Land anhand seines Werkes dargestellt sowie die Hauptthese begründet und mit Textbeispielen belegt. Anschließend werden gegenteilig die Nachteile vorgestellt, welche sich nach Rousseau aus einer Erziehung in der Stadt ergeben. Zum Schluss werden die wichtigsten Erkenntnisse zusammengefasst.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Psychologie - Intelligenz und Lernpsychologie, Note: 1,0, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, einen Überblick über die Entwicklung von Intelligenzmodellen und Methoden zur Intelligenzdiagnostik zu schaffen. Dies erfolgt anhand der Darstellung einiger Intelligenzmodelle, welche die Intelligenzforschung maßgeblich beeinflusst haben. Des Weiteren werden relevante Testmöglichkeiten zur Messung der menschlichen Intelligenz beschrieben.Seit den Anfängen der Psychologie zählt die menschliche Intelligenz zu den zentralen Forschungsfeldern. Die Entwicklung von Intelligenztheorien reicht bis in das frühe 20. Jahrhundert zurück und ist seither stetig vorangeschritten. Im Verlauf der vergangenen Jahrzehnte konnten zunehmend fortschrittliche Intelligenzmodelle entwickelt werden, welche fortwährend einen erheblichen Einfluss auf die Forschung und die Messung von Intelligenz nehmen. Inzwischen haben sich gefestigte Modelle der menschlichen Intelligenz in der Gesellschaft etabliert. Der aktuelle Erkenntnisstand legt nahe, dass sich der Intelligenzbegriff nicht nur auf einen Faktor zurückführen lässt, sondern mehrere Faktoren die intellektuellen Fähigkeiten festlegen.

Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Bonn (Institut für Anglistik, Amerikanistik und Keltologie), course: Postcolonial Literatures and Cultures, language: English, abstract: This paper is going to argue whether Achebe¿s novel ¿Things Fall Apart¿ illustrates an Ibo society with socially constructed gender roles. Male dominance and supremacy are visible throughout the whole novel, just as the subordination and discrimination of the female gender. Moreover, the novel depicts numerous gender stereotypes, which will be analysed in this paper to achieve a better understanding of the gender ideologies in Achebe¿s society. Strong gender roles can be seen in various situations in the life of Okonkwo, which is why this paper is going to be focussed on different aspects in the life of the protagonist of the novel. Beside the question whether ¿Things Fall Apart¿ portrays strong masculine dominance, the following questions will be answered: Are there differences in the various spaces regarding gender roles in the novel Is there an aspect in Ibös society in which the subordination of women is broken These questions allow the paper to take female rebellion into consideration and to keep the analysis open to a variety of readings of the novel without purely focussing on the reader¿s first impression of the dominance of manhood. 24 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, University of Bonn (Institut für Anglistik, Amerikanistik und Keltologie), course: Literatures and Cultures in Comparison, language: English, abstract: Ernest Hemingway¿s career as a writer grew during his years in Paris. The first chapters of this paper try to recapitulate the development of expatriation to Paris. What were the reasons for people, especially artists, to move to the European city and how did Hemingway himself find his way to Paris Furthermore, this paper wants to show how Hemingway represents the city in his writings. Three different genres will be discussed throughout the analysis to create a balanced overview of the representation of Paris. Hemingway¿s debut novel 'The Sun Also Rises' shows Paris in Hemingway¿s fiction. The author¿s memoir 'A Moveable Feast' offers a more psychological approach to Paris, whereas a selection of his articles for the Toronto 'Star' work as a realistic documentation of life in Paris. What are the differences of the portrayal of Paris in these genres Is his passion towards the city visible in every work This paper will also try to answer the question whether Hemingway represents the whole city of Paris or if the author emphasizes on the parts of Paris dominated by the American expatriates, which were mostly on the Left Bank of the Seine.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 24 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Bonn (Institut für Anglistik, Amerikanistik und Keltologie), course: English Medieval Studies, language: English, abstract: The Gawain-Poet introduces a mysterious and magical character in his poem ¿Sir Gawain and the Green Knight¿. The Green Knight is a dangerous and powerful character in the beginning of the plot. He sets the happenings in motion and is the reason for Gawain¿s journey. However, the Green Knight is uncovered to not be the main villain of the story. Therefore, there must be hints at his weakness and vulnerability throughout the plot, just as the depiction of magical elements. The same applies to the movie adaptation Sword of the Valiant directed by Stephen Weeks. Although Weeks¿ adaptation shows clear alterations to the poem, the beginning and the ending of the plots can still be compared. As for the beginning, in both versions the Green Knight enters the Arthurian court and explains his errand. Towards the end, both versions of Gawain find themselves in the Green Chapel. Thus, these two scenes are comparable. This paper aims at answering the question whether the representation of the Green Knight in the original poem corresponds to the movie Sword of the Valiant. Moreover, this paper is going to focus on the aspect of vulnerability and magical elements. Thus, the following questions will be answered: How is vulnerability portrayed in contrast to each other, and in how far is magic emphasized through the depiction of the Green Knight 20 pp. Englisch.

The Visegrad countries are Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia, together they found the Visegrad group alliance (V4) in 1991. Those eastern and central European countries joined their forces in order to push forward their aspirations for an EU accession.

Numerous interpretations on Shakespeare's plays claim that he had a misogynistic attitude since his plays mostly show how women are degraded by men and thus, lead to tragic consequences .However, in this essay, I rely on John Madden's film adaptation 'Shakespeare in Love' as it reveals numerous female characters who present a vision of social revolution through which they prove female agency during the Elizabethan period.The adaptation does not only prove that women were capable to speak for themselves and break down gender stereotypes, but also suggests that there is a possibility that Shakespeare wanted this issue to be resolved.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 16 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 1,0, University of Bonn (Institut für Anglistik, Amerikanistik und Keltologie), language: English, abstract: This term paper discussed the portrayal of conversion therapy in the book 'The Miseducation of Cameron Post' by Emily M. Danforth. Methods and effects of conversion therapy are covered and how those are visible in the book in various aspects. Furthermore, the protagonist is analysed as a survivor of conversion therapy. Throughout history, the opinion regarding members of the LGBTQ+-community has changed drastically. From accepting homosexuality as normal in ancient Greece to presenting homosexuality as a sin in medieval and still modern times. Nowadays an overall accepting and even supporting position for the community can be seen, but certain negative tendencies still exist.Those negative tendencies can be especially seen in the church and are often validated with religious arguments but naturally, not all tendencies can be noticed from religious institutions. Those tendencies differ in intensity; however, a certain number of individuals is feeling threatened by members of the LGBTQ+-community and desire to interfere in personal lives to change the homosexuality of a person. This is often done with conversion therapy. Conversion therapy is an issue that many people are unaware of but if they do know of it, people are commonly uncertain of what conversion therapy is like.Most information is gathered from media and books as in the book The Miseducation of Cameron Post. The teenage girl Cameron Post is sent to a conversion therapy camp to be cured of her homosexuality. Before and during her time in the camp, she writes down her experiences and her eventual escape. Since conversion therapy is not banned in all US states and considering that society only knows about conversion therapy through books and media, it is interesting to examine if the conversion therapy in 'The Miseducation of Cameron Post' is an accurate portrayal of conversion therapy in the United States in the 1990s.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2022 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg (Institut für Anglistik/Amerikanistik), course: Colonial Gothic, language: English, abstract: When Joseph Conrad published Heart of Darkness in 1899, he was probably not expecting that this story keeps so many critics busy for so many years, even after his death in 1924. A huge wave of critics and also defending scholarly journals and books occurred after 1975. In this year the Nigerian novelist Chinua Achebe accused Conrad of being a racist who portrays such a poor image of Africa as it can be seen as ¿the antithesis of Europe and therefore of civilization, a place where man¿s vaunted intelligence and refinement are finally mocked by triumphant bestiality¿ (Achebe). This triggered a wave of indignation and authors like Hunt Hawkins, Cedric Watts and Patrick Brantlinger who defended Conrad¿s work as a critic on imperialism in which Conrad presents the dreadful reality of colonialism in the Congo at a time in which xenophobia was the most popular understanding of racial differences. But as many authors have already recognized, the derogatory language, the focus on the outward appearance of blacks, and the use of confusing and definitely pejorative adjectives leaves an image of Africa that ¿can hardly be called flattering¿ (Hawkins). Unlike Chinua Achebe, who concentrated his critic on one specific work, Toni Morrison¿s critic in Playing in the Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination (1992) was addressed to many authors who included a real or fabricated Africanist presence in their work as a catalyst in the formation of American identity (cf. Morrison). Since it seems that nobody has aligned the representation of the black race in Heart of Darkness with Toni Morrison¿s work, I am trying to demonstrate that the Africanist presence was necessary for Joseph Conrad in order to hide his critical imperial stance in a way that it remains readable for the Victorian British audience. Since so many authors have already agreed to read Heart of Darkness as a critic on imperialism, I will not focus on demonstrating this critical stance. This is why I will analyze one paragraph in order to show how the racial superiority is conveyed in the story by constructing racial hierarchies before the general depictions of race in the Victorian British society is presented. In the end, I am trying to find signs of an Africanist presence, how Morrison defines it, in the story of Joseph Conrad and their impact on the protagonist and Kurtz. 20 pp. Englisch.

But does this atmosphere differ or does the soundtrack support the atmosphere of the novel completely To find an answer to these questions I will first prove the effect of music. Therefore, I will take a scene out of the movie and alter the music to create a different atmosphere and following, a different meaning. Next, I am going to analyse the introduction of the movie in respect of music. I will divide the beginning of the movie into two diverse parts. In the first one the music is played as background music and only subconsciously audible. In the second part it leads the action completely. Finally, an analysis of the beginning of the novel will be made. Here I am going to analyse the atmosphere chronologically and afterwards thematic with the help of an article by the famous writer Esther Newton. 20 pp. Englisch.

This paper will focus on why we use different terms synchronously to refer to one novel disease. Moreover, this paper will have a look at the differences between the words, in which context and how often they are used.After scanning previous literature concerning this topic, I was able to formulate two hypothesis.One: The different terms fit different academic levels and are used in distinctive situations. (e.g. 'Sars-CoV-2' main use in scientific fields, 'Rona' more informal in everyday expressions)Two: The shorter a word is, the more it is used to refer to the virus.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 16 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Agrarian Studies, grade: 5.00, Szent István University, language: English, abstract: The major objective of this study is to investigate factors that significantly affect agricultural productivity in Uganda. It entirely made use of secondary data from Uganda National Panel Survey (UNPS) for the 2013/2014 round, since it is the most recent wave available at the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS). Given the survey data, non-parametric methods were used in data analysis to answer the research hypotheses. This research narrows its focus on drivers of agricultural productivity which are connected to socio-economic characteristics of the household head, the agricultural practices followed by the household as well as the characteristics of the soil cultivated by the household. Research results are based on the answers of 2492 Ugandan households. Results from the model revealed that the Ugandan household¿s agricultural productivity is highly dependent on the gender and age of the household head. The agricultural productivity of households was found to be significantly higher in the Western than in the Eastern and Northern regions. The use of improved seeds and keeping improved breeds of animals was found to significantly affect agricultural productivity. Results also revealed that agricultural productivity is dependent on topography, land quality (as reported by respondents), soil type, and the use of extension services. Agriculture is key to Africäs future. The continent has the largest proportion of the world¿s arable land, with over half of its population employed in the sector, and also agriculture is the largest contributor to total gross domestic product (GDP). Yet, the same continent continues to produce very little food and low value-added products. Productivity has been stagnant since the 1980s (AGRA, 2018). In most developing countries' agriculture is the source of food for communities and a means of livelihood for the vulnerable people. Raising agricultural productivity is an important policy goal for concerned governments and development agencies. 20 pp. Englisch.

The theoretical background will go over the different definitions of 'bitch', explain what a slur reclamation is, and give a brief overview of the literature on the controversial use of the word. Then it will go into the methodology for acquiring data and move on to the data results and their analysis, discussing the following hypothesis about the semantic changes of 'bitch': 1. The upcoming use of 'bitch' as a derogatory led to an increased usage of the word. 2. Nowadays, 'bitch' is not used as a slur anymore, since women reclaimed it. ¿Fucking bitch¿. That is what the Republican Ted Yoho called the Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on the steps of the House of Representatives, which led to an epic speech on sexism and violence against women in language. But Meredith Brook's lyrics ¿I'm a bitch, I'm a lover - I'm a child, I'm a mother - I'm a sinner, I'm a saint - I do not feel ashamed¿ still echoes.

Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,3, University of Hagen, language: English, abstract: Increasing dynamicity of global business environment necessitates the adoption of boundary spanning in order for an organization to survive global competitiveness. This essay aims to identify personal characteristics that an invidividual should bring in order to realize a successful boundary spanner in a multinational team. In the study, it was noted that the task for boundary spanners is to bridge intergroup challenges facing organizations by establishing sharing ties between different groups in order to enable the flow of knowledge, information, resources and people. The boundary spanning activities thus enables an organization to achieve a common team spirit and hence ensures efficient and effective work flow. To effectively achieve boundary spanners¿ role, an individual should possess negotiation skills, mediation skills, assimilation skills, coaching and institutional engagement skills. The person should further possess personal qualities of imagination, empathy, optimism and modesty are more likely to be successful at acquiring the skill sets required for a successful boundary spanning. Tactics for boundary spanning leadership that needs to be considered for a successful boundary spanning include: boundary suspending, boundary reframing, boundary nesting, and weaving tactic. The leadership behaviour for boundary spanning should create and maintain favourable relationships with not only the peers but also with the superiors and outsiders who provide information, political support, and resources. The leaders need to be influential to get essential resources and support from key management. They need to have good negotiation skills. The leaders should further be sensitive to changes in the external environment by analysing information concerning relevant events and changes within the external surroundings of an organization. The study noted that one of the key sources of information exchange and communication is boundary spanners, which usually find much relevance in culturally distant marketplaces. However, one of the challenges is that their performance may be hard to measure, and the process may need much time and resources. At times, the boundary spanners from opposite ends may fail to reach a consensus after long time engagements in networking, external watching, and representing. 36 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Sozialpädagogik, Note: 1,3, Internationale Berufsakademie der F+U Unternehmensgruppe gGmbH, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Verschriftlichung möchte der Verfasser zunächst einen theoretischen Überblick über die Komplexität der Professionalität der sozialen Arbeit schaffen. Es wird vor allem auf Kompetenzen und Haltungen geblickt, welche für die Kinder- und Jugendhilfe relevant ist. Die soziale Arbeit fordert nicht nur professionelles Handeln, ebenso existieren Handlungsantinomien, welche die Arbeit von Akteuren erschwert. Der Begriff einer ¿Handlungsantinomie¿ wird in dieser Arbeit erörtert. Eines der größten Widersprüche sind ¿Nähe¿ und ¿Distanz¿ ¿ Akteure müssen in ihrer Arbeit, Beziehungen zu ihren Klienten schaffen, allerdings auch eine professionelle Distanz wahren. Was so simpel klingt, stellt sich in der Praxis als komplexer dar, aus diesem Grund werden die zwei Pole ¿Distanz¿ und ¿Nähe¿ erläutert.Nach Beendigung des theoretischen Überblicks, fokussiert sich die diese Arbeit auf die Praxis des Verfassers. Die eigene Praxisstelle ist eine vollstationäre Kinder -und Jugendhilfeeinrichtung, welche primär Kinder und Jugendhilfe betreut, welche nach SGB VIII 35a untergebracht sind. Hinter diesem herausforderndem Klientel verbergen sich umfassende Störungsbilder. Die Kinder und Jugendlichen beschreiten ihr Leben mit einem komplexen Trauma, deshalb wird der Autor einen kleinen Überblick die Thematik des Traumas einbauen. So sind die Mitarbeiter\*innen täglich dazu angehalten ihr pädagogisches Handeln zu reflektieren und ggf. neu zu justieren. In diesem Kontext entstehen Handlungsantinomien, welche durch das Team erkannt und gelöst werden müssen.Der Ausblick dieser Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Lösungen, um sich seiner Professionalität bewusst zu werden und Handlungsantinomien zu lösen.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2022 im Fachbereich Weltgeschichte - Frühgeschichte, Antike, Universität Potsdam (Historisches Institut), Veranstaltung: Perserkriege, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nach anfänglichen Schwierigkeiten und der finalen Intervention durch die Masse des Volkes gelang es Kleisthenes letzten Endes, die Führung über Athen zu gewinnen und seine Reformen durchzusetzen. Doch was hat es mit den Reformen auf sich, um welche Reformen handelt es sich überhaupt Schwerpunktartig wird es in dieser Hausarbeit darum gehen, was das Werk 'Athenaion politeia' über Kleisthenes berichtet. Denn die Athenaion politeia bilden den Ausgangspunkt für die Problematik, was Kleisthenes erreichen wollte und was er erreichen konnte. Der Verfasser dieses Werk scheint Aristoteles bzw. ein Schüler von Aristoteles zu sein, was aber bislang noch umstritten ist.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, University of Ibadan, language: English, abstract: The fast pace of the growth of globalization, the global crisis, and social movements of recent years which have been connected to racial injustice, as well as increasing expectations of ethical practices by businesses from prospective employees, customers, and the society at large, have all made the issue of diversity, equity, and inclusion a top business priority for organizations. DEI initiatives are going beyond the ¿nice to have¿ policies and statements as it were due to increasing pressures on organizations to practice what they preach, and upon the realization that it may be linked to financial outperformance.The paper examines various practicable guides that organizations across the world can adopt in striving to advance DEI initiatives through a review of secondary data sourced from published best practices, blog articles, and research articles. 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Politics - Political Theory and the History of Ideas Journal, grade: 2,0, University of Frankfurt (Main), language: English, abstract: This paper examines what different philosophical approaches towards Territorial Rights of states can tell us about the founding and being of the State of Israel. Some might say that international law already holds the answers for most of the unsolved issues in this context and that it is solely a problem of non-implementation of this law that keeps the conflict going. On this point I clearly oppose. I argue that first international law is not as clear on the subject as some might argue, second that for this reason the sole reference to international law has not contributed essentially to a solution of the conflict within the recent years and third that many of the legal aspects oppose perceptions of justice for both sides involved. Therefore, I believe that taking a close look at the issue using theoretical perspectives of some of the most prestigious thinkers of the past centuries can positively contribute to the debate surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The findings of this paper and their normative aspects hold political implications that provide a deeper understanding for the possibilities of a just peace between the parties involved. In the first section of my paper, I will take a look at the legal aspects of territory in general and the case of Israel in particular. In this context I will also examine the historical dimensions that play a role in our case. Rejecting the idea that the reference to legal implications hold the components for a just peace, I then turn to the theoretical approaches towards the question of territorial rights. In this context, I will engage different schools of thought, including their most important authors, that consider the normative foundations of a.) the rights of states to rule over territory and b.) the rights of a particular state to rule over a particular territory. These theoretical approaches are first Lockean approaches towards territorial rights which derive territorial rights from property rights of individuals/collectives and their consent to pass over these rights to a state and secondly, nationalist approaches that focus on the nation as the subject of territorial rights and emphasize its¿ historical connection to particular. Finally, I will examine what each of the theoretical approaches can tell us about the key territorial questions associated with the founding and the being of the State of Israel or about relevant territorial aspects surrounding the conflict.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 28 pp. Englisch.
