This book was released on 2015 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Projekt wurde im Kooperationsverbund vom Center for Environmental Systems Research (CESR) der Universität Kassel und dem Kulturwissenschaftlichen Institut Essen (KWI) der Universität Duisburg‐Essen durchgeführt. Das Teilprojekt „Bedingungen erfolgreicher sozio‐technischer Wandlungen“ am KWI fokussierte auf die Entstehungs- und Etablierungsphasen von innovativen Akteuren im Bereich regenerative Energie. Konkret beruhen diese Ergebnisse auf Fallstudien dreier Unternehmen, die bis heute erfolgreich agieren: Den Elektrizitätswerken Schönau (EWS), ein mittlerweile bundesweit etablierter Ökostromanbieter in Deutschland, Solarcomplex als ein regional aktives Bürgerunternehmen sowie eine lokal agierende Bürgerinitiative in Hagen-Berchum (Berchumer Initiative für Solarenergie, BINSE). Hier wurden mit qualitativen Methoden Materialrecherchen, explorative Einzelinterviews und Gruppendiskussionen durchgeführt, überwiegend mit den Innovationspionieren und deren frühen Mitstreitern, aber auch mit Experten und Adoptern. Ziel dieser Untersuchung war es, einen vertieften Einblick in die Genese und Ausbreitung der Initiativen zu erhalten, besonders innovations- und diffusionsfördernde sowie -hemmende Faktoren zu identifizieren. Die Ergebnisse des Teilprojektes „Quantitative Erhebung und Modellierung“ am Center for Environmental Systems Research (CESR) der Universität Kassel beruhen einerseits auf einer umfassenden Fragebogenerhebung zur Nutzung von Ökostrom und der Beteiligung an Bürgersolaranlagen. Der Schwerpunkt lag hier vor allem auf Wahrnehmung und Bewertung der Innovationen in unterschiedlichen gesellschaftlichen, durch ihre Lebensstile definierten Gruppen. Mittels einer agentenbasierten Modellierung und Simulation wurde anhand von möglichen Ausbreitungsszenarien die Dynamik des Wandels sichtbar gemacht und einer Analyse zugeführt. Auf der Basis eines psychologischen Modells, Vorarbeiten (u.a. Schwarz & Ernst, 2009), Lebensstilanalysen sowie netzwerktheoretischen Überlegungen wurden zunächst retrodiktive Simulationen durchgeführt und mit historischen Daten abgeglichen, um Annahmen über Einflussfaktoren einer Prüfung zu unterziehen und das Modell zu verbessern. Die Simulation prospektiver Szenarien wiederum diente dazu, mögliche Fördermaßnahmen in ihrer Wirkung und dynamischen Interaktion mit anderen Faktoren zu beleuchten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main idea of this book is that to comprehend the instructional potential of simulation and to design effective simulation-based learning environments, one has to consider both what happens inside the computer and inside the students' minds. The framework adopted to do this is model-centered learning, in which simulation is seen as particularly effective when learning requires a restructuring of the individual mental models of the students, as in conceptual change. Mental models are by themeselves simulations, and thus simulation models can extend our biological capacity to carry out simulative reasoning. For this reason, recent approaches in cognitive science like embodied cognition and the extended mind hypothesis are also considered in the book.. A conceptual model called the “epistemic simulation cycle” is proposed as a blueprint for the comprehension of the cognitive activies involved in simulation-based learning and for instructional design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For several years now, the demand for increased impact orientation has also affected the field of Global Education (GE) / Development Education and Awareness Raising (DEAR). In this context, a vivid discussion is still ongoing regarding what can be considered an ›impact‹ in GE/DEAR and how these impacts can be analysed. Both questions are dealt with within the scope of the research project ›Impacts and methods of impact monitoring in development education and awareness raising‹, which was financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and which is to be presented in this volume. Against the backdrop of the empirical findings of this research project, this publication shows which effects can be targeted in the planning and evaluation of GE-/DEAR-projects and which contextual conditions can influence their effectiveness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important consideration for energy-efficient buildings is their primary energy requirements over the entire life cycle. How to determine this? What integrative factors influence the performance of a healthy and sustainable building? This, while it may be important for clients and architects to know, is frequently not very transparent. This book has been written to assist with clarifying target criteria and expanding horizons when it comes to ecological buildings. It is meant as a handbook and source of reference for clients, architects, planners and building operators, to provide them with pertinent information about their design, construction and operation: how to do this in the most energy-efficient and economical manner? Also, there is feedback and documentation about prominent buildings like the Hamburg Dockland or the Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg in Stuttgart. They provide excellent architectural examples for detailed construction and design solutions. Further, there are insightful interviews with architects and clients about many important buildings, which help turn this book into an integrated source of reference for sustainable architecture. - A Guideline for Planning, Construction and Operation of sustainable Buildings - A source of reference for clients, architects, planners and building operators - Innovative architectural examples with sustainable concepts and design

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The different research fields – gerontology, gender and health – have generated different views, knowledge and foci on ageing, health and gender. It is now necessary to integrate these aspects into research, policy and practice. The objective of this book is to provide an overview of gender, health and ageing. Important theoretical concepts, such as life course and "Lebenslagen" in old age, or differences in men's health, are introduced. It is increasingly important to build a European basis of knowledge, to conduct discussions on European research findings, and to develop European research frameworks. In this volume, central theoretical debates on gender impacts on life course and old-age health, and vital issues of health research in the context of gender and old age are introduced. Specific aspects, such as the impact of gender and age on cardiovascular health, elder abuse and mental health, or care between gender relations, gender roles and gender constructs, are pointed out. Special attention is given to the impact of social, political and economic change in different New EU Member States, like Hungary, Poland and Slovenia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the exception of written letters and personal conversations, digital technology forms the basis of nearly every means of communication and information that we use today. It is also used to control the essential elements of economic, scientific, and public and private life: security, production, mobility, media, and healthcare. Without exaggerating it is possible to say that digital technology has become one of the foundations of our technologically oriented civilization. The benefits of modern data technology are so impressive and the potential for future applications so enormous that we cannot fail to promote its development if we are to retain our leading role in the competitive international marketplace. In this process, security plays a vital role in each of the areas of application of digital technology — the more technological sectors are entrusted to data systems technology, the more important their reliability becomes to us. Developing digital systems further while simultaneously ensuring that they always act and respond in the best interests of people is a central goal of the technological research and development propagated and conducted by Fraunhofer.

Download or read book Age-Differentiated Work Systems written by Christopher Marc Schlick and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The disproportionate aging of the population of working age in many nations around the world is a unique occurrence in the history of humankind. In the light of demographic change, it is becoming increasingly important to develop and use the potential of older employees. This edited volume Age-differentiated Work Systems provides a final report on a six-year priority program funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and presents selected research findings of 17 interdisciplinary project teams. The idea is that it will serve both as a reference book and overview of the current state of research in ergonomics, occupational psychology and related disciplines. It provides new models, methods, and procedures for analyzing and designing age-differentiated work systems with the aim of supporting subject matter experts from different areas in their decisions on labor and employment policies. Therefore over 40 laboratory experiments involving 2,000 participants and 50 field studies involving over 25,000 employees were conducted. Further objectives of the edited volume were to provide a pluridisciplinary compilation of the extensive information acquired over the six-year program period, to illustrate the range of the research field, and to convey an integrated understanding of age-differentiated work systems to readers.
