An Fallbeispielen zeigt der Autor auf, wie Wissenschaft die Praxis von Lehrkräften der Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung unterstützen kann. Wissenschaft für Praxis zu nutzen, ist kein Wert an sich, sondern Ausdruck der Verantwortung von Lehrenden für das Lernen der Teilnehmenden.

Didactical shift of epoch?

Their digitization leads to the autonomization of presentational control and management practices, which operate without organizations as …

This report indicates methods of controlling learning-effective decisions without limiting the ra…

Learning is thereby not composed as a dependent variable of teaching, but as subjective justified acting, that is based on interests, needs and sensitivities which are developed by the learners against the background of societal significance constella…
Der REPORT vermittelt einen Überblick zur wissenschaftlichen Forschung und Theoriebildung in der Erwachsenenbildung. Jedes Heft behandelt ein Schwerpunktthema und enthält einen umfangreichen Rezensionsteil.

Der REPORT 43 bemüht sich um eine Zwischenbilanz der Qualitätsdiskussion, insbesondere der (erwachsenen-)pädagogischen. Die Beiträge zeigen, dass Qualität von Bildungsarbeit "relational" zu denken, d. h. dass Qualität situations-, zielgruppen-, kontext- und beobachtungsabhängig ist.
