Mit diesem Heft möchten wir dazu beitragen, dass Kinder Begeisterung, Verständnis und ein positives Gefühl für unser natürliches Umfeld entwickeln können und einen spielerischen Zugang zu (wissenschaftlichen) Fakten fnden. Es erwarten Sie detailliert ausgearbeitete Konzepte zur Vermittlung wesentlicher Inhalte des naturkundlichen Unterrichts, wie Wald, Waldrand, Wiese, Wasser und Boden – orientiert an den Inhalten des Heimat- und Sachkundeunterrichts des Sächsischen Lehrplans für Grundschulen (Stand 2009).

This paper will dive into the topic of fitspiration on SNS and the effects it has on people’s subjective well-being. Fitspiration is a common type of content that is widely spread across multiple platforms, especially on Instagram. This content is often posted by fit people that share content regarding exercising or diets. Previous research has demonstrated that people have an inner desire to compare themselves to others on SNS which might have effects on people’s well-being. Therefore, this paper aims to find out how users perceive fitspiration on SNS as well as the perceived influence it has on their subjective well-being when comparing themselves to others. By using a qualitative approach where focus groups were conducted, empirical data was collected which could provide a deep understanding of the topic. The findings could conclude that fitspiration was perceived as unrealistic and exposing users to body ideals and unachievable perfection. Regarding effects on the user's subjective well-being, fitspiration has both positive and negative outcomes. The positive outcomes were especially associated with inspiration, while the negative effects were predominantly related to body image and self-esteem. The reason why they would be affected negatively or positively, would depend on to whom they would compare, how they were feeling at that specific time or if they would compare their appearance or their performance. Future research could look at different types and features of fitspiration content, how people engage with it and why, to see if it would affect user’s perceived well-being in different ways. Moreover, this paper confirms that fitspiration might promote negative experiences for users, why future studies could investigate how these experiences could be prevented or decreased.

Co-tutelle avec l'Université Paris-Nanterre / La pratique de la divination en Grèce ancienne est un phénomène bien connu du grand public, qui l’associe au personnage emblématique de la Pythie de Delphes. Inspirée par Apollon, cette prophétesse délivrait ses oracles en répondant aux questions que lui posaient les fidèles et l’on trouve dans de nombreux textes anciens le déroulement des consultations du dieu résumé sous la forme de deux affirmations complémentaires : « le fidèle a demandé » et « le dieu a répondu ». Pourtant, on ne saurait réduire la pratique divinatoire qui prenait place dans les sanctuaires oraculaires à un tête-à-tête entre deux personnes. Loin de se limiter à un agent inspiré, le personnel sacerdotal des sanctuaires oraculaires était nombreux et se trouvait mobilisé dans des rites complexes pour permettre de mettre en communication le monde des hommes avec celui des dieux. C’est à la diversité de ces agents et à la manière dont leurs interactions permettaient qu’advienne la parole divine qu’est consacré ce travail. Dans une première partie, sont étudiés les agents qui participaient aux rites mantiques des sept sanctuaires oraculaires les mieux attestés du monde grec aux époques hellénistique et romaine : celui de Zeus à Dodone, d’Apollon à Didymes, Claros et Delphes, celui de Trophonios à Lébadée, d’Amphiaraos à Oropos et de Glykon à Abonoteichos. Chaque sanctuaire est l’objet d’un chapitre dans lequel sont considérés, un à un, tous les agents, humains ou non, qui prenaient part au rituel afin de reconstituer les rites d’interrogation du dieu dans leur spécificité. Dans un second temps, cette pratique est pensée de manière transversale comme une pratique institutionnelle qui mobilisait des acteurs distincts à trois niveaux différents : celui de la cérémonie, du rituel et de l’échange verbal. / Divination in ancient Greece is a well-known phenomenon, often associated with the emblematic character of the delphic Pythia. Inspired by Apollo, this prophetess delivered her oracles by answering the questions asked to her, and in many ancient texts the oracular consultations are summarized in the form of two complementary statements: "a man asked" and "The god has answered". However, the practices that took place in the oracular sanctuaries can’t be reduced to a tête-à-tête. Far from being limited to an inspired agent, the priestly staff of the oracular sanctuaries was numerous and took part in complex rites to enable the world of men to be put in communication with the gods. This work studies the diversity of these agents and the way in which their interactions allowed the divine word to come out. In the first part, we study the agents who participated in the rites of the seven oracular sanctuaries best attested in the Greek world in the Hellenistic and Roman times: the shrine of Zeus in Dodona, Apollo in Didyma, Claros and Delphi, Trophonios in Lebadeia, Amphiaraos in Oropos and Glykon in Abonoteichos. Each sanctuary is the subject of a chapter in which all the agents, human or not, who took part in the ritual are taken into consideration, in order to reconstitute the rites of questioning the god in their specificity. In a second part, this practice is thought more broadly as an institutional process who associated distinct actors at three different levels: the ceremony, the rite and the verbal exchange.

Evangelicals have been characterized as a people committed to the Bible with historical roots to the fundamentalists who were engaged in controversy with liberals in North America at the beginning of the twentieth century. Harold Lindsell's book, The Battle For The Bible (1976), led to a great deal of discussion about inerrancy among evangelicals which resulted in major conferences and the publication of a number of books and articles discussing inerrancy in the subsequent decade. The principal doctrinal statement of the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS) has been from its inception a statement on inerrancy. The inerrancy debate among evangelicals took a new direction with the publication of R H Gundry's commentary on Matthew (1982). This sparked a debate concerning redaction criticism and the compatibility of using the historical-critical methodology while maintaining a commitment to the doctrine of inerrancy. Just when the debate appeared to be dying down the publication of the results of the Jesus Seminar (1993) led to several responses from evangelicals. The most controversial publication was The Jesus Crisis (1998) which accused evangelicals and some within the ETS of embracing the same methodology as those of the Jesus Seminar, refueling the debate again. Consequently this debate amongst evangelicals, particularly those associated with the ETS has continued for almost two decades. The debate has ranged over a variety of issues related to historical criticism and the study of the Gospels, including presuppositions, the Synoptic Problem, the role of harmonization, and whether the Gospels provide a strict chronology of the life of Jesus. The role of form and tradition criticism and the criteria of authenticity and whether the Gospel writers were faithful historians or creative theologians have also been points of contention in the debate. The languages that Jesus spoke and whether the Gospels preserve the ipsissima verba or vox have highlighted the differing views about the requirements of inerrancy. The redaction criticism debate has proven to have a significant role in exposing differences in methodology, definitions, presuppositions, and boundaries among evangelicals and members of the ETS. / New Testament / D.Th.

The key topics of this project are intergenerational relationships, in the means of creating a positive approach towards ageing in elementary school kids. Regarding the fact of demographic ageing of the population, active engagement of seniors into public life and profitable usage of their experience are both a current matter. The theoretical part of this thesis discusses intergenerational relationships, defines old age as equal to other stages of life and questions various stances and values. The practical part offers guidance to the developing process of collaboration between elementary school kids and seniors, in the area of social studies. The aim of intergenerational cooperation is going to be, through conversations, shared memories and further work with them, the increase of kids' concern about modern history and enhancement of respect towards ageing, therefore prevention of ageism. KEY WORDS population ageing, ageism, intergeneration relationships, positive approach to ageing, family memory, memories, teaching, project - based learning, inspiration for schools, modern history

This master thesis deals with history teaching from 1948 up to 1970. The main focus is not put on the way how the teaching looked really like, but it deals with the teaching methods how history should be taught. The major sources are journals of education for history teaching, mostly Dějepis ve škole and the preceding and following journals. The basic question is whether the magazines could have really helped the teachers in terms of teaching methodology and what was this support like. In the first chapter the history of education is described, the second chapter deals with the journals of education for history teaching. Next is described how a lesson should look like, the whole-class presentation, examination, revision, using a textbook. Special chapter deals with various tools for history teaching, including maps, images, audiovisual aids and literature. Moreover there is covered regional history, excursions, cooperation with museums and archives. In the end the basic question is answered; the journals were able to help the teachers well, many interesting and inspiring articles were in them. Nowadays, the problems of history teaching are almost the same, the have not been solved yet. Furthermore in the end are discussed special methodological debates in the half-public space that were present in...

La thèse s'inscrit dans une thématique générale reliée aux difficultés éprouvées par les organisations pour décrypter, comprendre et analyser les variations de leur environnement depuis l'explosion des échanges et la mondialisation des marchés. Nous débutons nos travaux par une double constatation, généralement admise par la littérature en sciences de gestion, à savoir que l'information est devenue en quelques années la matière première et le carburant essentiel de la chaîne de valeur de l'entreprise tandis que la maîtrise des informations émanant de l'environnement émerge, de plus en plus, comme un enjeu stratégique majeur pour l'organisation. Nos travaux se proposent de démontrer que, dans un contexte sans cesse plus turbulent, le processus décisionnel en entreprise doit savoir tenir compte des « signaux faibles » que délivre l'environnement. En effet, parmi l'ensemble des signaux reçus par l'organisation, la thèse distingue entre les « signaux forts » et les « signaux faibles » et montre leurs impacts différenciés sur la stratégie de l'entreprise ainsi que leurs conséquences, en termes organisationnels, sur la reconfiguration des processus au sein de la chaîne de valeur. L'objectif spécifique de la thèse est donc de chercher à reconnaître quelles sont les informations pertinentes que l'entreprise doit absolument traiter. Pour ce faire, nous examinons la façon dont certains signaux informationnels dit « signaux faibles » pénètrent et diffusent des connaissances nouvelles au sein de l'organisation. Dans un second temps, nous envisageons la manière dont ces connaissances peuvent impacter et moduler le format des processus de la chaîne de valeur. Dans un objectif plus global, notre thèse vise à poser les fonts baptismaux d'un management du processus décisionnel fondé sur l'observation, l'analyse et la compréhension des signaux faibles émis par le marché. En ce sens, nous postulons implicitement que le volume et la valeur des informations pertinentes dont peut disposer l'entreprise dépendent essentiellement de la capacité du management à piloter et à ajuster un double processus d'exploration et d'exploitation des informations délivrées par le signal faible. Les tentatives d'apprentissages, tant individuel que collectif, menées autour de la maîtrise du processus de gestion des signaux faibles se révèlent alors comme un enjeu majeur pour l'organisation confrontée à un environnement instable et difficilement probabilisable. Autrement dit, les signaux faibles sont de puissants vecteurs informationnels centripètes et des contributeurs indispensables à la formalisation et à l'exploitation des connaissances au sein de la chaîne de valeur. Les signaux faibles peuvent donc être considérés comme des informations d'essence anticipatoire qui sont, le moment venu, à l'origine de la reconfiguration des processus. La thèse insiste sur l'importance que doit prendre la gestion anticipative au sein des organisations. En effet, nous avons montré que la question de la gestion anticipative est directement reliée aux surprises que recèlent l'environnement de la firme. Le signal faible devient donc la clé informationnelle qui, à partir d'un évènement ou d'un état spécifique de l'environnement, permet de comprendre et d'anticiper le sens des perturbations à venir. La gestion anticipative de l'organisation se fonde alors prioritairement sur des informations pertinentes que l'organisation n'obtient qu'après avoir collecté, traité et analysé les signaux faibles décelés dans son environnement. Au-delà d'une simple vision statique de la recherche d'informations stratégiques, nous avons souhaité insister sur une vision dynamique de la valorisation des signaux faibles au sein de l'organisation. Dans un environnement mouvant, l'information « contextualisée » oxygène et fait respirer l'entreprise. L'exploitation des signaux faibles va, en outre, permettre de régler la fréquence respiratoire de l'organisation afin d'adapter les ressources et compétences de cette dernière aux différentes menaces ou opportunités spécifiques qui peuvent surgir dans son environnement. Au même titre ou sinon plus que le capital et le travail, l'information est devenue un facteur de production à part entière. En effet, issu d'un état instable de l'environnement, le signal faible est une information parcellaire qui présente la caractéristique de pouvoir potentiellement délivrer une charge informationnelle susceptible de venir renforcer la cognition et la cohérence de l'organisation. Dans l'avenir, nous espérons voir des travaux ultérieurs poursuivre dans cette voie de recherche afin de, peut être, mieux mesurer la réceptivité des entreprises au concept de gestion anticipative à partir des signaux faibles de l'environnement.

This thesis aimed to investigate generational differences in the frequency and importance of meaningful work in employees based on the 7 facets of the Map of Meaning. Hypotheses were tested through Analysis of Variance of secondary data. 395 participants self-reported levels of meaningful work on the Comprehensive Meaningful Work Scale. Results indicated that Generation Y had significantly lower levels of meaningful work. Generation Y had significantly lower levels of Unity (importance), Serving (frequency and importance), Expressing full potential (frequency), Reality (frequency and importance) and Inspiration (frequency). Significant differences occurred mainly between Generation Y and Baby boomers, with some significant differences between Generation Y and Generation X and no significant differences between Generation X and Baby boomers. Results showed that overall frequency and importance levels were significantly lower for Generation Y. Overall frequency levels were lower than overall importance levels, which suggests that employees’ desire for meaningful work may not be satisfied. In light of this evidence, it is suggested that to improve organisational outcomes such as engagement, retention and performance, managers should provide opportunities for employees to engage in meaningful work with particular focus on Generation Y. Employees themselves should take responsibility to find meaning in their own work and life because engagement in meaningful activities can lead to satisfaction, belonging, fulfilment and a better understanding of one’s purpose in life.
