The aim of diploma thesis Teachers personality in the 21st century is to point out the importance of the human spiritual dimension, as well as the importance of personality development of every teacher. The thesis is trying to disclose which of the challenges are teachers facing nowadays and how the students and pupils themselves are affected by their lecturers. The paper describes the transformation of the teacher's role in present-day society. Two different approaches in teachers training are presented and compared - classical higher education and Waldorf education. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the definition of the personality concept regarding a psychological point of view, as well as the definition of teacher education paradigm transformation relating to key competences and professional teachers standards. One section of the text is describing the basic principles of Waldorf pedagogy. The empirical part consists of an analysis of two different teacher education approaches, obtained through interviews with representatives of the Faculty of Education of Charles University in Prague and Freie Hochschule in Stuttgart. The benefit of this thesis is to bring the description of the educational model, which emphasises on a artistic process in the future teachers education, into the...

Zukünftige Ausrüstungen von Eisenbahninfrastruktur mit zugorientierter Sicherungslogik, wie sie mit dem Advanced Protection System (APS) derzeit in einer frühen Entwicklungsphase ist, verzichten auf ortsfeste Signale und Gleisfreimeldeanlagen, wenn die Fahrzeuge mit einem Train Integrity Monitoring System (TIMS) ausgerüstet sind. In dieser Masterarbeit werden verschiedene Betriebsszenarien hinsichtlich des Ablaufs und der Sicherungslogik untersucht und Lösungen vorgeschlagen, mit denen das APS weiterentwickelt werden könnte. Aufbauend auf den derzeitigen Abläufen nach Baseline 3.6 unter der Überwachung von ETCS Level 2 ohne Signalen (L2oS) wird ein für Level 3 optimiertes Verfahren zur Sicherung der Zugfolgeabstände erarbeitet. Im weiteren Verlauf wird die Untersuchung dieses Verfahren auf Betriebsabläufe im Bahnhof sowie für die Sicherung besonderer Elemente wie beispielsweise Bahnübergänge ausgeweitet.:1 Vorbemerkungen 2 Status que: ETCS L2oS und ATO 3 Sicherungstechnische Bedeutung des Fahrens im wandernden Raumabstand 4 Notwendigkeit der Entwicklung von APS 5 Sicherungstechnische Betrachtung verschiedener Betriebsszenarien 6 Untersuchung des Bahnhofs Schorndorf 7 Grenzüberschreitende Bedeutung der ETCS-Halttafel 8 Zusammenfassung und Ausblick Anhang: vereinfachter ETCS-Übersichtsplan Schorndorf

<p>In 1939 a law was passed in Sweden which forbade employers to dismiss female employees because of marriage or pregnancy.

The purpose of the present work is to provide a brief survey of the process of urban sprawl. What are its origins, how did it develop and why? Moreover, focus will be on envi-ronmental concerns in the framework of urban sprawl. The thesis concentrates on develop-ments in Europe and North America, where cities can look back on a long history of sprawl, and where processes have become very sophisticated. Based on a detailed description of the origins and history of urban sprawl in Europe and the United States, potentially sprawl-induced effects on the environment will be presented and discussed. In a further step, urban sprawl in two case studies (Stuttgart and Leipzig) will be highlighted and discussed with special focus on environ-mental effects. The purpose in doing so is basically to provide a basis and a starting point for further discussions concerning potential and actual effects of sprawl on environment con-cerns.

This thesis is concerned with the artists Tora Vega Holmström and Adolf Hölzel. Hölzel taught students in painting in the Dachau art colony, where TVH attended his classes in 1903. A thorough investigation of her notes provides us with novel information concerning his teaching and his theoretical outlook on art.
Their correspondence extended 30 years past her stay in Dachau and over the years their relationship evolved into a cordial friendship between two likeminded colleagues. Tora Vega Holmström often came to visit Adolf Hölzel in Stuttgart, where he had come to teach at the art academy. She became a member of the group of avant-garde artists known as the Hölzel circle („Hölzel-Kreis“). 
On a visit to Sweden in 1911, Adolf Hölzel came into contact with the Swedish progressive educational movement at the community college ”Hvilan” in Scania, which was led by Tora Vega Holmströms father. We establish that through Hölzel, there was an indirect influence from this institution on the methods of teaching employed in the early Bauhaus in Weimar. Throughout the 1920s, Tora Vega Holmström spent time in France and became a intermediary between the cubists in Paris and the Hölzel circle in Stuttgart. Through a brief analysis of some of her works we show how firmly her style of painting is grounded in Hölzel’s formalism and his theories of colour.

La finalidad de esta tesis es la reconsideración de la aportación de Frei Otto a la arquitectura desde la reflexión teórica y la experiencia metodológica e investigadora por él realizada en estrecha cooperación con los colaboradores del Institut für leichte Flächentragwerke (Instituto de Estructuras Ligeras), por él fundado y dirigido, en la Universidad de Stuttgart. Planteamos como tesis la plena vigencia de su experiencia y su reflexión teórica, alejada de los planteamientos del high tech, al que tradicionalmente ha quedado asociado por la crítica, y proponemos su consideración en el contexto de la reflexión sobre la búsqueda de la adecuación entre el material y la forma resistente, que ha caracterizado a los ingenieros más innovadores en la creación de formas con los nuevos materiales del siglo XX. / Songel Gonzalez, JM.
