THE VIABILITY OF FUNDAMENTAL UNITS IN HIGHER EDUCATION IN THE GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC: STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION AND FUNDAMENTAL TASKS OF A UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT     

Horst Brendel  Ronald Hartwig  Angela Näther  Gerhard Schad 《Higher Education in Europe》1989,14(3):23-30

The authors focus on the university department as the basic administrative and productive unit in the managerial structures of universities in the German Democratic Republic. For the authors, the departmental structure is more efficient in almost every way than the former system of faculties and chairs because it permits a more rational use of available human, material, technical, and financial resources. Departments which are structured in terms of specific disciplinary and scientific criteria can more easily forge links with other departments with regard to interdisciplinary projects and programmes. They are also in a position to interact more efficiently with outside partners, in industry, for instance. The authors focus their study on the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Technological University of Karl‐Marx‐Stadt by reference to which they illustrate the versatility of university departments in general and the advantages of such management concepts as decentralization and individual initiative and responsibility.  相似文献

Faculty and Student Perceptions of Dual Relationships Within Counselor Education: A Qualitative Analysis     

Jered B. Kolbert  Barbara Morgan  Johnston M. Brendel 《Counselor Education & Supervision》2002,41(3):193-206

The authors undertook this study to identify how counselor education faculty and students determine the ethical appropriateness of dilemmas portraying dual relationships in friendships, mentoring, monetary interactions, and romantic‐sexual relationships. Faculty and student perceptions of scenarios that depict dual relationships between faculty and students were assessed and analyzed using qualitative methods. Results suggest that, unlike most students, faculty trust the ability of counselor educators to maintain objectivity and avoid student exploitation even sometimes while engaged in dual‐role relationships. Furthermore, faculty may be unaware of students' concerns regarding the fairness of such relationships and the impact they have on the student body.  相似文献   

The inseparable role of emotions in the teaching and learning of primary school science     

Christina Siry  Michelle Brendel 《Cultural Studies of Science Education》2016,11(3):803-815

In this paper, we seek to explore the inseparable role of emotions in the teaching and the learning of science at the primary school level, as we elaborate the theoretical underpinnings and personal experiences that lead us to this notion of inseparability. We situate our perspectives on the complexity of science education in primary schools, draw on existing literature on emotions in science, and present arguments for the necessity of working towards positive emotions in our work with young children and their teachers. We layer our own perspectives and experiences as teachers and as researchers onto methodological arguments through narratives to emerge with a reflective essay that seeks to highlight the importance of emotions in our work with children and their teachers in elementary school science.  相似文献
