Rechtsextreme, rassistische und antisemitische Einstellungen sind derzeit in Jugendmilieus weit verbreitet. In der Post-Migrationsgesellschaft gewinnen türkisch rechtsextreme Bewegungen, wie die Ülkücü-Bewegung (auch bekannt als Graue Wölfe), an Einfluss und begeistern türkeistämmige Jugendliche für ultra-nationalistische Mobilisierungen. Diese Entwicklung schafft einen Nährboden für Gewalt, Hass und Demokratiefeindlichkeit unter jungen Menschen. Im November 2020 beschloss der Deutsche Bundestag einen parteiübergreifenden Antrag unter dem Motto „Nationalismus und Rassismus die Stirn bieten – Einfluss der Ülkücü-Bewegung zurückdrängen“, um auf die Gefahr des „türkischen Rechtsextremismus in Deutschland“ aufmerksam zu machen. Der Antrag forderte eine konsequente Bekämpfung aller Formen von Rechtsextremismus in Deutschland und die Prüfung eines Verbots der Ülkücü-Bewegung. Diese Entwicklungen stellen die politische Bildung und Soziale Arbeit vor die Herausforderung, neue Strategien zur Radikalisierungsprävention zu entwickeln. Diese Strategien müssen zwingend eine rassismuskritische Perspektive einnehmen.

Highlights – Research discusses how civic education may alleviate social inequality in political efficacy. – Openness towards and awareness of controversial issues may play an important role. – Teachers show significant differences when interpreting what makes an issue controversial. – The political and epistemic interpretation seems more influential than the emotional criteria. Purpose: The aim of the article is to contribute to an overall discussion of how civic education may influence the political efficacy of adolescents, with specific emphasis on social equalisation. We analyse how the inclusion of controversial issues in civic education may contribute towards increased social equalisation in political efficacy. Design/methodology/approach: Our study follows a qualitative research design and is based on semi-structured interviews with social science teachers in Norwegian lower-secondary schools. Our contribution is influenced by extensive quantitative research, on which we seek to expand through qualitative exploration. Findings: Our main finding is that the inclusion of controversial issues in civic education does not in itself contribute towards social equalisation in political efficacy, but that more openness towards and different understandings of controversial issues that are included may potentially do so. Research limitations/implications: The scope of our study is limited by its size, but it should give some direction for further research. Practical implications: We suggest that teachers may benefit from approaching controversial issues in a less personal way, favouring epistemic and political criteria rather than emotional ones.

Research exploring strategy implementation in the context of private equity funded companies is sparse. Addressing this gap, this study has inquired into the cooperation between the key stakeholders of a recently acquired portfolio company and the acquiring private equity firm during the portfolio company’s four-year holding period. The research is grounded in the Strategy as Practice (SAP) paradigm and utilizes an insider action research method. By using this approach, it was possible to uncover unique insights on micro-level processes and action as well as rich narratives. From this data, an empirically grounded and explanatory strategy implementation framework was developed. This contains three dimensions including a Strategy Process Dimension, a Leadership Dimension, and a Value Creation & Growth Dimension with distinct phases and structural elements. Additionally, 8 novel research propositions could be identified. This study is a rare attempt to immerse into a private equity context. Based on for the context novel participatory approaches, important contributions to strategy implementation research are made (including in terms of approach) and additionally contributions to the SAP and buy-out literatures are made.

Purpose: The study aimed at investigating the prevalence and characteristics of classroom practices geared at promoting higher-order social studies thinking, and the potential dilemma for teachers between focusing on explaining knowledge to and intellectually challenging students. Design/methodology/approach: A comparative design using data from naturalistic classroom observations of 80 social studies lessons in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. We deployed the PLATO observation system to systematically measure intellectual challenge and the conceptual complexity of teacher explanations across the three countries. Findings: We found evidence that many teachers promoted higher-order thinking to varying degrees within and across the three countries. Furthermore, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish teachers seemed to focus on different teaching practices related to higher-order thinking. Practical implications: These findings provide important empirical knowledge about naturally occurring classroom practices in the Nordic context that may be relevant for teachers to reflect on higher-order thinking in social studies.

Background: While patient care often involves interprofessional collaboration, interprofessional teaching formats with participants from medical and physiotherapy fields are still rare. Furthermore, interprofessional education often takes place as separate courses and is not integrated into the clinical curriculum. Therefore, the goal of this project was to develop and implement interprofessional content into bedside teaching. Course development: The clinical subject of the course was “Parkinson’s disease”, as this condition allowed for the exemplary demonstration of interprofessional teamwork and different competencies. Through interprofessional bedside teaching and a specific clinical context, interprofessionalism was intended to be integrated and experienced as natural part of clinical practice. The bedside teaching was complemented with work in break-out groups and a lecture. Evaluation: The course was first conducted in the winter semester 2021/22. Participants were medical and physiotherapy students. Teaching teams were also interprofessional. A concurrent evaluation was carried out using the University of the West of England Interprofessional Questionnaire (UWE-IP) before and after course participation. UWE-IP scores in all sub-scales indicated a positive attitude, except for the “Interprofessional Learning” scale among physiotherapy students, which reflected a neutral attitude. Significant group differences were observed in the same scale at the pre-course time point between medical and physiotherapy students (p

The functioning of multi-nation monetary unions with several central banks is conditioned by many factors and considerations, such as the capacity to deal with crises, the political will and operational skill to foster financial integration and to develop a mix of rules and discretion in the cooperation between the central banks. The Scandinavian monetary union (SMU) between 1873 and 1931 is a case in point for illustrating the importance of these factors and considerations. We examine the policies implemented in the Scandinavian countries to deal with asymmetries of payments flows and with financial crises at three levels: in an account of major crises that required lending of last resort, in a study of the clearing and settlement mechanism established in the union, and in a survey of contemporary economists’ views on lending of last resort and cooperation in the SMU.

Abstract Background We tested the hypothesis that breeding schemes with a pre-selection step, in which carriers of a lethal recessive allele (LRA) were culled, and with optimum-contribution selection (OCS) reduce the frequency of a LRA, control rate of inbreeding, and realise as much genetic gain as breeding schemes without a pre-selection step. Methods We used stochastic simulation to estimate true genetic gain realised at a 0.01 rate of true inbreeding (ΔFtrue) by breeding schemes that combined one of four pre-selection strategies with one of three selection strategies. The four pre-selection strategies were: (1) no carriers culled, (2) male carriers culled, (3) female carriers culled, and (4) all carriers culled. Carrier-status was known prior to selection. The three selection strategies were: (1) OCS in which $$\Delta {\text{F}}_{{{\text{true}}}}$$ Δ F true was predicted and controlled using pedigree relationships (POCS), (2) OCS in which $$\Delta {\text{F}}_{{{\text{true}}}}$$ Δ F true was predicted and controlled using genomic relationships (GOCS), and (3) truncation selection of parents. All combinations of pre-selection strategies and selection strategies were tested for three starting frequencies of the LRA (0.05, 0.10, and 0.15) and two linkage statuses with the locus that has the LRA being on a chromosome with or without loci affecting the breeding goal trait. The breeding schemes were simulated for 10 discrete generations (t = 1, …, 10). In all breeding schemes, ΔFtrue was calibrated to be 0.01 per generation in generations t = 4, …, 10. Each breeding scheme was replicated 100 times. Results We found no significant difference in true genetic gain from generations t = 4, …, 10 between breeding schemes with or without pre-selection within selection strategy. POCS and GOCS schemes realised similar true genetic gains from generations t = 4, …, 10. POCS and GOCS schemes realised 12% more true genetic gain from generations t = 4, …, 10 than truncation selection schemes. Conclusions We advocate for OCS schemes with pre-selection against the LRA that cause animal suffering and high costs. At LRA frequencies of 0.10 or lower, OCS schemes in which male carriers are culled reduce the frequency of LRA, control rate of inbreeding, and realise no significant reduction in true genetic gain compared to OCS schemes without pre-selection against LRA.

Abstract Background Streptococcosis is a major bacterial disease in Nile tilapia that is caused by Streptococcus agalactiae infection, and development of resistant strains of Nile tilapia represents a sustainable approach towards combating this disease. In this study, we performed a controlled disease trial on 120 full-sib families to (i) quantify and characterize the potential of genomic selection for survival to S. agalactiae infection in Nile tilapia, and (ii) identify the best genomic model and the optimal density of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for this trait. Methods In total, 40 fish per family (15 fish intraperitoneally injected and 25 fish as cohabitants) were used in the challenge test. Mortalities were recorded every 3 h for 35 days. After quality control, genotypes (50,690 SNPs) and phenotypes (0 for dead and 1 for alive) for 2472 cohabitant fish were available. Genetic parameters were obtained using various genomic selection models (genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP), BayesB, BayesC, BayesR and BayesS) and a traditional pedigree-based model (PBLUP). The pedigree-based analysis used a deep 17-generation pedigree. Prediction accuracy and bias were evaluated using five replicates of tenfold cross-validation. The genomic models were further analyzed using 10 subsets of SNPs at different densities to explore the effect of pruning and SNP density on predictive accuracy. Results Moderate estimates of heritabilities ranging from 0.15 ± 0.03 to 0.26 ± 0.05 were obtained with the different models. Compared to a pedigree-based model, GBLUP (using all the SNPs) increased prediction accuracy by 15.4%. Furthermore, use of the most appropriate Bayesian genomic selection model and SNP density increased the prediction accuracy up to 71%. The 40 to 50 SNPs with non-zero effects were consistent for all BayesB, BayesC and BayesS models with respect to marker id and/or marker locations. Conclusions These results demonstrate the potential of genomic selection for survival to S. agalactiae infection in Nile tilapia. Compared to the PBLUP and GBLUP models, Bayesian genomic models were found to boost the prediction accuracy significantly.

Biomaterials of natural origin have recently gained increasing attention in the field of dental implantology. The requirements for such materials, however, are very high. In addition to high clinical efficiency in tissue regeneration, wound healing should be demonstrably positively influenced. The translational division for regenerative orofacial medicine of the Clinic and Polyclinic for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) is examining this research topic by investigating which innovative treatment methods for the reconstruction of bone defects or for augmentative procedures can be applied in the future or are already being applied in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery.

The chronolog y of the Scanian churches and the dating of their murals has been a popular subject for art historians and archaeologists since the 19th century. An important but often overlooked factor is that large parts of the landscape were not colonised until the second half of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century. This article deals with Östra Sallerup Church in the Frosta hundred – the district “between the forest and the plough” – in Ringsjöbygden, at the centre of Danish Scania. The geographical, demographic and political conditions behind the establishment of the church, the motifs and Byzantine origins of its paintings are studied. Special attention is paid to the mural painting with the Biblical motif “Christ and the Samaritan woman at Sychar’s well” (John 4:1–42) and its possible models in the Mediterranean area, especially the mosaic with the same motif in the Cathedral of Monreale, erected by William II of Norman Sicily.

Der Beitrag knüpft an die Forschungen zum Internet als Erzählumgebung (vgl. Tophinke 2017; Schachtner 2016) an und analysiert die Programmierumgebung Scratch als Medium des Erzählens. Die Verfasserinnen stellen die erzählerischen Möglichkeiten des multimodalen Tools vor und analysieren zwei Korpora von Text-Bild-Animationen. Es zeigt sich, dass der Code ein textkonstitutives Element in diesen Scratch-Projekten ist. Das Potential des Tools zum multimodalen Erzählen wird in den untersuchten Workshop-Projekten jedoch nicht annähernd ausgeschöpft. Die Vermittlung von Programmierfähigkeiten, und nicht von Erzählfähigkeiten, steht jedoch im Vordergrund. Daraus resultiert, dass Schulkinder, die schon längst episodisch erzählen könnten, beim Programmieren mit Scratch auf das sogenannte isolierte Erzählen zurückfallen. Der Beitrag schlägt Möglichkeiten vor, die Programmierumgebung im Sinne der Creative Learning Spiral zur Ausbildung von Erzählfertigkeiten zu nutzen. Abstract (english): Storytelling in the multimodal programming environment Scratch The article ties in with the research on the Internet as a narrative environment (cf. Tophinke 2017; Schachtner 2016) and analyzes the programming environment Scratch as a medium of narration. The authors present the narrative possibilities of the multimodal tool and analyze two corpora of text-image-animations. It is shown that the code is a text constitutive element in these Scratch projects. However, the potential of the tool for multimodal narration is not nearly exhausted in the workshop projects examined. The focus, however, is on teaching programming skills rather than narrative skills. As a result, pupils who could have been telling stories episodically fall back on so-called isolated narration when programming with Scratch. The paper suggests ways to use the programming environment in the sense of the Creative Learning Spiral to build up narrative skills.

To provide tailored guidance on research data management, discipline-specific data management plan (DMP) templates are core. Different stakeholders are pursuing the development of such discipline-specific DMP templates in different ways. In this paper, we present three such approaches. First, we introduce the concept of domain data protocols, describing the work of the project Domain Data Protocols for Empirical Educational Research (in Germany). Members of this project develop tailored guidance on research data management (RDM) vertically, i.e., within the educational research discipline. Second, we present the approach of the Research Data Alliance Working Group on Discipline-specific Guidance for DMPs. The working group identifies discipline-specific DMP characteristics and uses them to analyse common practices and differences in RDM horizontally across disciplines. Finally, we describe the approach of the Research Data Management Organiser Sub-Working Group on Guidance, which facilitates mapping of discipline-specific DMP templates across disciplines. Although these three approaches differ in their underlying concepts, combining them facilitates identifying differences and commonalities in RDM across disciplines. By assigning discipline-specific characteristics and mapping these characteristics across disciplines, the three approaches improve our understanding of data management and research data within a particular discipline, as well as across disciplines.
