Die drei Komponenten des Umweltbewusstseins, die untersucht werden sollen:
1) Umweltwissen
2) Umweltverhalten
3) Umwelteinstellung (immer im Bezug auf die Kernthemen des NPG)
In der ersten Projektphase geht es darum, die Evaluationsmethoden zu entwickeln und die Umsetzung wissenschaftlich-beratend zu begleiten. In der Folge soll das Evaluationsprojekt weiter unterstützt werden (Datenerhebung, Auswertung…). Geplant ist, Masterstudierende zu involvieren.
The three components of environmental awareness to be studied
1) Environmental knowledge
2) Environmental performance/ behaviour
3) Environmental attitude (always in relation to the core issues of the NPG)
In the first project phase, the aim is to develop the evaluation methods and to provide scientific and advisory support during implementation. Subsequently, the evaluation project is to be further supported (data collection, analysis, etc.). It is planned to involve Master students.
Die derzeit vorhandene Dateneingabestruktur soll für den Einsatz auf verschiedenen elektronischen Geräten aufbereitet und inhaltlich adaptiert werden.
Die qualitative Begleitforschung zu Einsatzmöglichkeiten mittels Fokusgruppen und Leitfadeninterviews richtet sich an UserInnen (PädagogInnen, Studierende, Eltern).
The current data entry structure is to be prepared for use on various electronic devices and analyzed in terms of content.
The accompanying qualitative research by means of focus groups and guide views is aimed at educators, students, parents.
The research project „Auf die Zeichnung, fertig los: Sketching macht Schule“ focuses on the importance of drawing and the visual language of pupils on the path of aesthetic literacy and personality development. Changing childlike visual languages, added value of drawing in the context of emotional development, general learning ability and motivation are examined.
The implementation of „artistic sketchbooks“ by the team of researchers enables pupils to practice their individual, unique visual language and leaves behind a portfolio of artistic development. In aesthetic learning, according to another basic thesis, the basis for the other learning processes is laid.
Through interviews with pupils and teachers and an in-depth document analysis of the sketchbooks, the team of researchers receives qualitative and quantitative data that are to be compared with existing scientific findings and discussed with national and international experts. The knowledge process leads to an editorial volume that makes the meaning and value of drawing for children, parents and teachers alike, accessible and usable in a new way.
Zahlreiche Leitfäden, Videos, Grafiken und andere Strategien sollen Kinder beim „richtigen“ virenabtötenden Händewachen unterstützen. Sowohl medial als auch institutionell und familiär, wurden diesen Maßnahmen bereits seit dem ersten Lockdown im Frühjahr 2020 implementiert.
Ziel dieses Forschungsprojektes ist es aufzuspüren, ob diese Maßnahmen im Alltag der Kinder selbstverständliche Anwendung finden und somit die Bemühungen Wirksamkeit zeigen.
Durch die Methode der nicht-teilnehmende Beobachtung in elementarpädagogischen Institutionen in der STMK wird der Prozess des Händewachens im Alltag von Kindern im Alter von 3-7 Jahren erfasst und dokumentiert. Einer anschließenden Auswertung folgt die Feststellung, ob bzw. inwieweit die Bemühungen Wirksamkeit im Sinne virenhygienischer Erwartungen zeigen und welche konkreten unterstützenden Strategien in den Institutionen beobachtbar sind.
This application adheres well to the Erasmus+ program plan’s main aim to improve public health, quality of life and reduce social and cultural inequality in health. HAPHC emphasizes the prioritized thematic areas given in the call for development, implementation and evaluation the effect of health promoting and academic enhancement. The aim is to promote public health within physical activity, inactivity, diet and prevention of non-communicable diseases among children throughout elementary schools. The project includes partners from different sectors, such as academia, municipality and public health service and thereby creates a cross-sectional collaborative network of highly skilled expertise in a Pan-European study. The intervention holds the potential for implementation at an international level based on scientific evidence, and the project as a whole will additionally provide important knowledge to the literature.
HAPHC will focus on a new pedagogical approach, PAAC, on a large scale implementation in elementary schools across four European countries: Norway, Austria, Slovenia and Belgium. Some schools have been selected and recruited in preparation phase and are already part of the consortium. There is a global need for public efforts to halt the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity among children as well as other non-communicable diseases. This study will draw attention from policy makers, media, teachers, parents and children to improve and promote better health among children in Europe. There is a need to promote health at an early age to provide the best possibilities to each individual for a healthy and productive life, as well as for society to have healthy, hardworking citizens that may contribute to building society. There is also the need to change the sedentary learning practices that are not giving best learning and health results. The study’s thematic areas allow the investigation of different factors relation to learning as well as the others secondary health outcomes. Mental health among children and adolescents has for good reason been put high on the political agenda though its important role for future health and productivity. This project is in accordance with the need for population-based longitudinal research on mental health, including assessment of risk factors that have the potential to be strengthened or changed to inform intervention strategies designed to promote positive development and well-being in children and integration among children. Also, the study evaluates possible effects on mental health from a school based longitudinal intervention.
Die Autorinnen und Autoren der Studie gehen von der Hypothese aus, dass Religionslehrerinnen und -lehrer einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur so genannten „Schulpastoral“ leisten, der aber häufig zu wenig Beachtung findet. Die Untersuchung geht der Forschungsfrage nach, in welchem quantitativen Ausmaß die Religionslehrpersonen in der Steiermark pastorale Akzente in ihren Schulen setzen.
