Questions (5)
Question
How can you - at the same time - enjoy and sustainably learn new aspects about classical management schools? - This question is of paramount importance in and outside academia.
In the last year, I created (together with young artists) this interactive podcast as a new open educational resource.
In this podcast, you will become the detective trying to solve the murder of the "Unfinished Business" that unravels in your ears. To get from one activity to the other you have to answer correctly a tricky question at the end of each act.
Please see for yourself and I would appreciate much your feedback!
I would much appreciate it if you participate in a short anonymised survey at the end so that I could draw conclusions for future projects.
Question
I am currently preparing an annotated bibliography for the topic Social Work Management (also: Human Service Management). Do you know publications that have been published within the period 1970-today? Thank you in advance.
Question
I‘m looking for meta-analysis about effects of virtual/augmented reality on social skills and competencies? - I am preparing for a project to would deal with VR and AR applications in higher education. Of importance to the project are the effects on development of social competencies such as empathy, change of perspective, dealing with ambiguity, self-reflection, role positioning, etc. Could you help?
Question
As I am interested in any (social scientist's) research on missionaries I would like to gain insights in a "rhetorical analysis" about acculturation of missionaries. Thanks.
Question
Background to this question is this: In the last years I did a qualitative study about intercultural experiences of German Protestant missionaries. In analyzing the narratives of the missionaries I came to the conclusion that not formal, but informal learning has a huge impact on the effectiveness of missionaries inculturation. As a trained social scientist with little theological education I am open to any comment and from any disciplinary background. So far, my focus was on the cultural psychological issues regarding missionary assignements and feel that it is time to think outside the box. Many thanks in advance
