    1.Einleitung Im September 1990 Hatten Zwei Absolventen Einer Päd

    1.Einleitung Im September 1990 hatten zwei Absolventen einer päd. Fachhochschule die Idee, einen kleinen Kindergarten zu gründen. Vorbild bildeten die alternativen Kindergärten in Westdeutschland und es sollte eine Alternative zu den bestehenden DDR-Einrichtungen geschaffen werden. Durch die fleißige und engagierte Arbeit der Beteiligten konnte der Kindergarten im September 1991 mit 12 Kindern eröffnet werden. Die vorliegende Konzeption berücksichtigt den sächsischen Bildungsplan, gleichzeitig auch die rechtliche, verwaltungstechnisch, sozial und landschaftlich spezifische Situation in Dresden. 2. Rahmenbedingungen Der Kindergarten befindet sich im Dresdner Stadtteil Trachau –Wilder – Mann. Der von Gründerzeitvillen geprägte , grüne Stadtteil ist ein beliebtes Zuzugsgebiet für junge Familien. In der Kinderoase werden derzeit 22 Kinder im Alter von 1,5 Jahren bis zum Schuleintritt in einer altersgemischter Gruppe betreut . Nach Möglichkeit werden gleich viele Mädchen und Jungen in die Gruppe aufgenommen.In der Kinderoase sind 3 Mitarbeiterinnen ( staatlich anerkannte Erzieherinnen und Diplompädagogin) beschäftigt. Das Team arbeitet basisdemokratisch zusammen. Außerdem sind in der Kinderoase eine Praktikantin im Freiwilligen Sozialen Jahr und ein Bundesfreiwilliger tätig. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, soziale Praktika zu absolvieren, um sich im Berufsleben zu orientieren. Der Kindergarten ist ganzjährig geöffnet. Ausnahmen sind die Weihnachtsferien, der Gründonnerstag, Brückentage und die Klausur der Pädagogen an welchen die Kinderoase geschlossen bleibt. Die Eltern werden darüber rechtzeitig informiert. Die Kinder können Montag bis Freitag zwischen 7.30 Uhr und 16.30 Uhr betreut werden. Räumlichkeiten und Orte: Dem Kindgarten steht eine Fläche von insgesamt 120 m2 auf zwei Etagen zur Verfügung. Im Erdgeschoss befindet sich ein heller großer Gemeinschaftsraum mit Teeküche und von diesem abgehend ein kleines Spielzimmer. Im Eingangsbereich sind Garderobe und ein Bad mit Toilette zu finden.

Chapter I identifies social forces contributing to the development and expansion of community colleges and the continuing changes in institutional purpose. Chapter 2 examines shifting patterns in student characteristics and goals, reasons for the predominance of part-time attendance, participation and achievement among minority students, attrition issues, and the most recent data on student transfer rates. Chapter 3 utilizes national data to illustrate differences between full- and part-time faculty and discusses issues related to tenure, salary, workload, faculty evaluation and preparation, moonlighting, and burnout. Chapter 4 reviews modifications in college management stemming from changes in institutional size, the advent of collective bargaining, reductions in available funds, and changes in governance and control.

  • Classifying Educational Programmes

    Classifying Educational Programmes

    Classifying Educational Programmes Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries 1999 Edition ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT Foreword As the structure of educational systems varies widely between countries, a framework to collect and report data on educational programmes with a similar level of educational content is a clear prerequisite for the production of internationally comparable education statistics and indicators. In 1997, a revised International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED-97) was adopted by the UNESCO General Conference. This multi-dimensional framework has the potential to greatly improve the comparability of education statistics – as data collected under this framework will allow for the comparison of educational programmes with similar levels of educational content – and to better reflect complex educational pathways in the OECD indicators. The purpose of Classifying Educational Programmes: Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries is to give clear guidance to OECD countries on how to implement the ISCED-97 framework in international data collections. First, this manual summarises the rationale for the revised ISCED framework, as well as the defining characteristics of the ISCED-97 levels and cross-classification categories for OECD countries, emphasising the criteria that define the boundaries between educational levels. The methodology for applying ISCED-97 in the national context that is described in this manual has been developed and agreed upon by the OECD/INES Technical Group, a working group on education statistics and indicators representing 29 OECD countries. The OECD Secretariat has also worked closely with both EUROSTAT and UNESCO to ensure that ISCED-97 will be implemented in a uniform manner across all countries.

This information may be freely used and copied for non-commercial purposes, provided that the source is acknowledged (©EURASHE). EURASHE Ravensteingalerij 27/3 1000 Brussels BELGIUM ISBN-9789081686709 This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein Foreword ‘Level 5-The Missing Link’ is an intriguing title for this new publication of EURASHE for those not versed in the qualifications terminology. It rightly points to an existing lack in the National Qualifications Frameworks, at least in some countries in the European Higher Education Area (formerly ‘Bologna’). The implementation of the two- (later three) cycle structure also had to incorporate the level that is the link between secondary and higher education, and this for reasons explained below. It is a great merit of the two researchers, Magda Kirsch and Yves Beernaert, co-authors of the report, that they have taken up the challenge of mapping a sector of (higher) education in a variety of countries, which often have just this in common, that they are among the 47 that signed the Bologna Declaration, but otherwise have such different education systems and structures that make comparisons of levels and programmes extremely difficult.

    EDUCATION POLICY OUTLOOK GERMANY EDUCATION POLICY OUTLOOK: GERMANY © OECD 2020 0 June 2020 EDUCATION POLICY OUTLOOK This policy profile on education in Germany is part of the Education Policy Outlook series, which presents comparative analysis of education policies and reforms across OECD countries. Building on the OECD’s substantial comparative and sectoral policy knowledge base, the series offers a comparative outlook on education policy. This country policy profile is an update of the first policy profile of Germany (2014) and provides: analysis of the educational context, strengths, challenges and policies; analysis of international trends; and insight into policies and reforms on selected topics. It is an opportunity to take stock of progress and where the education system stands today from the perspective of the OECD through synthetic, evidence-based and comparable analysis. In addition to country-specific profiles, the series also includes a recurring publication. The first volume, Education Policy Outlook 2015: Making Reforms Happen, was released in 2015. The second volume, Education Policy Outlook 2018: Putting Student Learning at the Centre was released in 2018. Its complement, Education Policy Outlook 2019: Working Together to Help Students Achieve their Potential was released in autumn 2019. Designed for policy makers, analysts and practitioners who seek information and analysis of education policy taking into account the importance of national context, the country policy profiles offer constructive analysis of education policy
