Jüngste Entwicklungen im Medienbereich, oft umschrieben mit dem Begriff "Web 2.0", führten zu tiefgreifenden Veränderungen in Studium. Die empirische Untersuchung beschreibt die Nutzung von 43 verschiedenen Medienangeboten (Web 2.0-Dienste, Printmedien und E-Learning-Angebote) durch 1.500 Studierende. Auf Basis der Ergebnisse werden Zusammenhänge der Medienakzeptanz mit verschiedenen Faktoren (Lernverhalten, soziodemographische Größen) aufgezeigt und eine Medientypologie des Studiums entworfen.

Reporting on a multi-disciplinary project this book seeks to reconstruct the history since the last glaciation of the area between and including the middle reaches of the Rivers Swale and Ure in Yorkshire. Included in this history are both natural changes, determined from studies of landforms and sediments, and human-induced changes, recorded in archaeological and geo-archaeological records. The work is set in the context of previous research and pre-existing knowledge, outlined in an introductory chapter. Key methods used include geomorphological mapping and the study of sediment exposures, both aimed at reconstructing the final phases of glaciation and then the melting of the ice and its replacement by the post-glacial rivers, as well as the use of fossil materials to reconstruct the post-glacial record, both of natural change and increasing anthropogenic impacts.

Kaum eine Todesursache gibt so viel Aufschluss über das Wohl einer Gesellschaft wie der Suizid. In der DDR wurden vergleichbare und valide Suizidzahlen systematisch erhoben, aber strengstens geheim gehalten: Die seit Mitte der 1970er-Jahre als »Vertrauliche Verschlusssache« eingestuften Statistiken waren nur einer sehr kleinen Gruppe zugänglich. Ellen von den Driesch hat diese verloren geglaubten Daten wiederentdeckt und in umfangreichen Recherchen eine völlig neue Datenbasis geschaffen. Erstmals erlaubt dieses bisher unveröffentlichte Material eine systematische Analyse der Veränderungen der Suizidraten in der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik. Das Buch, das das Suizidgeschehen in der DDR in historische und sozialwissenschaftliche Bezüge einbettet, verfolgt dabei mehrere Ziele: Es sensibilisiert für die Thematik der soziologischen Suizidforschung und schafft einen Informationsgewinn hinsichtlich der Suizidmortalität in der DDR über Raum und Zeit hinweg.
