Eva Lingg präsentiert verschiedene Gestaltungslogiken, die beim Neubau von Hochschulen aufeinandertreffen. Sie stellt vor, wie sich diese in Planungsverfahren einbringen lassen und schließlich in der Materialisierung sichtbar werden. Die Autorin identifiziert entscheidende Faktoren und Momente in solchen Planungsverfahren und präsentiert Gestaltungshinweise für die zukünftige Planung von Bildungsbauten, die eine architektonische Entsprechung von neuen Lehr‐und Lernkonzepten, zeitgemäßen Arbeitsformen und erweiterten Formen der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Forschung und Lehre bzw. den unterschiedlichen Fachbereichen finden sollen. Vielfach erfordert dies auch neue Standorte, die sowohl Platz für die Hochschulentwicklung bieten, als auch den Institutionen neue Strahlkraft verleihen sollen. Der Inhalt · Architektur als Übersetzungsprozess · Planungsgeschichte FHS St. Gallen, der FH Campus Wien und des Toni Areal Zürich · Die Gestaltungslogiken der beteiligten Akteure · Sozialräumlicher Blick auf Planungsverfahren Die Zielgruppen · Dozierende und Studierende der Pädagogik und Soziologie · &n bsp; ArchitektInnen, StadtplanerInnen und SozialraumforscherInnen Die Autorin Eva Lingg ist Architektin und arbeitet als Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Kompetenzzentrum Soziale Räume der FHS St. Gallen.

Higher education institutions play an important role as leaders in knowledge creation and dissemination by setting the grounds for society to advance and to improve welfare. Despite the long-standing tradition of some higher education systems, Higher Education continuously evolves to adapt to the challenges that current societies open up to. The objective of this book is to capture some recent advances made in Higher Education by addressing these challenges. To do so, some specific topics related to the inputs, outputs and process of education in Higher Education were selected to be analysed by a scientific research approach. The book is arranged in five parts in accordance with these topics. Part I is related to the most important input of higher education institutions, that is, students, and particularly to address students' preparation when they access higher education studies. The next three parts of the book analyse different aspects of the learning process that take place in Higher Education. Part II assesses student learning from different points of view. Part III contains two chapters on the creation and availability of resources in higher education institutions. Part IV describes and analyses some innovative teaching and learning methods. Finally, Part V consists of three chapters that deal with the relation of Higher Education with industry, which is the main destination of graduates.

This book examines the challenges of cross-professional comparisons and proposes new forms of performance assessment to be used in professions education. It addresses how complex issues are learned and assessed across and within different disciplines and professions in order to move the process of “performance assessment for learning” to the next level. In order to be better equipped to cope with increasing complexity, change and diversity in professional education and performance assessment, administrators and educators will engage in crucial systems thinking. The main question discussed by the book is how the required competence in the performance of students can be assessed during their professional education at both undergraduate and graduate levels. To answer this question, the book identifies unresolved issues and clarifies conceptual elements for performance assessment. It reviews the development of constructs that cross disciplines and professions such as critical thinking, clinical reasoning, and problem solving. It discusses what it means to instruct and assess students within their own domain of study and across various roles in multiple contexts, but also what it means to instruct and assess students across domains of study in order to judge integration and transfer of learning outcomes. Finally, the book examines what it takes for administrators and educators to develop competence in assessment, such as reliably judging student work in relation to criteria from multiple sources. "... the co-editors of this volume, Marcia Mentkowski and Paul F. Wimmers, are associated with two institutions whose characters are so intimately associated with the insight that assessment must be integrated with curriculum and instructional program if it is to become a powerful influence on the educational process ..." Lee Shulman, Stanford University.
