Item type:Publication, Systems thinking among students in sustainability programs(2026-07) ;Kordts, Robert ;Kopainsky, BirgitThis study explores how to assess systems thinking (ST) competencies among students enrolled in sustainability-related higher education programs, with a focus on both cognitive and affective dimensions. Building on recent discussions in sustainability pedagogy, we evaluate the applicability of two existing questionnaires-Davis & Stroink (2016) and Camelia & Ferris (2018)-in interdisciplinary, non-STEM settings. Data from 65 master's students at the University of Bergen, Norway, were analyzed. Results indicate that while both instruments are usable, the affective subscales demonstrate lower reliability, which constrains their validity. Findings suggest that gender and age may be associated with certain ST dimensions, while disciplinary background is not. We argue that assessing ST before or early in courses can support curriculum design and counteract instructor assumptions about student competencies. This study provides practical insights for educators and contributes to ongoing efforts to refine assessment tools in sustainability education.Type:journal articleJournal:die hochschullehreVolume:12Issue:26 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Buzzwords und Mythen in der PädagogikIn education, arguments are often made using buzzwords that sound trendy and catchy, not least because they are repeated so often, but on closer inspection remain vague. This harbors dangers that we should be aware of.Type:journal articleJournal:PÄDAGOGIKVolume:76Issue:1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Educational Myths Debunked. Insights into the Development, Implementation, and Evaluation of a Course for University FacultyThis article discusses Educational Myths Debunked 101 (EMD101), a further education course designed to help university faculty identify, analyze, and debunk myths about teaching and learning in higher education. Based on educational psychological findings, EMD101 covers the theoretical basics such as characteristics, causes, consequences, and handling of educational myths. Through an emancipatory, transfer-oriented, and reflective approach the course enables instructors to critically evaluate potential questionable teaching beliefs and practices in higher education. The paper details the course objectives, content, and includes a critical review of its strengths and weaknesses, suggesting areas for future improvement.Type:journal articleJournal:Zeitschrift für Hochschulentwicklung (Journal for Higher Education Development)Volume:20Issue:1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, “We don’t need no thought control”: dealing with faculty members spreading conspiracy theoriesRecent studies reveal that a significant proportion of the population in various countries endorses at least some form of conspiracy theory (CT). Notably, there have been instances of faculty members spreading CTs, despite their pedagogical obligations to foster academic and scientific thinking. While the existing literature has predominantly focused on student populations, an examination of less-studied cohorts such as faculty members seems necessary. This theoretical article delves into the prevalence, underlying factors, and ramifications of CTs within the context of higher education. The present analytic article distinguishes CTs from scientific theories, elucidates the detrimental consequences for individuals and the broader society engendered by the uncritical propagation of CTs, and scrutinizes the responsibilities of students and faculty in mitigating the dissemination of misinformation. Moreover, the article posits potential solutions from both student and faculty standpoints to counteract the proliferation of CTs in higher education.Type:journal articleJournal:Higher Education - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Reimagining Teaching Portfolios Through Personal Knowledge Management with Digital Tools for Thought(2025-10-08); ;Lohner, DavidArnold, MaikIn higher education, teaching portfolios are instruments for faculty professionalization and academic development. Many lecturers struggle to systematically document, evaluate and further develop their teaching practices. We argue that teaching is knowledge work requiring intentional knowledge management. We explore how digital Tools for Thought (TfTs) support personal knowledge management (PKM), enabling lecturers to externalize, link, and reflect on teaching-related knowledge and materials. Using TfTs, teaching portfolios transform from static repositories into dynamic systems fostering critical reflection and evidence-informed professional development. Drawing on educational psychology research, we demonstrate how PKM practices can boost teaching competence.Type:journal articleJournal:Zeitschrift für Hochschulentwicklung (Journal for Higher Education Development)Volume:20Issue:3 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Eine qualitative Bewertung der Stärken und Schwächen deutschsprachiger Erklärvideos im Pflegebereich(2024-06) ;Marcel Scherrer; ;Josef BuchnerMichael KerresFor nursing education and training, numerous explanatory videos are available on the widely used video streaming platform YouTube. However, the videos are published largely uncontrolled, and they are characterized by a great heterogeneity. Teachers and learners are often faced with the question of which video is most suitable from the extensive list of results in a search. The focus of this study is the qualitative design of explainer videos, since even subject-specific content must be presented appropriately in order to increase the likelihood of learning progress. For the qualitative evaluation of three explanatory videos each on the nursing topics of infusion preparation and 30-degree positioning, a cross-disciplinary analysis grid is used that considers pedagogical-didactic, (instructional) psychological, and film-analytical features. The results of the empirical investigation show a mixed quality of explanatory videos for nursing. The evaluated explanatory videos each consider the quality criteria to varying extents and hardly fulfill (media) pedagogical-didactic quality criteria. The authors discuss why the explanatory videos are suitable for different target groups and how (instructional) psychological and film design criteria intertwine.Type:journal articleJournal:MedienPädagogik Zeitschrift für Theorie und Praxis der MedienbildungIssue:Occasional Papers - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, The Fine art of Detecting Sciencewashing: Definition, Consequences, Forms & Prevention(2023); Sciencewashing is a deliberate action to simulate scientific practices or quality assurance to deceive others. It occurs in various areas, e.g., the beauty marketing or the nutritional supplement industry. In this guest article, Stefan T. Siegel and Jannes Terdenge elaborate on the question of what sciencewashing is and why it can be a challenge for science communication.Type:journal articleJournal:Journal Trends und Themen aus der Wissenschaftskommunikation - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
