This document discusses a study on the impact of cultural diversity in student teams on the learning process in student-centered learning. The study examined three higher education programs with culturally diverse student populations. Observations and interviews found that cultural diversity can benefit learning by exposing students to different perspectives and experiences, but it can also complicate information exchange due to differences in language skills, communication styles, and backgrounds. The document recommends developing policies to create diverse teams, raising awareness of cultural differences, focusing on inclusive learning conditions, and ensuring strong English language competencies.
The European research project OPULL – Opening Universities for Lifelong Learning is investigating the possibilities for strengthening lifelong learning at institutions of higher education. This includes opening universities to professionally and vocationally qualified people who are in employment and/or have no academic qualifications as well as to those without higher education entrance certificates. It also involves recognising competencies and skills acquired through non-formal or informal learning towards higher education degrees.
This document discusses a study on teachers' and students' attitudes towards promoting multilingualism at the University of Alexandru Ioan Cuza (UAIC) in Iasi, Romania. The study used interviews and questionnaires with teachers and students to understand perspectives on introducing more multilingual classes. While Romania and the UAIC have a monolingual policy and teach primarily in Romanian, some support expanding foreign language instruction, especially in English. Results showed obstacles to multilingual teaching included lack of teacher competence, financial means, and student interest, with some comfort in sticking to instruction only in Romanian.

This document discusses a proposed research study that will analyze how intonation patterns in Spanish affect English spoken by Spanish speakers. Specifically, it will look at how Spanish intonation patterns influence English tag questions. The study will select 4 Spanish-speaking English language learners at the B2 level to observe their speaking tasks, recordings, and interviews. It will use a case study approach and data triangulation to compare observations with interviews and tasks. The goal is to determine which aspects of Spanish phonology influence English intonation acquisition and identify differences in intentions between Spanish and English tag questions.

Eco-nomics, The hidden costs of consumptionJosh Beatty
Joe, an average consumer, spends $25,000 annually on goods and consumes $100,000 worth of natural resources, but he only pays the direct retail costs and is unaware of the various hidden environmental, health, and security costs associated with production and transportation. These hidden costs—which include pollution cleanup, resource depletion, subsidies, and climate change impacts—add up to over $1 trillion annually for U.S. consumers. The document urges people to reduce their consumption, support sustainable businesses, and make more informed choices to limit these hidden costs that will otherwise be passed on to future generations.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
What REALLY Differentiates The Best Content Marketers From The RestRoss Simmonds
The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. Researchers analyzed data from dozens of countries and found that lockdowns led to an average decline of nearly 30% in nitrogen dioxide levels over cities. However, they also observed that this improvement was temporary and air pollution rebounded once lockdowns were lifted as vehicle traffic increased again. Overall, the study highlights how lockdowns can provide short-term benefits to air quality but sustained changes are needed to maintain those improvements.

Geert Driessen & Hetty Dekkers (2008) ISSJ Dutch policies on socio-ecomic and...Driessen Research
Dutch policies targeting educational disadvantages
have not only been guided by the changing
political colour of the government, but also by
social, economic, demographic, cultural and
political developments both nationally and
internationally (Karsten and Meijnen 2005). In
the 1960s attention was primarily paid to the
unfavourable position of working-class children.
Under the influence of democratisation
processes, a society with more egalitarian
and meritocratic principles
was aimed at with the reasoning
that positions in society
should be acquired only on
the basis of personal competence.
One’s socio-economic
background should play no
role in this and so education
was given a key function in
this process.
From the 1980s onwards,
large numbers of children
of immigrants from former
colonies, of so-called guest
workers and asylum seekers
and refugees streamed into
the Dutch educational system.
1 It quickly became
apparent that these children
lagged significantly behind
other children in a number
of subjects. Although their results have
improved somewhat over the past decades,
immigrant pupils are still behind when compared
with white middle-class pupils.
The concern on the problems facing workingclass
children has largely disappeared into the
background as a result of the immense amount
of attention being paid to the plight of minority
children, although the position of workingclass
children in The Netherlands is still very
worrying.

This document discusses the challenge of developing civic education in schools to prepare students for active citizenship. It argues that civic education needs to go beyond single subjects and involve the entire school community. It proposes an approach called "democratic learning" where students gain experience participating in democratic processes throughout their education. This helps students develop democratic competencies and the ability to address complex global issues. The document outlines 14 theses on how schools can create a learning environment that promotes civic participation and commitment among students. It emphasizes that the school must support democratic learning for citizenship education to be effective.

This study analyzed data from a large-scale longitudinal study of language proficiency in Dutch primary schools. It examined differences in language proficiency and background characteristics between pupils from various linguistic backgrounds, including Dutch, Turkish/Moroccan, Frisian, Limburgish, and dialects. The study developed a causal model to analyze how factors like parents' education and language use at home influence pupils' developing language proficiency from ages 7-10.
This document discusses a study on the impact of cultural diversity in student teams on the learning process in student-centered learning. The study examined three programs at Maastricht University and found that cultural diversity can both positively and negatively impact the learning process. Diversity can benefit learning by exposing students to different perspectives and experiences, but can also make information exchange more complicated due to differences in language, communication styles, and backgrounds. Both students and teachers may have unconscious biases or generalizations about other cultures that could influence interactions. The document recommends developing policies to create diverse teams, raising awareness of cultural differences, and ensuring strong English language skills.

It describes a course called "Community, Self and Identity" that brought students from psychology, social work, and occupational therapy together using workshops, online activities, and group projects. Student feedback was overwhelmingly positive and the research team published numerous papers on the project's aims, processes, and outcomes. The project provided an innovative approach for students to engage with issues of diversity and difference across disciplinary and institutional boundaries.

The document presents research comparing cultural characteristics of learners in different educational contexts in Germany, finding that while national cultures may exist, concepts of a single general national culture are misleading and not helpful for design-oriented research, as educational contexts like higher education and adult/professional education showed different cultural patterns even within the same country. Research contrasting university cultures in Germany, South Korea, and characteristics of German professional training found significant variations rather than uniform national cultures.

This document summarizes a study that analyzed data on 14,000 Dutch 2nd grade students to examine the relationship between immigrant children's use of their mother tongue and their proficiency in Dutch. The study found that two-thirds of immigrant children speak their mother tongue in at least one context, such as with family. Additionally, the more often immigrant children spoke their mother tongue, the lower their proficiency tended to be in Dutch. The study controlled for factors like mothers' country of birth, education level, and language skills, which all correlated with children's lower scores on standardized Dutch language tests compared to children with Dutch-speaking parents.
