        Mobbing in der Schule: Ursache, Auswirkung und Prävention

        by Sasse, Dr. Stephanie

        The term ‘bullying’ has been receiving a lot of attention in Germany since the early 1990s. The media often report stories about this targeted oppression and hassling. However, this is mostly limited to bullying at the workplace and thus the adult world. Unfortunately, bullying has started to take place increasingly among children and teenagers throughout the last years. Since then, the question has been what bullying looks like in schools and what impacts it has. The phenomenon, hardly known among pupils so far, is difficult to notice. Parents experience an increasingly withdrawn and isolated child und may be confronted with a lack of enthusiasm for school, or active refusal to attend school. In at least 50% of cases the cause remains obscure, because children decide not to speak out for fear of not being able to make the situation at school any better. Since having first been diagnosed in Sweden in the early 70s, bullying as social aggression among students has received considerable attention in research and in the media (see Schäfer, w/o year). According to Mechthild Schäfer, bullying is a part of pupils’ culture, as in German schools at least one child out of ten is bullied, and more than one out of ten bullies other children. However, it is still questionable which dimensions bullying really reaches and which causes can be held accountable for the phenomenon. The question most relevant for Heitmeyer and Schröttle (2006, p. 189) is whether school as an institution with its structures actually promotes violence, or whether it ‘only’ facilitates it by creating opportunities for violence. The authors are of the opinion that a combination of prevention and the improvement of school quality are vital. This book will first review the way bullying is defined in literature and what its causes are, before introducing preventative measures.

        DYSLEXIA DISMANTLED

        A practical breakdown of the myths and realities of dyslexia

        by Laughton King

        Finally, an insightful, clear and practical breakdown of the realities of dyslexia, from the author’s own life experience. This exposition of the thinking, learning and living style that characterise the dyslexic individual is written equally for the educator, the parent and the struggling dyslexic himself. Eighteen myths dispelled, 61 personal characteristics outlined, and a raft of indicators examined, this book will help a large section of the population understand their own normality, their own intact and integrated thinking style, and allow them to take positive charge of their learning processes and their functioning in society. There is nothing wrong with their brain wiring, they are not deficient, they do not need medication. As a diesel motor differs from a petrol engine, the so-called ‘dyslexic’ differs from the non-dyslexic in a simple and rudimentary way. The Western world has a modern education system based around language as the prime learning tool – teaching, learning and assessment are typically language-based. The ‘dyslexic’ person is disadvantaged in this system, not only because is he a pictorial thinker, but because of a lesser capacity to use 'internal dialogue', he is unable to process the language-based education system at a competitive level.

        Raising Your Kids to Be High Achievers

        by Hiroaki Enomoto

        ●Newly graduate employees lacking perseverance to fit in the work environment We often hear difficulties of managing new and young employees who get depressed easily when they are scolded by their bosses and sometimes they don’t even come to work from the next day. Some young employees do not obey the instructions and do not try to make improvements in work. Violence in Japanese elementary schools has been on the rise, which indicates how children communicate with each other is also changing. The early-age education gives certain effects on children such as helping them to enter prestigious schools, but these effects do not last. Furthermore, children nowadays have less opportunities to learn independence and diversity through playing with friends, experiencing the nature and making adventures. From the perspectives of parenting and career development, the book focuses on the competitive skills that young people should acquire to do better in real world.   ●Need of non-cognitive skills, such as self-control. James Heckman, who won the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 2000, proved in his over 40 years of studies that early education had the temporal effect on increasing intellectual capacity. However, he concludes that it is not the only factor leading to have good educational background and high-income career. In fact, the early education has lost its effects on building the cognitive skills (intellectual capacity) by the age of eight. Looking at the data after reaching adulthood, however, those who received early education had higher educational degree and annual income. It suggests that acquiring non-cognitive skills such as cooperating with others, having patience and motivation are keys to success after the early education. To develop non-cognitive skills in childhood, parents need to have the attitude to wait for their children to reach a conclusion by themselves, and think together with them. This book is convincing because it discusses parenting based on the latest findings in psychology and pedagogy, while emphasizing on the need of fostering patience, cooperativeness, and independence of children. This is a must-read book for parents who want to find clues on raising their toddlers and elementary school children.

        Understanding Childrens Needs When Parents Separate

        by Di Elliott, Emilia Dowling

        One in four children experiences the separation/divorce of their parents by the time they reach 16 years. When parents separate levels of conflict can be high and significant changes in family relationships continue to take place over time. Whilst in emotional distress themselves, parents often manage to pay attention to the needs of their children and it is this parental support which helps children and young people through this transition. When emotions are heightened for the adults, however, there are occasions when the needs of the children can be easily overlooked. Throughout this time of turmoil and bereavement it is often the school that provides the children with a secure base. This practical resource will provide schools with a comprehensive understanding of the needs of children and how it is possible to work with them and their families to face the challenging times in their lives.
