Ausgangsproblematik: Durch einseitige, oft triviale und wenig wissenschaftlich fundierte Orientierung an Einzelaspekten aus der kindlichen Lebenswelt und methodenzentriertes, weniger inhaltlich legitimiertes Praktizieren reformpädagogischer Konzepte läuft der Sachunterricht als elementarer (lebens-)weltkundlicher Lernbereich in der Grundschule aktuell Gefahr, Grundschüler potentiell zu unterfordern und wenig anschlussfähiges Orientierungswissen zu vermitteln. Um die Lernbereitschaft und Lernfähigkeit von Anfang an zu fördern, muss der Sachunterricht lebensweltliche und wissenschaftsbezogene Fragen stärker vernetzen und nicht nur methodisch, sondern auch inhaltlich anspruchsvoll sein. Zielsetzung: Orientiert an den Richtlinien für den Sachunterricht in NRW soll exemplarisch für das lebensweltlich wie ökologisch relevante Themenfeld „Boden als Lebensgrundlage“ eine internetbasierte Hypermedia-Arbeitsumgebung entwickelt werden, die fachliche Grundlagen, fachdidaktische Anforderungen und lerntheoretische Erkenntnisse inhalts- und prozessbezogen so integriert, dass sie von Lehrern und Schülern gleichermaßen für interaktive Prozesse der Wissensorganisation genutzt werden kann. Ziel ist die Konzeption und Konstruktion eines inhaltlich wie methodisch anspruchsvollen und wissenschaftlich fundierten Instrumentariums, das eine multimedial fundierte Planung und Organisation entsprechender Unterrichtsprozesse ermöglicht. Curricularer Einsatz: in der Lehrerbildung (Universität und Vorbereitungsdienst), zur Unterrichtsvorbereitung für Lehramtsanwärter und Lehrer, im Unterrichtsprozess. Zielgruppe sind nicht nur die (angehenden) Lehrerinnen und Lehrer, die für den Sachunterricht in der Primarstufe verantwortlich sind, sondern auch die Biologielehrerinnen und -lehrer in der Sekundarstufe I. Emissionsmedium: Internet Konzeption: Die Projektkonzeption basiert auf aktuellen bildungspolitischen, lerntheoretischen und fachdidaktischen Grundanforderungen, deren zentralen Aspekte nachfolgend zusammengefasst sind. ...

The National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) promotes education and outreach as part of its mission to increase the public understanding of science. NCEAS developed Kids Do Ecology (KDE) in 1997 as the primary component of its outreach to grade school students. Kids do Ecology includes both this Website and a Scientist in the Classroom Program. The original focus of the KDE program was the development of the web site to teach elementary school students about ecology, experiments, and use of data. The KDE web is frequently reviewed and recommended, and continues to be heavily used in the United States and abroad. School and library web sites, teachers' organizations, scientific organizations, and many other institutions link to it from their web sites. In order to expand the reach of the site and address the needs of Spanish speaking children here in Santa Barbara, as well as nationally, a Spanish language version of the site is available. ...

BioPhysika ist ein von Studierenden gestaltetes Projekt mit eigener Webpräsenz seit Oktober 2010. Seitdem hat sich BioPhysika mehrmals umorientiert. Zu Beginn ein Austauschprojekt für die Studiengänge Biophysik und Biochemie, später ein Portal für alle sich überschneidenden naturwissenschaftlichen Studiengänge. Die Studiengewohnheiten von Kommilitonen am Frankfurter Unicampus Riedberg dienten als Inspirationsquelle. Heute stehen der barrierefreie Zugang zu Lernressourcen und Recherchefähigkeiten im Fokus, entsprechende Realisierungen sind das auf dieser Webpräsenz gepflegte Linkarchiv und ein regelmäßig veranstalteter Bioinformatik-Crashkurs. ...
