The focus of this Special Issue is aimed at enhancing the discussion of Engineering Education, particularly related to technological and professional learning. In the 21st century, students face a challenging demand: they are expected to have the best scientific expertise, but also highly developed social skills and qualities like teamwork, creativity, communication, or leadership. Even though students and teachers are becoming more aware of this necessity, there is still a gap between academic life and the professional world. In this Special Edition Book, the reader can find works tackling interesting topics such as educational resources addressing students’ development of competencies, the importance of final year projects linked to professional environments, and multicultural or interdisciplinary challenges.

Biographical note: Jöran Muuß-Merholz ist Diplom-Pädagoge mit einem Schwerpunkt auf Lernen und Lehren im digitalen Wandel. Er gilt als Experte und Wegbereiter für die Arbeit mit digitalen Materialien, insbesondere mit Open Educational Resources (OER). Long description: Lehrkräfte betätigen sich täglich als Remixkünstler_innen. Für guten Unterricht kombinieren sie Materialien aus verschiedenen Quellen, sodass sie auf die jeweilige Lernsituation, das jeweilige Lernbedürfnis zugeschnitten sind. Oft geschieht dies noch mithilfe von kopierten Papiervorlagen, Schere und Kleber; im Zeitalter des Internets spielen jedoch verstärkt digitale Materialien eine Rolle. Leicht können sie dem Netz entnommen und aufbereitet werden. Doch dabei drohen ständig technische Schwierigkeiten und urheberrechtliche Fallstricke. Das Praxisbuch zeigt schnelle Wege zu digitalen Materialien, die technisch einfach und rechtlich sauber genutzt werden können. Sogenannte Open Educational Resources (OER) helfen dabei, Unterrichtsmaterialien differenzierter und rechtssicher zu gestalten – und sind gleichzeitig vielfältig und kostenlos. Aus dem Inhalt: • Wirklich freie Unterrichtsmaterialien finden • Urheberrechtsverstöße und Abmahnungen vermeiden • OER selbst machen und teilen • Die besten Anlaufstellen für freie Arbeitsblätter, Bilder und Sounds • Tipps und Tricks für die Arbeit im Alltag Quote: »[...] kompakter, gut strukturierter und zielgruppengerechter Einstieg [...] mit praxisbezogenem Erfahrungswissen [...]. Den vielen Links lässt sich am Besten in der elektronischen Version folgen. Das Buch ist zudem vollständig als bearbeitbares Word- oder Open-Office-Dokument verfügbar« Henry Steinhau, iRights.info, 7.3.2018 »Jöran Muuß-Merholz gibt den Lesern einen sehr guten Überblick über das Themenfeld OER. Dabei steht immer der direkte Bezug zur (schulischen) Praxis im Vordergrund. Gerade Lehrer/innen sei das Werk daher empfohlen. [...] Unbedingt lesenswert.« Matthias Kostrzewa, matthias-kostrzewa.de, 16.3.2018 »Der Autor Jöran Muuß-Merholz ist ein ausgewiesener Fachmann für dieses Thema und hat sich auf das Lehren und Lernen in digitalen Zeiten spezialisiert. Das Buch bietet einen fundierten und praxisnahen Einblick in die Thematik mit umfangreichen Anregungen und Tipps.« Arthur Thömmes, lehrerbibliothek.de, 5/2018

This book analyses the problematics of archaeological heritage management in the Canary Islands, which are echoed in other parts of the world where the indigenous heritage is under-represented. The present-day management of Canarian archaeological heritage has a very specific and unusual context given that the archipelago is located on the fringes of Europe, belonging to Spain and therefore to the European Unión, but geographically and in terms of early history being part of Africa. From a theoretical perspective, then, the proposed book analyzes issues such as the effects of colonialism and eurocentrism on the management of the archaeological heritage. It also examines the evolutionist and historico-cultural models used to analyze past societies and, ultimately, used to create identities that influence archaeological heritage management itself. From a practical point of view, the book presents a proposal for enhancing the archaeological heritage of the Canary Islands through the creation of archaeological parks (providing some concrete examples in the case of the city of La Laguna) and the active involvement of the local community. Parallel to this, the book considers the Canarian Archipelago as part of a problematic that is not unique to this area but is an example of poor indigenous heritage management overall. It demonstrates how the course of history and the politics of the past still have an excessive influence on the way in which the present-day archaeological heritage is interpreted and managed. Therefore, this book provides an almost unique opportunity for uncovering the history of archaeology within the margins of Europe (in fact, in an African region) and exploring colonial and foreign influences. In many ways it is a mirror of archaeological mainstreams and an exercise in (re)thinking the aim and status of present-day archaeology.
