Für erwachsene ehemalige "PISA-Risikoschüler" und -schülerinnen bestätigen Forschungsstudien wiederkehrend die Feststellung, dass diese Personengruppe nicht über die funktionalen Lesekompetenzen - "vor dem Komma" - verfügt und daher linear-kausal höchstwahrscheinlich nicht in sämtlichen Lebensbereichen teilhaben kann. Erlauben jedoch die psychometrischen Tests tatsächlich eine Aussage über die Inklusion in Arbeit im Beschäftigungssystem der tätigkeitsbezogenen qualifizierten Arbeitsplätze? Kann die Relation von Bildung und Teilhabe (in Arbeit) lediglich über den Voraussetzungscharakter von Bildung erschlossen werden? Dieser übergeordneten Perspektive folgend, wird das Lesen kulturwissenschaftlich verortet und werden die dahinterliegenden Verarbeitungsmodelle von arbiträren Zeichen erweitert, um textuellen Anforderungen on-the-job überhaupt ressourcenorientiert empirisch nachgehen zu können. Abschließende empirische Studien beschäftigen sich mit der Annäherung, ob "PISA-Risikoschüler" und -schülerinnen über die Lesekompetenz multikodaler Texte und Textkomplexe (aus zuvorderst kategorialen Tabellen, Grafiken etc. und einzelnen Wörtern bis kurzen Absätzen) verfügen, mit denen sie sich in einer Auswahl von Arbeitsplätzen konfrontiert sehen.

Geographic information systems (GISs) have played a vital role in Earth sciences by providing a powerful means of observing the world and various tools for solving complex problems. The scientific community has used GISs to reveal fascinating details about the Earth and other planets. This book on recent advances in GIS for Earth sciences includes 12 publications from esteemed research groups worldwide. The research and review papers in this book belong to the following broad categories: Earth science informatics (geoinformatics), mining, hydrology, natural hazards, and society.

Research & information: general --- mine safety --- GIS-coupled --- spatiotemporal model --- LBM --- methane gas emission --- traffic flows --- taxi trajectory --- float cars --- spatial community --- transport system --- land use --- multi-functionality --- production-living-ecology function --- spatiotemporal dynamics --- obstacle factors --- Xiangxi --- DEM grid cell size --- efficiency --- mountainous watersheds --- optimized parameter set --- TOPMODEL --- social media --- rainstorm event --- spatiotemporal analysis --- factor assessing --- parallel algorithm --- map overlay analysis --- Hilbert ordering decomposition --- spatial analysis --- GIS vector map data --- GIS vector map security --- selective encryption --- simplification method and cryptography --- geo-sensor framework --- geo-sensor platform (GIS) --- sensor networks --- do-it-yourself (DIY) --- landslide susceptibility mapping --- ensemble techniques --- functional trees --- bagging --- rotation forest --- dagging --- algorithm --- cognition --- computer languages --- eye-tracking measurement --- gaze tracking --- human-computer interaction --- open source software --- symbols --- visualisation --- Geographic information systems --- mine planning --- mine development --- mine operation --- environmental management --- mine reclamation --- Indian Himalayas --- landslides --- GIS --- remote sensing

In the last two decades, we have witnessed the evolution of the energy sector. Many countries throughout the world have been shifting their energy production methods from fossil fuel use to more environmentally friendly methods. These methods are described by the term “Renewable Energy Methods” and entail the production of energy from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) based on wind, water, biomass, solar energy, and geothermal energy. This shift is mainly driven by the increase in public awareness of environmental problems and climate change, which are both related to the increase in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. The main goal of this Special Issue is to determine methodologies that can be applied in education in order to raise the awareness of students as well as their families about issues related to renewable sources and energy conservation. Furthermore, the authors studied the factors, parameters, and criteria that affect the decision-making involved in the selection of appropriate types of renewable energy sources in order to select the optimal form, both financially and environmentally. Finally, an attempt is made to recognize methods for communicating the usage of RES and energy savings to the public. Such communication methods are necessary because, in many communities, there are issues surrounding the acceptance of RES installation, as the public considers them to be factors of environmental degradation.

The bioeconomy concept aims to add sustainability to the production, transformation, and trade of biological goods. Though implemented around the world, the development of national bioeconomies is uneven, especially in the global South, where major challenges exist in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this context, the international BiomassWeb project aimed to underpin the bioeconomy concept by applying the value web approach, which seeks to uncover complex interlinked value webs instead of linear value chains. The project also aimed to develop intervention options to strengthen and optimize the synergies and trade-offs among different value chains. The Special Issue “Advances in Food and Non-Food Biomass Production, Processing and Use in Sub-Saharan Africa: Toward a Basis for a Regional Bioeconomy"" compiles 23 articles produced in this framework. The articles are grouped in four sections: the value web approach; the production side; processing, transformation and trade; and global views.
