Praxis und Verhältnis interner und externer Evaluation im Schulsystem im internationalen Vergleich

The overview article deals with the interaction of internal and external evaluation within the current paradigm of school governance. The actual practice of both approaches and the current state of research about the effects on school development is described. Both evaluation approaches are less focused on aspects of school output such as student performance, and more on school processes such as school management or the quality of teaching. External evaluation in the form of school inspection mainly fulfills the function of accountability and the identification of weak schools. Internal evaluation is probably a better way to achieve school development. However, the necessary competence to use internal evaluation as a systematic process of quality management for which each individual school takes responsibility is currently underdeveloped. Considerations about the future relationship between internal and external evaluation focus on using external evaluation as a kind of “meta-evaluation”. But before external evaluation can build on results of internal evaluation in this way, a broad capacity building in schools and a different understanding of the role of inspectors are necessary.     

Sprachförderkompetenz pädagogischer Fachkräfte

This paper introduces the basics of a (psycho)linguistically-oriented model of language-training competences of educators in pre-school and elementary education. It specifies competence criteria for language intervention based on psycholinguistic research. Ultimately, these criteria will be useful for grounding the additional training of educators and for certifying competences in early language intervention.

Specific managerial human capital,firm age,and venture capital financing of biopharmaceutical ventures: A contingency approach

In this article we investigate how specific human capital in biopharmaceutical ventures' management teams impacts the financial commitment of venture capital investors. Further, we explore how this impact changes with the venture's age. We draw on data from 138 VC financing rounds in the US and Europe to show that biopharmaceutical ventures with greater portions of specific managerial human capital in the fields of management, law, medicine, and biosciences acquire more money in venture capital financing rounds, but this effect is contingent on the age of the venture. We discuss the implications of these findings for the literature on VC financing of high technology ventures.

Konzeptueller und logischer Data-Warehouse-Entwurf

Zusammenfassung. Im Data-Warehouse-Bereich gibt es sowohl auf der konzeptuellen als auch auf der logischen Ebene unterschiedliche Modellierungsansätze, deren Entwicklung sich in der Regel an typischen Fragestellungen aus dem Bereich des Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) orientierte. Daneben spielen aber auch andere Ansätze zur Analyse der Daten in einem Data Warehouse eine bedeutende Rolle. Ein wichtiger Vertreter ist Data Mining, mit dessen Hilfe bislang unbekannte Muster und Zusammenhänge in Daten identifiziert werden können. Im vorliegenden Artikel wird untersucht, inwieweit sich die in der Literatur vorgeschlagenen konzeptuellen Datenmodelle für ein Data Warehouse eignen, das OLAP- und Data-Mining-Analysen gleichermaßen unterstützt. Hierzu wird das COCOM-Modell, das auf den Modellierungsmöglichkeiten verschiedener publizierter Modelle aufbaut, vorgestellt und bewertet. Für das logische Schema eines Data Warehouse wird häufig ein sogenanntes Star-Schema oder ein Snowflake-Schema erstellt. Für diese und weitere Schematypen wird analysiert, welchen Einfluss die Wahl des logischen Schemas auf Anwendungen aus den Bereichen OLAP und Data Mining hat. Wichtige Kriterien sind hier unter anderem der Informationsgehalt und die Performanz. Insgesamt zeigt dieser Beitrag, dass das COCOM-Modell und das Star-Schema eine gute Grundlage für den integrierten Einsatz von OLAP und Data-Mining bilden.Eingegangen am 30.
