AbstractThe 2014 Farm Bill required farmers and landowners to make a set of one‐time, irrevocable decisions lasting for the duration of the farm bill. The decisions included the choice between three program alternatives with uncertain payments. To aid in making those decisions, the farm bill funded two key educational efforts: (a) the development of two online decision tools and (b) additional funding to support land grant institutions and extension systems to educate farmers through more traditional extension mediums, particularly in‐person meetings. This paper provides an evaluation of both types of farm bill education through two case studies.
The term Integrated School Day (ISD) refers to a school day in which extracurricular activities and children's care are organized at the school before and after lessons, and sometimes between lessons. In a three year project, the extracurricular activities consisted of two types of activities for each child as selected by the parents and child: 1) adult-supervised, mostly self-organized recreation and indoor and outdoor activities in the morning before school hours and/or in the afternoon after school hours, and 2) hobby clubs available for children to attend a few times per week to enrich the activities offered in the morning and afternoon. Seven schools with students in grades 1 - 9 (from age 7 to 15) participated in the 3 year ISD project. Activities organized at school significantly reduced the amount of unsupervised time spent by children. They also increased students' satisfaction with school as estimated by 89% of teachers. In lower grades (from 1 to 4, ages 7 to 10), children who participated in the ISD programme for three years showed lower incidence of internalizing problem behaviours such as anxiety than children in schools where this programme was not available. In middle grades (from 4 to 6, ages 10 to 12), participation in arts and crafts and music was related to children's higher prosocial behaviour, academic achievement, and working skills such as concentration and persistence. The chapter also describes the process which resulted in the school research project, and a collaboration of a researcher with politicians. The process affected Finnish school legislation. From the autumn of 2004, the law mandated that supervision of children's activities in the mornings and afternoons should be available for all first- and second-grade children and should be financially supported by the government. ; nonPeerReviewed

Auch im betrieblichen Umfeld kann die Ausbreitung radikalistischer, rassistischer und rechtsextremer Tendenzen beobachtet werden. Was kann die gewerkschaftliche Weiterbildung im Rahmen der politischen Erwachsenenbildung hiergegen unternehmen? In der Arbeiterkammer Oberösterreich wurde eine Seminarreihe mit dem Titel "Extremismus - Was tun?" konzipiert, die sich in erster Linie an Betriebsrätinnen und Betriebsräte richtet. In insgesamt acht Einzelveranstaltungen sollen die Problematik von Alltagsrassismus, eigenen Vorurteilen, neuen gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen und vor allem der Umgang mit diesen Herausforderungen im betrieblichen Umfeld erörtert werden. Der vorliegende Beitrag beschreibt die konzeptuellen Vorüberlegungen und Leitlinien der Bildungsarbeit der Arbeiterkammer und die Grundlagen, die Ausgestaltung und die Umsetzung dieses im Frühjahr 2016 gestarteten Erwachsenenbildungsprogramms. (DIPF/Orig.) ; The spread of radical, racist and right extremist tendencies can also be observed in the workplace. What can be done to combat this by union professional development as part of adult political education? A series of seminars entitled "Extremism – What to do?" was designed by the Upper Austria Chamber of Labour. This series is primarily directed at members of the works council. In a total of eight individual events, discussion will centre on the problems of everyday racism, one's own prejudices, new social developments and above all the way to deal with these challenges in the workplace. This article describes the preliminary concepts and guidelines for the Chamber of Labour's work in education and the fundamentals, organization and implementation of the adult education programme that started in spring 2016.

In the dynamic contemporary world, characterised by the ubiquitous presence of information and com-munication technologies, the role and tasks of higher education institutions and their links with the so-cial and economic environment keep changing. These institutions also undergo the process of digital transformation and actively respond to the needs of entrepreneurs. Blended learning – a solution which sees the value in building interpersonal relationships while taking advantage of e-learning tools – can significantly increase the availability of an institution's educational offering for the business sector.

"Viele Eltern nutzen mittlerweile recht selbstverständlich institutionalisierte Bildungsangebote unmittelbar vor und nach der Geburt bis zum Eintritt ihres Nachwuchses in die Krippe oder Kindertagesstätte. In einem Forschungsprojekt in der Region Südniedersachsen wurden in Kooperation mit sechs Familienbildungsstätten Elternbildungsprozesse in pädagogisch angeleiteten Eltern-Kind-Gruppen untersucht. Der Beitrag präsentiert Ergebnisse, die aus der Analyse von 21 leitfadengestützten Interviews mit Eltern aus laufenden Eltern-Kind-Gruppen hervorgegangen sind. Die Diskussion fokussiert das Zusammenwirken von Familienerziehung und non-formellen, institutionalisierten Bildungsangeboten. Im Hinblick auf ein zeitlich zunehmend früheres Aufsuchen von Bildungsinstitutionen wird diskutiert, wie Familien bereits in der frühen Familienphase öffentliche Bildungsorte zur Selbstvergewisserung in ihrem erzieherischen Handeln und in ihrer Identifikation als 'gute Eltern' nutzen. Ferner wird analysiert, inwieweit die Gruppe selbst zu einem etablierten Erfahrungsraum im Familienalltag wird. Dies könnte bedeuten, dass die Herstellungsleistungen im Sinne eines doing family oder doing parentship in besonderer Weise durch Formate der institutionellen Familienbildungsarbeit geprägt werden. Die Konstruktion von Familie und Öffentlichkeit als gegensätzliche soziale Sphären würde vor diesem Hintergrund an Eindeutigkeit verlieren." (Autorenreferat)

Youth violence is not a unique phenomenon, and, in fact, youth have been plagued with challenges throughout the centuries that have placed them at risk of violent tendencies. These challenges include poverty, inadequate healthcare, limited educational opportunities, exploitation, gender inequality, substance abuse, mental health concerns, homelessness, gang involvement, and family dysfunction. Further, these challenges are not unique to youth within the United States; however, these experiences may differ in terms of chronicity, intensity, and impact. In all youth, these challenges create stress and trauma that compromise well-being. This book explores the challenges that youth experience, and provides context to better understand the factors related, and contributing, to those issues. The chapters describing realistic and practical violence prevention and remediation programs, which are both innovative and effective, are particularly unique. Additionally, there are a number of chapters that discuss the latest technological advances in helping young people, as well as evidence-based assessments and evaluations to help those who work with young people understand the needs of at-risk youth
Education has a momentous and influential role in developing this country. The specific function of educational management may not be fully depended on the central government. In line with local autonomy era, local government (municipality) must also be able to initiate and play its extended role in order to enhance the educational quality at the local level. On the other hand the existence of higher education institutions at local levels, in particular those offering educational management or concentration on educational policy management, have to be able to develop their competencies to collaborate with the municipal educational offices towards further development and improvement of the educational quality at the local levels. This paper will explain several ways that can be done by the Educational Management or Administration in collaboration with the Municipal Educational and Cultural Office to initiate and play its extended role in order to enhance the educational quality at the local level.
