Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Wissen und Information, Note: 1,7, Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule Aachen (Institut für Soziologie), Veranstaltung: Bildungssoziologie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Seit den Ergebnissen "der PISA-Studie der OECD" (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) wird die Qualität von Bildung erneut kritisch betrachtet. Neben der qualitativen Sichtweise von Bildung wird auch die "ökonomische Bedeutung von Bildung" (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) immer stärker diskutiert. Ausgangspunkt dieser Diskussion ist die Grundthese der Humankapitaltheorie, wonach sich die Produktivität eines Arbeiters dann erhöht, wenn Investitionen in das Humankapital z.B. durch Ausbildung vorgenommen werden (vgl. Sesselmeier & Blauermel 1998: 66). Eine höhere Produktivität führt im Regelfall zu steigendem Einkommen, was sowohl "für die Person" (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 8) selbst, aber auch für die gesamte "Gesellschaft" (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 9) von Vorteil ist. Mit dem Konzept der Bildungsrenditen wurde nun ein Konzept geschaffen, mit dem der ökonomische Wert von Bildung geschätzt werden kann. Durch diese Schätzungen wird ein direkter Vergleich von Investitionen und Erträgen ermöglicht. Aus diesem Vergleich kann dann eine Entscheidung resultieren, ob sich eine weitere Schulausbildung für einen Akteur lohnt oder ob ein Eintritt in die berufliche Ausbildung sinnvoller ist. Eine zweite Möglichkeit zur Nutzung dieser Schätzung reicht bis hin zu einem internationalen Vergleich der Bildungserträge. Durch die Berechnung von Bildungsrenditen in verschiedenen Ländern kann direkt verglichen werden, in welchem Land höhere Erträge und in welchem Land geringere Erträge bei gleicher Schulbildung zu erwarten sind. Besonders im Hinblick auf unsere "sich globalisierenden Welt" (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) ist dies entscheidend wichtig, um dem internationalen Wettbewerb standzuhalten. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Berechnung

These are weekly Sunday sermons for the first half of the liturgical year, Series B. They follow the ILCW (Inter Lutheran Commission on Worship) pericopes with a few changes suggested by Christian Worship: A Lutheran Hymnal (1993). These sermons may be read for personal meditation or as a commentary on the text. Small groups or house churches may find them very useful as well. They might also be used in "lay-led" worship services when a qualified pastor is not present to write and preach a sermon of his own. These sermons were written and preached by the author of this volume while serving God''s people at Epiphany Lutheran Church of Racine, WI, Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church of Nelson, WI, and Our Redeemer Lutheran Church of Wabasha, MN. The cover art is on display at Water of Life Lutheran Church of Racine, WI. It was painted by Melanie Pope Schuette. Grace and Our Redeemer Lutheran Churches lend their names to this series. The author deeply appreciates the kindness and loving support he has always received from those church members who have sat at his feet and listened to these messages -- messages which are only meant to convey Grace From Our Redeemer.

This book is an autobiography of my life on this planet during the last seventy years. It didn''t start out that way, it just sort of developed as I went along. Originally I started out to write a novel about a young man leaving home and joining the armed forces to travel the world and expand his mind, at other people''s expense of course. At some point fate took over and this is the result, a huge step four! My childhood and subsequent addictions and compulsions are mentioned quite a bit as the book progresses but this is not meant to be a trip down the roads of self-pity and blame, it is more of an exploration of what it was like, what happened, and what it is like now. Enjoy.
