Dieses Open-Access-Buch präsentiert ein praxistheoretisches Konzept, das die Analyse verschiedener Aspekte und Formen kollektiven Handelns ermöglicht. Im Zentrum steht die Erweiterung des Handlungsverständnisses bei Anthony Giddens für Kollektive. Dabei werden Ansätze der Klassiker, der Organisations- und Bewegungsforschung sowie der jüngeren Debatten in Sozialtheorie und Philosophie integriert und miteinander verbunden. Heute wird eine neue Vielfalt an Formen kollektiven Handelns thematisiert, traditionelle Formen werden dagegen in Frage gestellt. Die vorgeschlagene Grundidee lautet: Lösen wir uns vom bisherigen Fokus auf stabile Kollektivakteure, gerät die fragile Praxis kollektiven Handelns in den Blick. Praxistheorien erhalten derzeit große Aufmerksamkeit. Sie haben zur Handlungsfähigkeit von Kollektiven bislang jedoch wenig zu sagen. Das Buch füllt diese Leerstelle und hat dabei stets die Anwendbarkeit für empirische Analysen im Blick.​

In this book, the reader will find a selection of avant-garde research works from different disciplines and contexts, which have their epicenter in the school and in the faculties of education. New issues in pedagogy and education, and new roles of teachers and students, are discussed in a global and diverse context.

As with most dynamic activities that are based on social and cultural contexts and rely on interactions, education is a complex and often ambiguous endeavor. Despite this complexity, scholars and educators are often required to find ways of defining and explaining what ""good"" teaching is and to incorporate these conclusions into teacher education. This book contains eight scholarly articles from various countries around the world and offers unique and up-to-date perspectives on relevant practices and pedagogies for teachers' professional education and development. In this international book, it is argued that there is a significant inspiration and enrichment to be gained by investigating the policies and practices of teacher education systems from all over the world.

There are several teaching sports approaches for school-age sports practitioners. However, relatively few models have a substantial theoretical and scientific foundation. In this sense, the present work aims to serve as an introduction on which to support the didactical process of a Non-Linear Pedagogy of games teaching, as described in the first chapter. A comparison between the traditional approach of sports teaching and the Teaching Games for Understanding model within the Slovak Republic context is exposed. Subsequently, experience in the Sport Education model in Finland is presented. Then, research regarding teachers' experiences with the Cooperative Learning model at different ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds is developed. Finally, an example of the Non-Linear Pedagogy program is used in Malaysia.
