“Bildungsr ume für die ‘Wissensgesellschaft’!” P dagogisch-philosophische Kennzeichnungen für die modernen technisierten Gesellschaften unter Einbeziehung neuerer Befunde qualitativempirischer Bildungs- und Unterrichtsforschung

Which approaches to learning and formation of knowledge (’Bildungsr ume’) and understanding exist in today’s technologically oriented ‘knowledge society’ and which approaches will be required to sustain this society? Guided by the analysis of three key terms on this topic ‘knowledge’, ‘learning’ and ‘orientation’, I am investigating the pedagogical and philosophical aspects and extracting the type of knowledge and Bildung that will be needed. Furthermore, I outline additional pedagogical research themes. This investigation includes recent qualitative and empirical research, as well as neglected approaches of Plato’s philosophy.
