Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
In the face of globalization, the question arises which didactic and educational strategy based on self-responsibility is best suited for dissemination of a science-based humanitarian culture.
This chapter reflects one pedagogic approach to strengthen self-responsibility within students, namely the approach “Surfing Global Change” (SGC,© G. Ahamer) which relies on dialogue while confronting learners with their peers – a much-needed training event when it comes to real-live professional situations.
This article portrays the 5-level rule structure and offers graphic implementation and moreover some results on emerging social dynamics within student groups.
This method is suitable for advanced physics students in any transdisciplinary setting.
