In this episode, we (Mark Raffler and Sarah Shoemaker) connect with Dr. Karen Mapp, a Senior Lecturer on Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) and former Faculty Director of the HGSE Education Policy and Management Master's Program.  Dr. Mapp has authored several books on Family Engagement Partnerships - Her latest book:  Everyone Wins!:  The Evidence for Family-School Partnerships & Implications for Practice is the focus of our podcast today.  Here is a quick brief of our conversation: Sarah starts the dialogue with Dr. Mapp by prompting her to tell us about use of the term family-school partnerships in her work.   She shares the co-designed working definition of family engagement developed by State Department of Education, families, and educators in Connecticut - “Family Engagement is a full, equal, and equitable partnership among the adult caregivers, community members, and practioners.”  Dr. Karen Mapp talks about the relational trust that is required for full partnership.  Mark adds to the dialogue by asking:  “What are some key ideas to keep in mind in relation family engagement?” Dr. Mapp leans into Larry Ferlazzo's words - “Family Engagment leads with our ears.”  She describes how the partnership builds trust by listening and talking with families - instead of talking at families.  Dr. Karen Mapp emphasizes that we need to do a better job of preparing preservice teachers for family engagement and then offer this professional learning for our current practitioners as well. Sarah responds:  What are some key components to move towards practicing two-way communication?  Dr. Mapp talks about moving past system structures that are set up with deficit mindsets towards embracing the fact that families do care about their children.  Once families are seen as the geniuses that they are for the funds of knowledge they hold, we can create these deep community partnerships.  Taking on the attitude that families are valued and equal partners makes us as educators better practitioners. Mark prompts:  “You've reference so many studies in your work.  Share with us a study or two that stands out.”  Dr. Karen Mapp shares 40 studies in her book Everyone Wins.  She highlights the Botswana study and the impact on families through this simple text message practice to communicate with home environments.  The second study featured by Dr. Mapp today is the parent-teacher home visit model study. Following our normal podcast protocol, we ask for resources for educators to learn more about family engagement and encourage Dr. Karen Mapp to highlight some departing words for our listenersWe wrap up this episode by asking listeners to share your thoughts on podcast topics - your voice matters!  Please visit bit.ly/LLCNtopics to tell us what you want future podcasts to focus on in relation to literacy.   All resources in this LLCN Brief (and future podcasts) can be found at:  bit.ly/LLCNresources2223  Subscribe to the Literacy Leadership and Coaches Network podcasts here: anchor.fm/llcnbrief or your favorite podcast platform.

In This Episode . . . Kishshana zeros in on faux vulnerability versus real vulnerability and how that works for you as a leader. How do vulnerabilities from your life or previous work experiences carry over into your current work and your leadership? They show up in you being closed off, not allowing people and coworkers to get to know you, striving to achieve, and being extra hard on yourself and therefore on others.  Have you asked yourself whether your faux vulnerability is preventing you from bringing a level of realness and openness to your leadership? And remember to pay attention to the fact that vulnerability goes two ways. How are you making space to be vulnerable? And how are you creating space for others to be vulnerable with you? Episode Highlights: (3:23) Summer well series powered by Bloomerang;  (4:26) Faux vulnerability versus real vulnerability;   (7:28) Examples of vulnerability;   (10:40) How to be vulnerable as a leader;   (12:44) Your leadership journey;   (14:01) Can I actually be vulnerable;   (15:30) Vulnerability goes two ways; Episode Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by our sponsor https://bloomerang.co/ (Bloomerang) Episode Resources: Join us at https://therootedretreat.com/ (The Rooted Retreat) in Jamaica or virtually online For more Management Master head over to https://kishcamp.co/ (Kish Camp) https://www.buymeacoffee.com/takethisoffline (Support the Show)

In this episode, we are exploring food, mood and its connection to chronic pain. As you head into the holiday season, I wanted to make a special episode just for you because overeating and overindulging in food can be a challenge for each and every one of us. No doubt, you will attend holiday parties, office parties, celebrations with friends and families, and run into food around every corner from Thanksgiving straight through to the New Year. This is an important topic related to chronic pain because we know the food you eat can ease your pain or the food you eat can exacerbate your pain. One of the greatest challenges with food is that it can be used as a numbing agent for times when you're feeling down or anxious. Using food to deal with chronic pain is a vicious cycle that can lead to increased inflammation, weight gain, hormonal imbalance, irritable bowel syndrome and problems with mood and sleep, all of which make pain worst. Joining us to discuss the food, mood, pain connection is Dr. Susan Albers. She is a New York Times bestselling author and clinical psychologist at the Cleveland Clinic. She's the author of eight mindful eating books, including her book called Hanger Management: Master Your Hunger and Improve Your Mood, Mind, and Relationships. She's been a guest on popular TV shows including Dr. Oz and The Today Show. Her books, programs and tips have been featured in Oprah Magazine, Family Circle, Prevention and the New York Times. In this episode, you'll learn all about hanger management and how to successfully manage it. The connection between food, mood, emotions and chronic pain. Some tips for eating more mindfully and because preventing hanger means staying one step ahead of it. Dr. Albers will provide you with a free PDF download to her Hanger Alert Scale. This tool will help you reach for good mood foods that are nutrient-dense and packed with fiber and protein to help reduce the stress in your body.

Welcome to the Design Thinking 101 podcast! I'm Dawan Stanford, your host. Today I'll be interviewing Tony Hu, who is the academic director at MIT's Integrated Design and Management Master's program. We'll be talking about how Tony discovered design, human-centered design's impact on students, and MIT's unique program combining design and engineering management. We start our episode during Tony's high school career, with his passion for writing. He started on the journalism team and edited the school newspaper. Additionally, he was interested in gadgets - this was during the Sony Walkman era. Tony was interested in working on a similar technology at the time. His father was an engineer and was a big influence on Tony's career. He heard MIT was the route to take if he was serious about engineering, so he applied and was accepted, to the dismay of his journalism teacher. While at MIT, Tony studied transistors and Maxwell's equations, which was not an enjoyable experience for him. He stuck through the course and found an interesting opportunity with an internship from the media lab working with the “newspaper of the future.” He graduated with an electrical engineering degree; however, he wasn't actually interested in the field. Tony wanted to learn about other aspects of products and interviewed with IBM in Boston as a Systems Engineer. When he started getting bored selling computers, he decided to look into a career in advertising. He was pursuing a bookstore for advertising books when just a few shelves down he discovered books on industrial design and product design. He found out about night classes at a local college and was hooked! After talking with several people, he found out about the Stanford program and fell in love with Stanford. Tony talks about the challenges he faced in the early 1980s in the industrial design career. He realizes that students today are challenged with finding multiple solutions instead of just one engineering solution. Students are having to change their mindset and thinking, to offer numerous solutions. Another challenge is interviewing others, especially when they themselves are an introvert. During his journey, Tony has designed toys and been a consultant to numerous companies. He was the first designer and product developer at a small company that sold baby products. At this first position, he learned the value of testing products. He then went through a succession of companies, exploring his passion for working with toys. His primary interest was to see a product all the way through from design to marketing, and he still wanted to stay in the toy field. He started his own company creating toys and licensing them out to companies. One of his crazier designs was a bodysuit with casters which you could use to roll down a road! Another design he created was breathable, more comfortable protective gear for rollerblading. Throughout this time, Tony taught Visual Design at Stanford. He met his wife, and 13 years later when she was expecting her first child and needed to find a teacher for her classes, she suggested her husband for the position. He ended up teaching several of her classes. Through his wife and teaching, he met Matt Kressy, who is an industrial designer from the Rhode Island School of Design. Matt went on to start a design program at MIT and invited Tony to check it out. A few years later, Matt asked him to join the program.   Bio Tony Hu is the Academic Director of MIT's Integrated Design & Management Master's Program. As an entrepreneurial leader with 20+ years of experience as head of product development at both startups and large corporations, he has brought over 200 consumer products to market globally, including electronics, appliances, toys, and sporting goods, and is a champion of design, creativity, and innovation. He's also an inventor, with 18 patents and 22 products he designed and licensed himself. For the past 13 years, Tony has taught design thinking as a lecturer at MIT and Stanford. He earned his Masters in Product Design at Stanford and his bachelor in Electrical Engineering at MIT, where he conducted research at the Media Lab. As a teacher, he is a rarity: an engineer with a background in both design and business. Tony loves sharing his holistic approach to product design with students.   In This Episode [01:05] Tony talks about his origin story in design and how he started on the path to design. [05:07] How he landed a job at IBM and his experience at IBM in sales. [07:01] Tony's introduction into industrial and product design. [08:30] Challenges Tony encountered in the early years of working in design. [11:58] Tony talks about his first product development position and his takeaways from product development. [16:04] Tony's steps further down his design journey, focusing mainly on toys. [20:18] Before the .com boom - more history and working with different companies. [25:05] Tony talks about meeting Matt and how working with Matt influenced Tony's path in design. [27:28] How this unique program is attracting diverse learners. [30:02] The process of design thinking on product development. [35:33] Tony's role in the transformation of teaching design thinking.

At this first position, he learned the value of testing products. He then went through a succession of companies, exploring his passion for working with toys. His primary interest was to see a product all the way through from design to marketing, and he still wanted to stay in the toy field. He started his own company creating toys and licensing them out to companies. One of his crazier designs was a bodysuit with casters which you could use to roll down a road! Another design he created was breathable, more comfortable protective gear for rollerblading. Throughout this time, Tony taught Visual Design at Stanford. He met his wife, and 13 years later when she was expecting her first child and needed to find a teacher for her classes, she suggested her husband for the position. He ended up teaching several of her classes. Through his wife and teaching, he met Matt Kressy, who is an industrial designer from the Rhode Island School of Design. Matt went on to start a design program at MIT and invited Tony to check it out. A few years later, Matt asked him to join the program.   Bio Tony Hu is the Academic Director of MIT's Integrated Design & Management Master's Program. As an entrepreneurial leader with 20+ years of experience as head of product development at both startups and large corporations, he has brought over 200 consumer products to market globally, including electronics, appliances, toys, and sporting goods, and is a champion of design, creativity, and innovation. He’s also an inventor, with 18 patents and 22 products he designed and licensed himself. For the past 13 years, Tony has taught design thinking as a lecturer at MIT and Stanford. He earned his Masters in Product Design at Stanford and his bachelor in Electrical Engineering at MIT, where he conducted research at the Media Lab. As a teacher, he is a rarity: an engineer with a background in both design and business. Tony loves sharing his holistic approach to product design with students.   In This Episode [01:05] Tony talks about his origin story in design and how he started on the path to design.

We’re going to talk about tips of how you can become a management master. Could you let our listeners know a little bit about where you came from and what inspired you to get to where you are? Mads: My background initially was corporate. When I left the corporate world (IBM), I started working as a management coach, and that is what I enjoyed doing more than anything. I love building teams and companies. I love seeing things grow. Kevin: I imagine that in your experience there’s a lot of similarities you see from one person to another. What is a common thing you see your clients get wrong? Mads: Instead of calling it wrong, I’d say that they don’t know better. The steps that usually occur when people tend to get the idea that they want to start a business They tend to get distracted, the majority of which is unproductive The next step is most people go way too broad when they start a business because they’re afraid of closing people out (not having enough market) You always want to do the exact opposite The problem is if you’re not specialized (what you’re good at), you don’t have a place where you can add additional value based on past experience Goal is to build up an expertise and then you can start optimizing and figuring out what works best, which makes it more likely for you to start selling your services (getting your niche right, specific) What people need to do in order to avoid problems when starting a business Developing a niche (specializing) When you have mastered your expertise, then you can start adding to the value chain, which will increase the customer lifetime value resulting in more money In the beginning, people are so desperate to get clients, but you need to get some initial clients for your niche Most of the time, the problem is that they do lead generation for a long time, all their energy going from marketing to customer fulfillment, but if that client leaves, the lead generation dries up Be consistent all around (establishing those habits) If you’ve done projects for someone in a specific niche, and you feel as though that’s a niche you know, then that’s often a great place to start It’s a lot easier to connect with people It’s much easier to actually find a market and conquer it when you go small (specialized) Learn to delegate (letting go of the least valuable things) People often don’t do this because they feel as though everything needs to be perfect If you want to grow a business, you have to be doing the most valuable thing you can do in your business to grow it Three areas to look at when dealing with delegation What’s the least valuable thing you do? What do you hate doing?/ What are you not good at? Getting other people to do this is often a huge relief What do you spend the most of your time on? Particularly if it’s a small business, if you spend 50-60% of your time doing one specific area/ task, it’s easier to hire someone to do this (becomes 100% of the employee’s time) Recruitment of employees If you want to build an actual business that can grow in scale When you are able to delegate a certain task to someone else, now becoming their job, you can keep it consistent Good lead generation systems by working with people who can help you build that system As a business owner,...

Engineering Management (EM) vs MBA? That is a question I have talked about a lot in the last few years.  I have both a masters in engineering and an MBA. And since joining the university, I have been running an engineering management program (Information Engineering and Management or IEM). So I have seen them all up close and personal.  I have the conversation almost daily with engineers and technology leaders who are looking to grow through higher education and considering both the MBA and the Engineering Management paths.    Should I Get a Masters in Engineering Management or MBA (Podcast Outline) Things to consider before making the decision The company I work for or want to work for - culture Knowing where you want to go Define your goal Management strictly and get out of technology Move into technical management MBA Programs - Not all the same Course work similar but varieties Economics. Accounting. Entrepreneurship. Marketing. Strategy. Project Management. Organizational development. Connections to industry highly variable Some pure academic Some talk about the industry with little true connections Some highly connected Engineering Management Program - Not all the same Course work variations Statistics Systems engineering Project Management. Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Leadership and strategy. Communications. Technical paths. Connections to industry Often less than in the MBA. Look behind the scenes and ask questions. How to evaluate What is your goal?  Move into technology leadership. Pure academic vs applied. Just get a degree. Look at faculty What industry backgrounds do they have? Have they ever practiced what they teach? Is experience required If you want to grow your network - go for programs that require experience Many programs geared to recent graduates What are the income projections?  Other Considerations Does the EM talk more your language Does this EM help you move from tech doer to tech leader About IEM Real-world Real faculty Client-focused vs curriculum-focused Coaching The $30k challenge  Click here to listen now.

Im Gespräch mit Philip Banse beantwortet Petra Murray von der Studienberatung PlanZ die grundlegenden Fragen rund um das Master-Studium.1. Begrüßung und Vorstellen der Runde Philip Banse, Petra Murray, Maria Stephan Maria studiert im Hauptfach Literatur, Kultur, Medien und im Ergänzungsfach Kommunikation und Medien an der Uni Siegen. Sie macht zur Zeit ein 3 monatiges Praktikum im Bereich Öffentlichkeitsarbeit bei planZ. 2. @Petra: Masterstudium - was ist überhaupt ein Master? Ein Master ist ein Aufbaustudium. Wer einen Bachelorabschluss hat, kann anschließend nochmal einige Semester weiterstudieren, um seine Kenntnisse zu vertiefen, ergänzen oder sich zu spezialisieren und erhält anschließend den Master als akademischen Grad. Unterschied konsekutiv, weiterbildend. Master of Arts (M.A.) Master of Science (M.Sc.) Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) Master of Laws (LL.M.) Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.) Master of Music (M.Mus.) Master of Education (M.Ed.) Lehramtsstudiengänge in Bayern und BW schließen weiterhin mit dem Staatsexamen ab. 3. Brauche ich unbedingt einen Master oder reicht ein Bachelor? Wann sollte ich auf jeden Fall einen Master machen? Wann ist es eher nicht sinnvoll? Das kommt darauf an, was du studierst und was du beruflich machen möchtest. In naturwissenschaftlichen Studiengängen oder Ingenieursstudien ist es mit Sicherheit sinnvoll, einen Master zu machen. Im geisteswissenschaftlichen Bereich kommt es drauf an – ein Master ist vielleicht nicht unbedingt nötig, doch sicherlich das richtige, wenn man sich spezialisieren möchte. Grundsätzlich kann man sagen, dass ein höherer Bildungsabschluss auch eine höhere Qualifizierung bedeutet und damit auch meistens ein höheres Gehalt im Berufsleben. Wer promovieren möchte, braucht sowieso einen Master. 4. Was sind die Voraussetzungen für ein Masterstudium? @Maria: Du bist bald fertig mit deinem Bachelorstudium. Sicher beschäftigst du dich bereits mit der Frage, ob du einen Master machen möchtest und wenn ja, was für einen. Welche Schwierigkeiten gibt es deiner Meinung nach? Maria: - breitgefächerter Studiengang (Literatur, Kultur, Medien + Kommunikation und Medien), daher nicht nur eine spezielle Richtung, was die Mastersuche schwierig macht - jede Hochschule hat andere Anforderungen, in welchem Bereich sie wieviele Credit Points für den Master möchte -> man muss sich quasi jede Studienordnung von passenden Masterstudiengängen ansehen, um herauszufinden, ob man die Anforderungen erfüllt -> kein einheitliches System, tausende von Bachelorstudiengängen mit unterschiedlichen Inhalten Wie entscheidet man sich für das passende Masterstudium? planZ Tipps! Zuschauerfrage: Boris schrieb uns eine Mail mit folgender Frage: Ich mache gerade meinen Tourismusmanagement Bachelor in Bulgarien und möchte für einen Management Master gerne nach Deutschland wechseln. Praxiserfahrung habe ich keine und außerdem das Gefühl, dass die Anforderungen in meinem Studium geringer sind als die in Deutschland, allerdings beschäftige ich mich auch in meiner Freizeit mit dem Stoff und lese viel dazu. Habe ich denn Chancen auf einen Platz? Die Voraussetzung ist ein abgeschlossenes Bachelorstudium und in den meisten Masterstudiengängen auch eine bestimmte Anzahl von Credit Points in einem oder mehreren Bereichen. Die Voraussetzungen werden individuell von jeder Hochschule festgelegt. In manchen Fällen muss man eine Eignungsprüfung ablegen (Studienmotivation, Lebenslauf) oder in einem persönlichen Gespräch überzeugen. 5. Gibt es einen NC auf Masterstudiengänge? Es gibt zulassungsfreie und zulassungsbeschränkte Studiengänge, ebenso wie im Bachelor. Die Zulassungsbeschränkung ist nicht dasselbe wie der NC und wird von der Hochschule festgelegt. Die meisten Zulassungsgrenzen liegen bei 2,5 bis 2,0. 6. Werden für einen Master Wartesemester angerechnet? Jeschko wollte per Mail wissen: Da ich wahrscheinlich nur einen sehr schlechten Bachelor erwerben werde (meine Noten sind nach 3 Semestern recht schlecht), habe ich Angst nicht für ein Masterstudium angenommen zu werden, da der einen Mindestschnitt von 2,5 voraussetzt. In den Bachelor wird man ja auch über die Wartezeit aufgenommen. Gilt das auch für den Master? Das kann jede Hochschule selbst entscheiden – manche rechnen Wartesemester nach dem Bachelor an, andere nicht. 7. Was mache ich, wenn ich keinen Studienplatz bekomme? Die Zeit sinnvoll nutzen! Zum Beispiel mit Praktika. Die werden einem beim Master meist sogar als Eignung für den Studiengang anerkannt, sofern sie im Fachbereich des Masters liegen. Da man für viele Masterstudiengänge ein Motivationsschreiben verfassen muss, kann man sich mit absolvierten Praktika auch dort als geeigneter Bewerber präsentieren. 8. Kann ich meinen Master auch später noch machen oder gibt es eine Frist nach dem Bachelor? Du kannst den Master auch später noch machen, zum Beispiel erst nachdem du ein paar Jahre gearbeitet hast - für manche Masterstudiengänge ist dies sogar Voraussetzung. 9. Gibt es genügend Plätze für alle, die einen Master machen wollen? Ursprünglich war es in der Bologna-Reform vorgesehen, dass nur ein kleiner Teil der Bachelorabsolventen ein Masterstudium anschließt. Die Realität sieht allerdings anders aus: 75% der Bachelorabsolventen streben einen Master an. Das bedeutet, dass es in manchen Fachbereichen knapp ist mit Masterplätzen. Ein guter Bachelorabschluss ist also umso wichtiger. 10. Habe ich an der Uni meines Bachelors bessere Chancen auf einen Masterplatz als an einer fremden? Oft bietet eine Hochschule einen Master an, der auf ihrem Bachelor aufbaut. Hast du an dieser Hochschule deinen Abschluss gemacht, kann diese sich sicher sein, dass du die Anforderungen des Masters erfüllst, fremde Hochschulen müssen erst prüfen, ob du die nötigen Kurse belegt und Credit Points bekommen hast. Ein Soziologie Bachelor kann an zwei verschiedenen Hochschulen unterschiedliche Studieninhalte haben und der eine reicht eventuell nicht für den Master der anderen Hochschule, weil man vielleicht nur 10 Credit Points in Statistik hat statt die geforderten 12. Jede Hochschule muss also Bachelorabsolventen anderer Hochschulen erst auf Herz und Nieren prüfen und herausfinden, ob der „fremde“ Bachelor für den eigenen Master ausreicht oder nicht. 11. Kostet ein Masterstudium Geld? Für das Masterstudium musst du Studienbeiträge und - je nach Bundesland - eventuell Studiengebühren bezahlen. Machst du den Master an einer privaten Hochschule oder im Ausland, sind die Kosten natürlich meist deutlich höher. Sie variieren grundsätzlich zwischen 250 und 15.000 Euro pro Semester. 12. Wie lange dauert ein Masterstudium? Das ist unterschiedlich. Normalerweise vier Semester, also zwei Jahre. Allerdings gibt es auch weiterführende Master, für die man Berufserfahrung benötigt und die dann nur ein Jahr dauern, manche gehen auch drei Semester. Allerdings ist vier Semester die Regel. 13. Kann ich im Master ein Auslandssemester machen oder geht das nur im Bachelor? Auch im Master ist ein Auslandssemester möglich, in vielen Masterstudiengängen ist es sogar im Studienverlaufsplan vorgesehen. 14. Kann ich problemlos einen Master im Ausland machen? Wie sind dort die Voraussetzungen? Wird mir der Auslandsmaster in Deutschland anerkannt? Ein Master im Ausland mit einem deutschen Bachelorabschluss ist grundsätzlich möglich. Die Voraussetzungen sind von Land zu Land unterschiedlich, sehr oft braucht man aber einen Nachweis über ausreichende Englischkenntnisse (z.B. TOEFL-Test). Master in Deutschland mit Bachelor aus dem Ausland. Geht das? 15. Bekomme ich für den Master weiterhin Bafög? Welche Möglichkeiten der Finanzierung gibt es außer Bafög? Ja, auch für den Master kann man Bafög bekommen. Die Voraussetzungen sind dieselben wie für das Bachelorstudium. Für einen Master im Ausland ist es möglich, Auslandsbafög zu kommen – selbst wenn man in Deutschland keins bekommen hätte, da die Lebenshaltungskosten im Ausland oft höher sind. Außerdem gibt es die Möglichkeit, einen Studienkredit zu erhalten, den man nach dem Studium zurückzahlt - zu günstigeren Konditionen als bei einem normalen Privatkredit. 16. Kann ich meinen Master in einem ganz anderen Fachbereich machen als meinen Bachelor? Zuschauerfrage: Rena weiß nicht weiter und schrieb uns eine Mail mit ihrer Frage: Ich werde diesen Sommer mit meinem Bachelorstudium in Kommunikationswissenschaft fertig sein und weiß absolut nicht, was ich danach machen soll. Das Problem ist, dass ich gemerkt habe, dass ich mich in der Branche (PR, Marketing..) nicht so wohl fühle. Um die 3 Jahre Studium nicht völlig umsonst gemacht zu haben, würde ich gerne einen nicht-konsekutiven Master machen, der mehr in Richtung Wirtschaft geht (sowas wie International Business, Projektmanagement...). In den meisten Zulassungsvorschriften steht aber, dass man Berufserfahrung oder eben einen wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Bachelor braucht. Was würdet ihr mir empfehlen? Zuschauerfrage: Lisa ist unsicher, welchen Master sie machen kann. Sie fragte per Mail: Ich studiere Tourismusmanagement und war bereits während meines Studiums mehr an den Betriebswirtschaftlichen Fächern interessiert, mein Grundstudium war fast ausschließlich BWL, auch wenn man dies bei einem Tourismusstudiengang nicht erwartet. Nun habe ich mittlerweile großes Interesse am Bereich Forschung und Entwicklung. Bei der Suche nach einem geeigneten Master-Studiengang, wie z.B. Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen, Forschung & Entwicklung… haben mich stets die Zulassungsvoraussetzungen eines gleichartigen Bachelorstudiengangs abgeschreckt. Nun frage ich mich, wie ich mit meinem bisherigen Bachelorstudiengang in die gewünschte Richtung einschlagen kann? Ist das nur mit einem gleichartigen Bachelorabschluss möglich? Dann könnte man sich also beim Master nicht in andere Richtungen weiterbilden. Da die Hochschule ihre Zugangsvoraussetzungen selbst festlegt, musst du dich individuell informieren. Es gibt auch Masterstudiengänge, für die man keine Vorkenntnisse braucht, sie sind allerdings selten und für viele braucht man mindestens ein Jahr Berufserfahrung, diese nennt man weiterbildende Masterstudiengänge. 17. Wie komme ich mit dem Master dortin, wo ich hin will? Zuschauerfrage: Kai schickte uns eine E-Mail und möchte wissen: Ich mache gerade meinen Finnisch Master in Finnland, davor habe ich in Köln Finnisch und Linguistik studiert. Nachdem mir gesagt wurde, dass ich als Nicht-Muttersprachler wohl keine Chance in meinem ursprünglichen Ziel der Erwachsenenbildung habe, entschied ich mich für Museologie als Nebenfach. Allerdings suche ich dennoch nach einem Job/Praktikum im multilingualem/interkulturellen Kontakt. Ich habe bereits nebenbei im Einzelhandel gearbeitet und als Tutor an der Uni, außerdem habe ich ein Praktikum beim Radio gemacht. Sind diese Qualifikationen und die Berufserfahrungen im Einzelhandel, Journalismus und Bildung wertvoll für das, was ich gerne machen will? Welchen Wert haben die drei Kurse aus dem Wirtschaftsbereich, die ich zusätzlich belegen will? Eine andere Alternative war eine Ausbildung nach dem Master. Wie sinnvoll ist ein solcher Weg?
