Interesting web-based simulation of natural disasters. Students are expected to problem solve how to deal with prepping for a specific disaster with a limited budget. Obvious application in Geography classes but also could be used in History when looking at a specific disaster in history like Hurricane Katrina.

Es sind genau genommen erkenntnistheoretische Fragen von Gesellschaftswissenschaften, ja Wissenschaft überhaupt. Nur als solche behandelt - nicht fachwissenschaftlich verengt - sind sie nützlich bearbeitbar. Es ist die Arbeit mit dem Paradigma, dass jede Erkenntnis/Wissenschaft perspektivisch ist. Das erkennende Subjekt kann sich noch nicht einmal aus den Natur-Gegenständen seines Erkennens "herausrechenen" - wie viel weniger aus den Kultur-Gegenständen. Die Frage ist nicht, ob, sondern WIE mit diesem als Tatsache aufzufassenden Umstand umgegangen werden kann/muss/sollte. Das ist keine in erster Linie fachspezifische Frage. Sie muss auf einer allgemeinen Ebene geklärt werden und in der Fachwissenschaft konkretisiert. D.h. meine apriori - und es gibt, wie wir wissen immer welche - liegen gar nicht in der fachwissenschaftlichen Problematik, sondern davor.

As they did in cities across Western Europe, migrants tended to cluster in low-income neighborhoods; facing poor job prospects and rampant employment discrimination, they naturally turned inward. More young women have started wearing the hijab recently, Mr. Abdirahman tells me, and more young men “internalize the otherness” — rejected by their new society, they embrace the stereotypes imposed upon them. This can lead to a point where they reject gay rights or liberalism as “white, Western ideas,” and even attack firefighters because they represent the state.
-
As we walk around, Mr. Abdirahman, who is single and childless, confesses: “When I came here in 1998, to me this place was paradise. Today, I wouldn’t want my children to grow up here.”
