The Technical University of Munich* \u2013 Preparation for those Super-Duper Elite German Universities: It All Starts in Kindergarten \u2013 16<\/p>\n
Another problem is that until now research in education has concentrated much more on school pupils than on children in kindergarten. After Germany\u2019s educational system appeared in such an unfavourable light in the Pisa study, chaotic attempts were made to improve kindergartens to meet the demands of global competition. However, these attempts consisted mainly in the transfer of certain elementary school models to the kindergartens. And in this way, as education experts Antje Bostelmann and Benjamin Bell have written, \u201cthe patient, i.e., the still failing elementary school, that has not yet been completely restored to health has infected the \u2018neighboring patient,\u2019 the kindergarten. Educational kindergartens are definitely not the solution to the problem of creating successful educational biographies for German children.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Ruehle, Alex, \u201eDie Zukunft entscheidet sich im Kindergarten\u201c, sueddeutsche.de, 14 July 2010.<\/p>\n *In the area of engineering\/technology and computer sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked with twenty-two other universities at 78 or below, well beneath such institutions as the Technical University of Denmark. (http:\/\/www.arwu.org\/ARWUFIELD2009ENG.jsp) According to The Times of London, in its Higher Education Supplement [THES], World University Rankings, 2009, the Technical University of Munich is ranked 55 overall among the world\u2019s universities.

Weshalb bei den seit Pisa chaotisch durcheinander experimentierenden Versuchen, den Kindergarten aus dem Dornr\u00f6schenschlaf zu holen und jetzt mal dallidalli klar zu machen f\u00fcr die Anforderungen des globalen Wettbewerbs, meist nur versucht wird, Konzepte aus den Grundschulen auf die Kinderg\u00e4rten zu \u00fcbertragen. Dadurch hat, wie die P\u00e4dagogen Antje Bostelmann und Benjamin Bell schreiben, “der Patient, der noch gar nicht genesen ist, seinen Nachbarn angesteckt: Bildungskinderg\u00e4rten sind bei weitem nicht die L\u00f6sung f\u00fcr erfolgreiche Bildungsbiographien deutscher Kinder.”<\/strong><\/p>\n (Fortsetzung folgt.)<\/p>\n Quelle: R\u00fchle, Alex, \u201eDie Zukunft entscheidet sich im Kindergarten\u201c, s\u00fcddeutsche.de, 14.7.2010.<\/p>\n *Im Bereich Technik und Computerwissenschaft, nach dem Bericht \u201eAcademic Ranking of World Universities\u201c von der Universit\u00e4t Jiao-Tong von Schanghai, steht die Technische Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen, eine durch die deutsche Regierung anerkannte \u201eElite-Universit\u00e4t\u201c, jetzt zwischen der 78. und 100.
