Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Informatik - Wirtschaftsinformatik, Note: 1,0, Universität Paderborn, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Big Data beschreibt ein verhältnismäßig junges Themengebiet, welches seit einiger Zeit flächendeckendes Interesse auslöst. So befand sich die Technologie im Jahr 2013 auf dem Höhepunkt des Gartner Hype Cycle. Es handelt es sich jedoch um mehr als nur einen Hype, da sich Big Data längst in zahlreichen Bereichen des Lebens manifestiert hat, von der alltäglichen Nutzung sozialer Plattformen bis hin zur Forschung an Zukunftstechnologien. Die dementsprechend große Spannweite des Themas lässt eine genaue Eingrenzung des Einflussbereichs kaum noch zu. Aus eben diesem Grund wurde Big Data trotz seiner Neuheit seit 2015 nicht weiter als aufkommende Technologie im Gartner Hype Cycle aufgeführt. Die wachsende Bedeutung der Thematik wurde vor allem durch Faktoren wie steigende Prozessorleistung und sinkende Kosten von Speicherkapazität, welche durch Moore's Gesetz beschrieben werden, begünstigt. Ebenso gilt die Durchdringung nahezu aller Bevölkerungsschichten von Geräten wie Smartphones, Smartwatches oder digitaler Assistenten, welche als Sensoren vieler Arten fungieren, als Katalysator von Big Data. Sowohl Unternehmen, private Institutionen als auch Regierungen sehen gleichermaßen ein enormes Potential in der Nutzung dieser Technologie als Werkzeug zur Datensammlung und -analyse. Die jeweiligen Ziele und die damit verbundenen Auswirkungen unterscheiden sich hingegen deutlich.Trotz des hohen Bekanntheitsgrads dieser Technologie variiert das Verständnis des Terminus Big Data innerhalb der Bevölkerung teilweise stark. Aus diesem Grund werden im folgenden Kapitel drei unterschiedliche Begriffsdefinitionen erläutert. 28 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Pre-University Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Economic Geography, , language: English, abstract: The present work focuses on the success of the economic area Frankfurt-Rhein-Main. I asked myself why Frankfurt was so successful and if it may still develop, but I could not answer these questions. The main topic of this research paper is to answer these questions. At the beginning of my research paper, I would like to describe the location of the economic area of Frankfurt-Rhein-Main and consider which cities are members of this economic area. I will explain important location factors of the tertiary sector and examine Frankfurt am Main regarding the present location factors. I will focus on Frankfurt because it is the most significant city in the economic area. Afterwards, I will analyse the economic structure of Frankfurt and Frankfurt-Rhein-Main and compare them with the structure in the past. While analysing the current economic structure, I will elaborate significant branches in the economy of Frankfurt. At the end of this work, I will try to realize a trend and give a prognosis. I will conclude by answering the central issue, why the economic area could be so successful and if the potential may be exploited. Frankfurt am Main is the city in Frankfurt-Rhein-Main with the highest importance. Almost one third of the gross domestic product is generated in Frankfurt am Main. It is not the only city contributing to economic performance. Other cities are also contributing more than five billion euros to the total gross domestic product. Nevertheless, the economic area still depends on Frankfurt because of the high share of the economic performance. To sum up, we can say Frankfurt fulfils many important location factors that com-panies of the tertiary sectors are looking for. This includes a central location, a good infrastructure, an excellent digital infrastructure, great reputation, education, continuous graduations in demanded subjects, agglomeration benefits, and top real estate.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 32 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Communications - Media and Politics, Politic Communications, , language: English, abstract: The purpose of this paper is to take a closer look at the problem of fake news and to evaluate if regulations of any kind could have a positive impact. The two following questions will be front and center: What are the primary challenges to Internet regulation in general and fake news in particular What are possible paths to resolutions to those challenges In order to analyze those questions, this paper will first address the consumption of news online and the role social media in particular. In a second step, the subject of 'fake news' will be introduced. It will also take a look at the theoretical background and problems when it comes to regulations of online content. Then, those problems and possible solutions will be discussed in connection to the chosen example of fake news. Lastly, the results will be summarized and a conclusion will be drawn. Overall, it should be noted that the challenges described in this paper relate exclusively to political news and cannot be generalized across all subcategories of news. The discussion will focus primarily on the United States. This can mainly be justified due to their political and economic dominance on the world stage. Furthermore, major Internet companies, for instance Facebook, Twitter and Google, are all based in the United States. Finally, the recent presidential election has provoked an international debate and offers a great basis for further analysis. Events during the past decade have demonstrated that social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, are changing the way individuals consume and share news. News stories can be distributed across borders and discussed by people around the world within minutes. One example includes news of the protests in the Middle East that spread through the social media networks Twitter and Facebook. Situations like this demonstrated how posted stories, photos and videos could immediately attract world-wide attention and how social media platforms can support news production and diffusion. Indeed, the spread of news on social media has become a phenomenon of increasing social, economic and political magnitude. Recently though, the proliferation of fake news on social media has been subject of an intensive international discussion.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 20 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Africa, grade: 1, National University of Science & Technology Zimbabwe (Institute of Development Studies), language: English, abstract: Government accountability to its citizens is a critical factor in development. Lack of government accountability is associated with citizen disloyalty and confrontations which may affect the economic and political situation in a country. This paper examined the effects of lack of accountability on the part of the ZANU PF led government in Zimbabwe. The established lack of sufficient government accountability in Zimbabwe has birthed an unprecedented unemployment rate of 96%. Informalization of the economy which has led to citizens surviving on being vendors has seen the competency of the government being put in question notwithstanding the political instability within the ruling. The internally fragmented ZANU PF had to suffer the effects of opposition politics, and pressure from social movement such as Tajamuka, Zimbabwe Shutdown. The Beitbridge border protest epitomised the displeasure of the citizenry; it also symbolizes an eco-political war against the Mugabe-led ZANU PF government. This paper adopted a desk research approach, due to its nature it utilised secondary sources such as newspaper articles, journal articles, commentaries and textbooks to conceptualize the problem under investigation. The study established that the insensitivity by the ZANU led government received a serious backlash which was an effort of bringing government to answer for its incompetence. On an overall note protests in Zimbabwe have been inspired by internalized anger and the undeterred interest to alter the political realities for the better, this time around with the citizens backed by social media to mobilize themselves fashionably. In future there is need for the government to necessitate a bottom up approach in its implementation statutes so as to involve the citizens in all levels of decision making.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

The idea of addiction as a disease first came about in 1987, 31 years after alcoholism was labeled a disease by the American Medical Association in 1956 (n.d.c). In Unit 3 of Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Health and Society, Leshner and Slate (2018) both provide opposing arguments on the subject. Leshner is arguing that addiction is a brain disease while Slater argues that it is not a brain disease.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 16 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2019 in the subject History - Africa, grade: 5.0, Mount Kenya University, language: English, abstract: This essay focuses on the United Nations¿ and the world¿s greatest powers¿ role during the Rwandian civil war and genocide in 1994.In 1994 Rwanda was involved in a civil war between its two major ethnic groups, Hutu and Tutsi. The civil war results in a genocide where 800,000 people were killed within 100 days. United Nations and world superpowers are primarily blamed for not doing enough to prevent the genocide from occurring. In this research, the author answers the question where the UN failed in preventing the Rwandan civil war as well as genocide in 1994. The study demonstrates that the UN failed in its mandate of stopping the genocide. Most of the United Nations member¿s states failed to show their responsibility and preparedness to send material or troop to the genocide. Also, the research shows that the peacekeeping mission sent to Rwanda was ill-prepared and lacked the appropriate commanding structure to effectively respond to the killings that were taking place in the country. Thus, the genocide that occurred in Rwanda in 1994 can squarely be blamed on failures of the UN to prevent and respond to the civil war effectively.The genocide in Rwanda is perhaps one of the most intensive killing campaigns to take place in human history after the Second World War. The Rwanda genocide came as a result of ethnic division which was not a feature of Rwandan society before the establishment of colonial rule. Initially, Rwanda was colonized by Germans, but it was taken over by Belgium which came up with the divide and rule policy to control Rwanda.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

I will have a look at five frequently used swearwords in the English language and evaluate those due to social features of the speaker and the addressee by using data from the BNCweb corpus.In addition to that I will either prove or disprove some of the following assumptions made by Timothy Jay and Kristin Janschewitz for the circuit of the BNCweb corpus: ¿Swearing is influenced by pragmatic (contextual) variables such as the conversationaltopic, the speaker-listener relationship, including gender, occupation, and status, and the social-physical setting of the communication with respect to whether the swearing takes place in a public or private location, one¿s jurisdiction over the location, and the level of formality of the occasion.¿To narrow this down, I categorize my research in four classes: context, status, gender and additionally age. Finally, I conclude whether the above-mentioned social features influence a native English speaker's disposition to swear.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

During the time of Prohibition many newly rich people earned their money from the bootlegging business, selling illegal alcohol out of their back doors. And Jay Gatsby is one of them.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Document from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, Cardiff University, course: English literature, language: English, abstract: 'Brother Jacob' shows an example of the representation of sugar in a small town in Britain itself, whereas 'The Journal of a West Indian Proprietor' rather represents the sugar production and life on the plantations in the colonies. This essay will look at different representations of sugar in the two works and will compare them to each other.¿There is something about sugarcane, he isn¿t what he seem---¿ . At first sight the sweet pleasure of sugar as we know it today and as we use it in our every-day life, might seem nothing but that, an innocent pleasure. But in times of the British colonies, where the history of sugar begins, it was so much more than that. The background of sugar is marked by oppression and violence. George Eliot¿s 'Brother Jacob' and Matthew Lewis¿ 'Journal of a West India Proprietor' are just two examples of literature which tell us about the representation of sugar and which make it clear that sugar isn¿t what it might seem. Both books have been released in the 19th century, with one difference though.'Brother Jacob' was written after the Emancipation Act took place whereas Lewis¿ 'Journal' was written years before. The two stories show different representations of sugar under the light of slavery and colonialism. Since the 17th century sugar plantations in the West Indies were the main source of work and profit. As the West Indies were British colonies, many British businessmen became plantation owners. Their slaves worked under different conditions for their masters, most of them suffering a lot. But when the sugar was imported into Great Britain nothing reminded about the brutal way in which it was produced anymore.'On July 28, 1833, the Emancipation Act was passed in England, to take effect on August 1, 1834, but it emancipated only children under six, and ¿apprenticed¿ domestic and non-field workers to their former masters for a period of four year and plantation workers for six years¿ . This was a huge step against slavery. But still the slaves had to stay on the sugar plantations and some of them still worked under bad conditions.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 20 pp. Englisch.

Through news and messages provided by these media members of the public get a better understanding of their society. Dialogue carried out by humans especially through the instrumentality of the mass media mainly include exchange of information in a language understood by the people involved in the communication process. For this reason, effective, persuasive communication can only take place if a common language is used.

It goes a step further into the mechanisms of translation which power takes over to make its ideological aim attainable in the colonial context. Since translation can never take place without there being two different languages, it is inevitably necessary to note that in the colonial context translation can never operate without relations of power in which who holds power dominates the production of translation. Further, this dual relation, which connects the colonizer with the colonized, remains of flaws without the help of the translator who becomes a very crucial agent of power and paves the way for the empowerment of the colonizer and the disempowerment of the colonized.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

However, it must be noted that this trade is largely dependent on the transportation of such goods from one place to another except, of course, where the sale relates to electronic items such as software and electronic books. Otherwise, transportation is integral to international trade and depending on the sale contract (e.g. cost, insurance, freight ¿ CIF or free on board - FOB) between the seller and the buyer, the seller is usually responsible for arranging for the transportation of the cargo from his country to the buyer¿s country.The transportation of goods may be by air, road, rail, or sea. The transportation of goods, by whatever mode, must be done in a safe and efficient manner if the parties to the transaction are to be satisfied and trade relations, sustained. Therefore, it is paramount to have in place binding agreement between parties to any contract for the transportation of goods as well as laws which create, unify and, if necessary, regulate the transactions by setting minimum or further obligations, liabilities and rights for the parties.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 16 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Didactics - English - Literature, Works, grade: A, University of Burdwan, language: English, abstract: The Tragedy of 'Hamlet, Prince of Denmark' is one of the most profound prolonged prolific tragedies of Shakespeare. The play was first performed in 1600, by the Lord Chamberlain's Men. Richard Burbage took the role of protagonist Hamlet. According to some Shakespeare¿s scholar, Shakespeare himself had played the role of the Ghost of Hamlet's dead father. Appearance of ghost hints the supernatural atmosphere of the play. The opening scene creates a nexus between the fictional and real world, which helps the reader to prepare their mind to apply 'willing suspension of disbelief'.It also transports them from the hardcore mundane real world to a suspenseful dramatic world. Entrance of the Ghost rapidly sieges the entire concentration of the readers and it makes readers curious to know about the plot of the entire play in spite of its immense volume.Hamlet is in between cerebral and emotional conflict. Being a highly learned man he is yet unable to emancipate himself completely from the grip of superstitious dogmas. The anthropocentric philosophical study is yet not able to illuminate the mind of the age. He follows the ghost¿s direction without thinking twice about his own safety.Horatio and Marcellus they try their best to dissuade to follow the ghost.Hamlet, as the titular prince of Denmark seeks vengeance for the murder of his father at the hands of his Uncle Claudius. Prince Hamlet¿s suspicious mind and haunted thoughts of sleepless nights lead him to a disequilibrium lunatic state. Such unbelievable shocking news of murder of his father by his uncle Claudius creates a traumatic instability in his personality. Conspired death of his father by his uncle leads to a result of embittered experience of his life. He thinks a lot and gets confused several times to take a decision. As the conspiracy is inside his family, that is why it is not that much easy to take the revenge by killing his cruel uncle Claudius. To kill Claudius means to make his own mother widow again.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Its historical setting marks a major transition within the Irish culture, which was progressively eradicated by the British colonizers at that time. This paper examines the concept of love in 'Translations'. All kinds of romantic love presented in the play will be analyzed.First, the focus will be on the asymmetrical love between Sarah and Manus as well as on its consequences. Then, the conflict-laden love triangle between the engaged couple Manus and Maire, and the newly enamored lovers Maire and Yolland will be analyzed precisely. After that, there will be an insight in Jimmy Jack¿s love towards the ancient Greek goddess Athena.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, grade: 1, University of Malta, course: ENG 3016 Language and the Literary Mind, language: English, abstract: The present work takes a closer look at Text World Theory through analysing Margaret Atwood¿s novella 'The Penelopiad'. Text World Theory (TWT) analyses the mental representations human beings create when indulging in any kind of discourse, the written as well as the spoken one. It structures these mental representations in worlds which have a certain hierarchy between each other. Since Professor Paul Werth developed this theory in the 1980s and 1990s, it has been revised and restructured several times. The question arises whether the structure of TWT is still in need of improvement, as Werth¿s three-dimensional structure already proved to be unsatisfactory to some text-world researchers, like Joanna Gavins.To answer this question, I will look at the mental representation of worlds Margaret Atwood¿s novella 'The Penelopiad' is able to generate. I am going to argue that this novella is proof that there can be more than one Text World (TW). From these TW, further types of worlds can be created, like Sub-Worlds (SW), Possible Worlds (PW) and in-Text Worlds (iTW), a term which I personally coined. I will try to prove that the major difference between TW and the other world types is the point of view from which they are told.As the size of the assignment does not allow to analyze the whole TWT structure of 'The Penelopiad' in depth, I am going to concentrate on certain aspects only. First of all, it will be the structure in a whole that is going to be the focus and not the content of the single worlds. Furthermore, the parts which deviate from the traditional structure of TWT will be granted more attention than those which overlap it. Finally, only the worlds which are told from Penelope¿s perspective will be analyzed. This implies that the TW of the Maids (TW4) will just be mentioned, but not analyzed. Consequently, a lot of this topic will still be open for discussion. 'The Penelopiad' is suitable for a TWT analysis as it is set in the particular domain of gender studies.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Literature - Comparative Literature, grade: 2,7, Cardiff University, course: English literature, language: English, abstract: This essay will aim at answering the following questions and it will compare the different representations of African American identity in the three short stories. Is there a difference in the representation of black identity if it is contested by a white writer The question is if Faulkner¿s representation of African American identity as a white author is more influenced by stereotypes than Wright¿s or Baldwin¿s. Or might some of these stereotypes actually be part of the black identity For almost two centuries the short story has been part of the American literary tradition. It is one of the most essential literary genres of American culture. But it has been just as important to African American culture. Richard Wright and James Baldwin are two of the most well-known African American short story authors. They represent African American identity and culture in their short stories from the black point of view. William Faulkner, whose story will be analysed in this essay together with the ones of Wright and Baldwin, represents African American identity from a white author¿s point of view. This essay will look at a variety of ways in which African American identity is contested in three short stories by these three authors. The stories the essay will deal with are Wright¿s story The Man Who Was Almost a Man, written in 1961, Baldwin¿s Sonny¿s Blues from 1957 and William Faulkner¿s That Evening Sun which was published for the first time in 1931, but also appeared in 1950 which is the version this essay relies on. Black writers have often been 'neglected or misread because of their ¿race¿', as Byerman argues, therefore it is interesting to take a look at the ways black identity is represented and contested in those stories.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Kunst - Allgemeines, Kunsttheorie, Note: 1,0, Freie Universität Berlin, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Verehrung von Ikonen, wie sie für die orthodoxe Kirche typisch ist, geht auf eine Tradition zurück, die sich etwa ab dem sechsten Jahrhundert als eigenständige religiöse Praxis bei den Christen manifestierte. Dabei hat sich nicht nur die traditionelle Verwendung der Ikone für den liturgischen Gebrauch etabliert, sondern auch eine eigenständige Tradition mit genauen Anweisungen für die richtige Art und Weise der Ikonenmalerei herausgebildet. Dieser tradierten Form will die vorliegende Arbeit durch die Analyse des Kapitels 'Vorübung und Unterweisung für denjenigen, welcher die Malkunst erlernen will' aus dem Malerhandbuch des Malermönchs Dionysios vom Berge Athos nachgehen.Zunächst wird dargestellt, wie die Tradition der Verehrung von Bildern christlicher Heiliger, Märtyrer und der Heiligen Familie selbst, auf Basis des griechisch-römischen Bilderkults entstand. Anschließend soll anhand der historischen Darstellung des byzantinischen Bilderstreits gezeigt werden, wie die hart umkämpfte Bilderverehrung schließlich zugunsten der Ikonodulen, der Bilderverehrer, entschieden wurde und was dies für die innerkirchliche Entwicklung bedeutete.Im Hauptteil dieser Arbeit wird auf der Grundlage des 'Malerhandbuchs' beleuchtet, welche theologischen Implikationen mit der Vorbereitung auf die Ikonenmalerei einhergehen und der Anfertigung von Ikonen innewohnen. Ein besonderer Fokus wird dabei auf die Christologie wie auch auf die Mariologie gelegt und damit deren Bedeutung nachgezeichnet.

Die genannten Rollen werde ich im theoretischen Teil definieren und dessen Merkmale genauer erläutern.Jeder Mensch kommt im Laufe seines Lebens an den Punkt, wo er sich aus verschiedenen Gründen mit anderen Leuten zu einer Gruppe zusammenschließt und sich in diese auch integrieren muss. Dies geschieht meistens dann, wenn man mit komplexen Lagen oder Aufgaben konfrontiert wird, welche in einer Gruppe einfacher zu lösen sind. Jedoch beginnt die Gruppenbildung bereits kurz nach der Geburt, das Neugeborene benötigt Zuwendung, Ernährung und Wärme durch andere Personen. Das geschieht durch die Gruppierung des Familienverbandes, in der der Mensch hineingeboren wurde. Somit lässt sich bereits an diesem Punkt der Arbeit sagen, dass gerade weil der Mensch andere Menschen zum Überleben benötigt, sich immer wieder in Gruppen aufhält und interagiert, welche er gar nicht als Gruppe wahrnimmt. Von Kindesbeinen an werden so von unterschiedlichsten Gruppen Werte, Normen und Ideen vermittelt, sogar mitgestaltet und verschiedene Rollen in Gruppen eingenommen. Die Interaktion und das Leben in Gruppen sind also von der Geburt, über die Schulzeit, bis hin zur Berufswelt und dem Freundeskreis allgegenwärtig.Es gibt zahlreiche Vorteile, die das Individuum in einer Gruppe erfahren wird. In der Gemeinschaft fühlt sich die Einzelperson stärker, die Hemmschwelle wird gesenkt, man traut sich Sachen, die man allein nicht getan hätte. Eine gemeinsame Interessenvertretung wird gebildet, es entstehen gemeinsame Vorlieben welche in der Gruppe zusammen ausgelebt werden können. Anerkennung ist eines der am höchsten einzustufenden Vorteile, da jeder Mensch nach ihr strebt. Aber es gibt auch negativen Seiten, diese können Spott, Erniedrigung und Unverständnis sein. Der 'Gruppenzwang' ist hier als ein weiterer schlechter Aspekt zu nennen und der Ausstieg aus einer Gruppe kann sich schwieriger gestalten als gedacht. So ist es möglich, dass Kriminalität und Gewalt in Gruppen häufiger auftreten.

Es wird darauf eingegangen, wie unterschiedlich die Zufuhr von Cannabisprodukten wirkt, was die Wirkung beeinflusst und welche möglichen positivesowie negative Folgen einhergehen können. Auch das Krankheitsbild der Schizophrenie soll in dieser Arbeit aufgezeigt werden.Die verschiedenen Arten des Krankheitsverlaufs spielen dabei eine zentrale Rolle, ebenso wie die unterschiedlichen Formen der Schizophrenie, was diese kennzeichnet und wie sie sich unterscheiden.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Interkulturelle Pädagogik, Note: 2,0, Universität Hildesheim (Stiftung), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Heterogenität der deutschen Gesellschaft hat sich in den letzten Jahren durch die gesteigerte Ein- und Auswanderung stark verändert. Die Diversität von Sprachen und Kulturen stellt dabei sowohl die Einwanderer als auch die bestehende Gesellschaft vor große Herausforderungen. Dies gilt besonders für die Schule, da die PISA-Studien gezeigt haben, dass Migranten bei schulischen Leistungen im Schnitt schlechter abschneiden. Welches Potenzial bietet Sport für die Integration In dieser Arbeit soll der Zusammenhang zwischen Sport und Integration und die Integrationsrealität in Deutschland kritisch betrachtet werden.Dazu werden theoretische Ansätze wie der humankapitalistische Ansatz von Bourdieu angewendet, um mögliche gesellschaftliche Benachteiligungen aufzuzeigen, die der erfolgreichen Integration gegenüberstehen.Um über die Sinnhaftigkeit des Sports als Integrationsmöglichkeit zu urteilen, wird das integrative Potenzial untersucht. Damit differenzierte und realitätsnahe Ergebnisse entstehen, wird die reale Integrationsleistung des Sports überprüft und bewertet. Die Ergebnisse werden zusammengeführt und verglichen um abschätzen zu können, ob es realitätsnahe Alternativen zum Sport gibt.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 1,3, , Veranstaltung: Digitales Marketing und Social Media, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Zielsetzung dieser Hausarbeit ist es, am Beispiel der ERGO Direkt eine Customer Journey Mapping mit Persona-Konstruktion zu erstellen. Dabei steht insbesondere die Analyse der bestehenden digitalen Marketing- und Vertriebsmaßnahmen des Direktversicherers im Vordergrund, welche mittels einer Analyse der Customer Journey optimiert wird.Gleichzeitig wird eine Persona entwickelt, zu der sich geeignete digitale Touchpoints und Vertriebsmaßnahmen entlang der Customer Journey identifizieren lassen. Abschließend werden anhand ausgewählter Touchpoints entlang der Customer Journey der ERGO Direkt Optimierungspotenziale identifiziert und daraus geeignete Maßnahmen abgeleitet.Das zweite Kapitel dieser Hausarbeit thematisiert die theoretischen und wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen. Dabei werden die Begriffe 'Customer Journey' und 'Customer Journey Mapping' definiert, voneinander abgegrenzt sowie anhand von theoretischen Konzepten und wissenschaftlichen Modellen näher spezifiziert. Zusätzlich werden drei wesentliche Kennzahlen zur Messung einer Customer Journey identifiziert und vorgestellt. Ferner wird das Konzept einer 'Persona' betrachtet sowie die dazugehörigen Ansätze zur Entwicklung aus wissenschaftlicher Perspektive eruiert. Abschließend werden die Begriffe 'Touchpoint' und 'Touchpoint Management' mit Hilfe von theoretischen Konzepten definiert und voneinander abgegrenzt.Das dritte Kapitel, der methodische Teil, behandelt die Entwicklung einer geeigneten Persona am Beispiel der ERGO Direkt. Dabei wird auf das bereits im zweiten Kapitel spezifizierte Konzept der Persona näher eingegangen und visuell mit Hilfe eines Steckbriefs dargestellt. Daran gekoppelt wird eine Customer Journey entwickelt, um die definierten Inhalte zu konkretisieren. Abgerundet wird das Kapitel mit der Identifikation von relevanten Kennzahlen an den entsprechenden Touchpoints. Dabei werden Annahmen zum jeweiligen Zielerreichungsgrad abgeleitet sowie Optimierungspotenziale anhand der einzelnen Touchpoints identifiziert und dazugehörige Maßnahmen eruiert.Das vierte Kapitel fokussiert die kritische Reflexion der dargelegten Maßnahmen. Zudem werden die sich daraus ergebenden Herausforderungen betrachtet und kritisch hinterfragt. Abschließend werden im letzten Kapitel die prägnantesten Erkenntnisse und Handlungsempfehlungen konsolidiert und ein Ausblick auf die Zukunft gegeben. 36 pp. Deutsch.
