This book provides a theoretical and pragmatic guide to the use of situated learning within structured interpreting programs. Proponents of situated learning theory believe that meaningful learning occurs when students interact with others in the social contexts in which they will be working. With such interactions, students have the opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge to authentic contexts that they will encounter throughout their professional lives. While a limited number of research articles exist about the use of situated learning in interpreter education, this is the first full book to provide the foundations for situated learning theory, show how to implement situated learning in interpreter education, and offer practical applications for maximizing authenticity in interpreting classrooms.

'The Minimalists show you how to disconnect from our conditioned material state and reconnect to our true essence: love people and use things.

Because once you have less, you can make room for the right kind of more.

The Acts of Pilate occasionally referred to as the Gospel of Pilate is a book of New Testament apocrypha. The dates of its accreted sections are uncertain, but scholars agree in assigning it to the middle of the fourth century. The main body of Acta Pilati is in two sections, with an appendix, Descensus ad Infernos-the Harrowing of Hell-that does not exist in the Greek texts, and is a later addition to the Latin versions. The first (chapters i-xi) contains the trial of Jesus based upon Luke 23. The second part (xii-xvi) regards the Resurrection. In it, Leucius and Charinus, the two souls raised from the dead after the Crucifixion, relate to the Sanhedrin the circumstances of the descent of Christ to Limbo. A literature of miracle-tale romance developed around a conflated "Leucius Charinus" as an author of further texts. The Harrowing of Hell episode depicts St Dismas accompanying Christ in Hell, and the deliverance of the righteous Old Testament patriarchs.

Das Buch knupft an dem vollstandig neuen Ansatz zur Analyse (langfristiger) Investitionsentscheidungen bei Beachtung von Unsicherheit und Irreversibilitat derselben an und baut diesen aus. Ausgehend von einer einzelwirtschaftlichen Investitionsentscheidung wird gezeigt, wie fortgesetzte Unsicherheit und Irreversibilitat einer Investition in reales Kapital diesen Entscheidungsprozess beeinflussen und wie die Implikationen fur die Ertragsrate des eingesetzten Kapitals sind. Dieser Ansatz nutzt die Analogie zur Theorie des Optionswertes wie sie von den Finanzmarkten bekannt ist, um eine neue Sichtweise des Investitionsvorgangs zu gewinnen. Die Anwendung/Ubertragung dieses Ansatzes auf die Fragestellung eines langfristigen Umweltproblems ist vollkommen neu und innovativ."
