Shaping a Sustainable Future
(2022)
This book gives insights into important factors that are shaping effective learning for sustainability and describes innovative teaching formats that will enable students to contribute to a more sustainable world in their future role as decision makers. Basic concepts in the context of sustainability-related teaching and learning are defined and the relation between learning objectives, methods, skills and outcomes is conceptualised. The book’s detailed description of 23 teaching formats, including their learning objectives, course contents and structure, as well as applied methods aims at supporting lecturers and trainers in the design of their own teaching formats.

This work comprises several materials related to the innovative higher education teaching format “Engaging for Sustainability“. It aims to support educators in designing and implementing sustainability- and responsibility-related teaching by presenting the module description, the course outline, the teaching approaches, methods and exercises used as well as an resource overview. The work was developed within the framework of the ERASMUS+ project “EFFectiveness Of Responsibility Teaching“ (EFFORT) (see: https://effort.lehre.hwr-berlin.de/home).
The EFFORT Controlling Tool represents an instrument that can be used in order to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching formats related to sustainability and responsibility. It comprises two standardized questionnaires: a pre-course questionnaire that needs to be completed by format participants prior to participation and a post-course questionnaire that needs to be filled out afterwards. The work published here includes paper-pencil-versions of the pre- and post-course questionnaires along with some general information respective the tool and its application. It was developed within the framework of the ERASMUS+ project “EFFectiveness Of Responsibility Teaching“ (EFFORT) (see: https://effort.lehre.hwr-berlin.de/home).
This work shows the results of the effectiveness testing of several higher education teaching formats/courses that are dealing with sustainability and/or responsibility and presents a variety of factors influencing teaching effectiveness. It was developed within the framework of the ERASMUS+ project “EFFectiveness Of Responsibility Teaching“ (EFFORT) (see: https://effort.lehre.hwr-berlin.de/home).

Produktinnovationen und Produktmodifikationen in der Versicherungswirtschaft zwischen 2006 und 2017
(2020)
Die vorliegende empirische Untersuchung erfasst die Produkt-innovationen und Produktmodifikationen im deutschen Versicherungsmarkt für Pri-vatkunden; sie schließt an eine frühere Erhebung von 1996 bis 2005 an und un-tersucht die weitere Entwicklung der Produktneuerungen zwischen 2006 und 2017.Im theoretischen Teil werden begriffliche Grundlagen geklärt, die förderlichen undhinderlichen Rahmenbedingungen der Neuproduktentwicklung reflektiert sowie Ar-beitshypothesen abgeleitet. Im empirischen Teil werden im Privatkundengeschäft1457 Produktneuerungen identifiziert, davon sind 79 Produktinnovationen und 1378Produktmodifikationen. Damit hat die Anzahl der Produktneuerungen im Vergleichzum früheren Zeitraum deutlich zugenommen und sich von durchschnittlich 65auf 121 Produkte pro Jahr fast verdoppelt. Nach wie vor gibt es mit fast 95%der Produktneuerungen erheblich mehr Produktmodifikationen als Produktinnovati-onen. Sowohl in der Lebens-, als auch in der Krankenversicherung wird nach wie vorein Großteil der Produktneuerungen durchpolitisch-rechtliche Anstöße verursacht.Klassische Lebensversicherungsprodukte mit Garantiezins werden zunehmend vonAlternativen ohne Garantien ersetzt. In der Schaden-/Unfallversicherung sind Pro-duktneuerungen demgegenüber oft Technologie- oder Risiko-induziert. Mithin hatdas Produktneuerungsgebaren der Versicherer im deutschen Privatkundenmarkt inden zurückliegenden 12 Jahren – wenngleich auf moderatem Niveau – offensichtlichzugenommen, und das in allen Versicherungszweiggruppen.
The author investigates the different influences of labor shortage on wages in firms with or without collective bargaining agreements. In addition to training, technological solutions, and organizational flexibility, employers can also offer higher wages at a constant employment level to fill vacancies if the current payments are lower than the marginal revenue of the workers. Firms with collective bargaining agreements probably already pay wages according to marginal revenue or, in the case of rent sharing, above it, and the remuneration is probably also not adjusted. Using wage regressions with panel data for German establishments, this paper shows that collective bargaining and a lack of skilled workers can lead to higher wages. However, the latter only applies to firms that are not bound by collective agreements. Hence, wage differentials between these firms decrease, providing further explanation for a countercyclical development of the wage premium from the collective bargaining agreement.
Models of labor demand usually use cost or production functions to derive profit-maximizing firm performance. These models often rely on the assumption of symmetrical behavior,i.e., the response to a positive or negative wage shock of the same relative size is identical to theshock, and the estimated labor demand elasticities are the same for increasing and decreasingemployment. However, behavioral economics models like loss aversion and endowment effectsquestion the assumption of symmetry in labor demand. In addition, the influence of a labor shortageshould be reflected in the investigations. Estimations of Fractional Panel Probit models for threedifferent skill levels are applied to evaluate these findings with a large panel of Germanestablishments. The results indicate asymmetrical structures for long-run own-wage elasticities andfor some cross-wage elasticities, putting some doubt on the assumption of strict rationality in labordemand and indicating the influence of labor shortages.
Lebenszyklus-Management von Immobilien stellt systematisch Möglichkeiten zum Messen und Optimieren der vielfältigen Ressourcen-Effekte im Lebenszyklus von Immobilien dar. Die Anforderungen an Gebäude verändern sich: sie sollen nicht nur flächen- und energieeffizient sein, sondern Energie auch "ernten", speichern und ggf. Dritten verfügbar machen. Zudem wird künftig außer der Kostenbilanz für den Lebenszyklus auch die Umweltbilanz von Gebäuden oder von Instandsetzungs-Alternativen verglichen werden. In diesem Buch werden die dafür benötigten Methoden erläutert und beispielhaft angewendet, u.a. für die Ermittlung von Lebenszykluskosten, Ökobilanz, insbesondere Carbon Footprint und die Nachhaltigkeit von Bewirtschaftungsprozessen. Optimierungsstrategien und Fallbeispiele zeigen mögliche Anwendungen der vorgestellten Methoden. Spannend ist der Vergleich von nachhaltigen Gebäudekonzepten anhand verschiedener Kennzahlen und Messkonzepte.
Purpose
In a service society, the assessment of climate-relevant environmental impacts of services is of increased importance. In the few Product Category Rules (PCRs) for cleaning services available to date, it is noticeable that employee mobility and service-related management are excluded from the assessment. This practice is critically questioned in the following study. The aim is to show that a calculation of the carbon footprint of services that integrates employee mobility and service-related management provides a better basis for finding ways to reduce their environmental impact.
Methods
Key figures on the CO2e emissions of services are examined in exemplary case studies using the example of cleaning, maintenance and reception with regard to the possible share of emissions caused by employee mobility and service-related management activities. For the case studies located in Germany, characteristic values of the equipment, operating materials or mobility used for the service are obtained from available Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). In the absence of EPDs, a simplified estimate is made according to the VERUM method based on the proportion of materials in the product. The case studies compare the carbon footprint of a service by omitting and including employee mobility and service-related management.
Results
The analysed case studies show an impact share between 32 and 69% for employee mobility and between 10 and 26% for service-related management activities in an integrated carbon footprint of services. The emissions caused by employee mobility and service-related management therefore have a dimension that should not be neglected.
Conclusions
From these findings, the necessity is derived to include the emissions from the mobility of operational staff and service-related management in future PCRs for services in order to improve the comparability of services. Optimisation efforts of companies must also start at these points of the service organisation.
