Education and training at school can only be successful if teachers, learners, guardians, social workers, psychologists, and others work together effectively. However, strangeness and conflicts often burden the atmosphere. To understand the problem, Professor Gisela Stein describes psychosocial mechanisms in everyday school life and offers practical solutions. In this second edition, the author provides essential new details on topics such as social education at school, gender specificity, and gender equality. Gisela Stein has written the book in an ambitious and reader-friendly manner. School-relevant theories are consistently illustrated with everyday practical examples. Problem-solving approaches are empirically founded and generally comprehensible. The book focuses on all groups of people who work in the school context.
