Publication Access status: Open Access , Betriebserkundung „online“? Geht das?The domain-specific teaching method of company exploration represents a central com-ponent in the vocational orientation of students. As a variant of direct practical contact, students gain an insight into a company during a company exploration. The increasing number of possible occupations that require training and of study opportunities, however, lead to the fact that nowadays it is becoming increasingly more difficult for young adults to sufficiently inform themselves about the different offers available. Especially adoles-cents from rural areas or underage adolescents face the problem that the company they would like to become acquainted with or the occupation they are interested in are not accessible to them. Therefore, the possibility of an online company exploration is represented in the following essay. Is it possible to explore a company via the internet? Which technical devices can be used for this purpose? How can an online company exploration be designed and realized?Source Type:BookSeries:Siegener Beiträge zur ökonomischen BildungVolume number:51226 820 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Open Access , Financial literacy of adults in Germany FILSA study resultsThe steady growing of online financial services due to the vanishing of on-site banking offers is changing the socio-economic framework individuals make financial decisions in. Financial literacy as an essential part of basic education is therefore also subject to changes. In order to investigate the individual competence of the respondents with regard to financially determined life situations, a digital questionnaire survey with integrated simulation sequences was conducted. For this purpose, a testing instrument (FILSA—Financial Literacy Study of Adults) has been developed to measure the financial literacy of adults. The validity of the construct including its five content areas was tested and the relationships between the manifest exogenous variables and financial literacy were mapped in a structural equation model. It introduces the participants (N = 212) to various financial problems and offers specific aids for founded decision-making. The study’s evaluation system takes into account the participants’ individual behavior in three case studies as well as the impact of attitude and socio-demographic factors on their decisions and behaviors, such as gender, age, and their degree of internet affinity. FILSA examines how adults make decisions with regard to finances and what benefit or impact online tools and financial advisors have on the decision-making process. Furthermore, it is possible to develop concepts for self-learning that are comprised in online tools for decision-making.Source Type:Article1 6
