This talk is directed especially towards all of those of you who are new to teaching, but also to everyone who likes to reflect his/her own teaching and learning processes.
I obtained my first appointment as a lecturer quite late, that is, two weeks before I defended my dissertation.

Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde,
dieses Jahr lade ich Euch Thesismitglieder aus Berlin und Umgebung alle ganz herzlich zum Glühweinvernichten in meine Wohnung ein. Da ich erst dieses Jahr Heizkörper in alle Räume bekommen habe, ist dieser Abend gleichzeitig eine "house warming party" im wörtlichen Sinne! Ich sorge für Glühwein, eine nichtalkoholische Alternative und ein paar Häppchen. Damit ich ungefähr planen kann, wäre es toll, wenn Ihr Euch bis zum 10.12. anmelden könntet. Außerdem freue ich mich über Eure Beiträge zum Buffet.
Herzliche Grüße,
Eure Grazia
"In public discourse, immigrants are often perceived and depicted as a threat. The fact that they belong to a different religion, mainly Islam, is said to have a big influence on their integration process. In order to isolate the impact of religion on the integration process, I examine the extreme case of countries in which almost the whole population belongs to a single religion and thus, the majority religion is deeply connected with national identity. Is religion the factor which determines how minorities integrate? Or do other factors play a part?"
