Continuous assessment of course work

This seminar on didactics for teacher trainees prepares students for practical teaching. Future teachers of Psychology individually work on the content and didactic presentation of a freely chosen topic from the fields listed in the subtitle. The topic should be adapted appropriately for concrete lessons. Special importance will be attached to both scientific foundation and relevance to real-life situations. The choice of topics is based on the current syllabus.
Necessary background information should prepare the students for their concrete work in class and help avoid typical mistakes of beginners (e.g. legal regulations and current developments; excursions and practical training; current textbooks; appropriate rhetoric and body language, use of media and presentation techniques; assessment etc.)
