The course aims to foster a debate on economic goals and topics within GW-classes (secondary level I and II) reflected upon from a didactic perspective.

Further goals are:

- Assessing the objectives of socio-economic education with particular regard to political education
- Analysing economic policies by taking into account important economic and sociological theories
- Working out adequate methods and materials for concrete socio-economic goals on secondary level I and II
Learned competences:
- Getting to know different ways to foster students‘ capability to analyse, decide, judge and act in an informed way in economically shaped situations in life
- Getting to know possible applications of socio-economic theories in GW-classes and their limitations
- Getting to know and examine adequate methods and materials for a politically informed socio-economic class using concrete examples (secondary level I and II)
- Using different forms of media to examine the didactical challenges in GW-classes
