Course content

This course is part of the full-time, post graduate teacher training program (PPU). Alongside courses in pedagogy and practice, it will enable the candidate to serve as a teacher from year 5 to year 13. Guided practice is an integrated part of the programme. The course covers all aspects of teaching and students' learning within the subjects. Learning consists of both cognitive and affective factors, such as motivation, attitudes, identity and emotions. The course provides a basis for planning, implementing, assessing and reflecting upon teaching, based on research- and experience-based knowledge and theory. The learning aims for this course also include being able to analyze and see connections between a variety of perspectives, theories and research studies. Knowledge and insight into subject-didactic theory and research provides the competence needed to improve own practice and the school's activities, and to carry out systematic research and development work in school.

Learning methods and activities

Subject-didactics within this teacher training programme is taught over two semesters. Realization of the course objectives requires an interplay between subject disciplinary competence, teaching competence, acquisition of subject didactical theories and terminologies as well as reflection on own teaching practice and cooperation with the practice school. Teaching sessions will be varied and with exemplary working methods. There will be teaching both in the form of large and smaller groups with or without teacher guidance. Cross-curricular work will also be in focus through a group-based Research and Development project (R&D), including a process report. The R&D project will be executed in one of the student's two subject-didactical courses.
