Course content
Students do their teaching practice in pairs. Each student is responsible for teaching 6 lessons planned in collaboration with a colleague. The student also participates as an observer or assistant. Subsequently, he/she also reflects on the lesson with his/her colleague, often in collaboration with the teacher mentor. A total of 12 lessons will be delivered in pairs. The students continuously process and reflect on their experiences and findings in writing and then discuss their findings in methodology classes.
