239740 Specialization and Research Module: Betreuungsseminar für profilbezogene Praxisstudien Profil: English as a Foreign Language (Grundschule) (BS) (SoSe 2012)

This seminar will prepare participants for their internship. Therefore we will concentrate on a variety of school- and teaching-related aspects.
First, the focus will be on practical aspects that are related to soft skills, like approaching whose classes we would like to observe or behaving in the classroom. After that we will consider the role of classroom observation. In connection with that we will explore a number of relevant observation tasks.
Finally, the focus will be on lesson planning and the evaluation of lesson plans. In this context, the requirements of the curriculum will also come into consideration.
Participants are expected to design a plan for a teaching unit and to put it to the test with the seminar group (micro-teaching presentation).
There will be an introductory session at the beginning of the semester where we will meet to sort out problems.
