AbstractThe mentored paper is designed to bring together the findings from the 701-0823-00L Environmental Education Didactics I Information and the 701-0825-10L Environmental Education Didactics II. By using various teaching techniques and methods a semester plan, which is based on various curricula will be ellaborated for a given topic.
Learning objective1. The students have planned a curriculum for a semester course.

2. Students reflect on formative and summative ways such a teaching unit to examine and implement parts of it.

3. The students have implemented parts of the semester curriculum.

4. The students deal with the question to what extend teaching techniques, teaching methods but also sequences of self-study must be involved in the planning.
ContentSemester Planning
The students plan on the basis of the given curricula a teaching sequence. The resulting learning process is divided in phases with respect to a reasonable rhythm selecting different teaching methods.

Contents
The students consider different principles (eg exemplarity, competence-orientation, systematic knowledge building), so that learners understand the contents and relate them to professional practice.

Self-study
The students deal with various forms of self-study (moderated self-study, learning journal, PBL, case studies, etc.) and their integration in the semester plan. In addition to the formulation and determination of elements for self-study, they consider how they can check their effectiveness.

Tests
The students use adequate various types of examinations. They consider formative and summative ways. For this purpose they formulate test questions and tasks to match the objectives in the curriculum and semester schedule. The use of appropriate literature is required

Literature Study
The mentored assessment requires a specific study of literature which must be cited accordingly.
Lecture notesA manual gives the students a guideline how to proceed.
LiteratureThe use of appropriate literature is part of the grading.

AbstractEnvironmental Education Didactics II covers the planning, implementation and reflection of comprehensive teaching units. The major focus will be put on an intensive discussion of the didactical analysis and the use of extensive teaching methods. The objective is a selective and effective use.
Learning objectiveThe objective is to compare and match educational models resp. teaching methods with current research findings.
The students
- learn to make a detailed analysis of didactic lessons to learn a broad topic by different sources, they will review, procure materials and reflect on the relevance of the topic of their choice and access to vocational, technical, didactic, and possibly social terms.
- make a semester plan autonomously.
- use and reflect on appropriate teaching methods in the context of various teaching-learning strategies within practice lessons.
- arrange the conditions of teaching for their target groups.

AbstractStudents apply the insights, abilities and skills they have acquired within the context of an educational institution. They observe 10 lessons and teach 20 lessons independently. Two of them are as assessed as Examination Lessons.
Learning objective- Students use their specialist-subject, educational-science and subject-didactics training to draw up concepts for teaching.
- They are able to assess the significance of tuition topics for their subject from different angles (including interdisciplinary angles) and impart these to their pupils.
- They learn the skills of the teaching trade.
- They practise finding the balance between instruction and openness so that pupils can and, indeed, must make their own cognitive contribution.
- They learn to assess pupils' work.
- Together with the teacher in charge of their teacher training, the students constantly evaluate their own performance.
ContentThe students will be able to watch and evaluate the teaching of collegues and experts. They get profit out of their teaching experiances not only when preparing but also when teaching. Doing so they will be supported by their mentors.
Two lessons of the course will be split off for the examination - procedure.
