| Abstract | - Basic conditions for tuition (MAR - recognition of Matura certificates - curricula, standards), selection of topics and reduction of the complexity of topics. - Application of teaching methods and techniques from educational science in biology classes. - Planning and preparation of lessons. - Assessing learning performance (forms of examination/assessment). |
| Learning objective | - Students can discuss and put into practice in their teaching work the conditions and objectives set out in the regulations governing the school-leaving examination (Matura), the framework curriculum and the conditions and objectives specified by their school. - They are in a position to select learning objectives and formulate these on the basis of the target level model. They can plan and prepare lessons and can also develop appropriate learning assignments. - Students can reconstruct specialist contents in didactic terms and develop teaching modules suitable for the different levels from these on the basis of the subject structure and learner requirements. - They can reduce the complexity of subject-based specialist contents and present them in such a way that they are comprehensible and meaningful for learners. - They can select appropriate media for their work (e.g. school books) and use these. They can employ appropriate experiments. - The students can use different forms of examination for monitoring performance. - Students are in a position to implement and discuss the concepts of biology teaching and learning on the basis of specific topics covered in school biology. |
