Bildungsziele und erwartete Lernergebnisse (zus. Informationen)


Art der Prüfung
Written interim examinations and interdisciplinary oral final examination. In the event of a negative assessment for the entire module examination, the module examination must be repeated. However, any successfully passed partial examinations will be considered as already passed at the next attempt to take the entire module examination. It should be borne in mind that, even in this case, a negative assessment of the entire module will be counted towards the number of attempts available to take an examination. It should be borne in mind that according to the Regulations for Examinations, if a student fails an examination in three consecutive attempts, he/she may not enrol for the same examination in the three sessions following the last attempt (Art. 6, para. 4 of the current Regulations for Proficiency Examinations).

Bewertungskriterien
The examination provides a single final mark. For the written tests, the following are considered and assessed: relevance, logical structure, clarity of argument, lexical appropriateness and completeness. In relation to the oral examination (as well as performances and simulations), the following are considered and assessed: relevance, clarity of argument, capacity for critical analysis, ability to rework and reflect on the experience gained within the module, demonstrating basic ability to transpose theory into practice and to read theory into practice.

Module C — Allgemeine Didaktik: Planung und Evaluation

This course aims to consolidate students' theoretical and practical competences in advanced general didactics, with a specific focus on building educational relationships and competence-based curriculum design. Starting from the principles of the Feuerstein Method (intentionality and reciprocity, transcendence, mediation of meaning), the course explores how to establish an authentic and productive relationship between teacher and learner, which is fundamental for any educational context (from early childhood to primary school). Subsequently, the course delves into Biggs' Constructive Alignment model, guiding students in defining expected learning outcomes, designing effective learning units, and implementing formative and summative assessment strategies, including rubric construction and the importance of feedback. Particular attention is given to the critical and conscious use of digital technologies and artificial intelligence to support teaching and assessment. The course is highly practical, designed to develop skills directly applicable in the school environment.
