In doing so, the students deepen their knowledge and understanding of the chosen topic and create learning arrangements that diversify and enhance teaching practice.
Finally, the students connect the topics covered over the past semesters, interlink different theories and teaching approaches and evaluate their relevance for their future teaching.
