"Lehramt.International" - Consultancy, analysis and policy dialogue (Module C)

[back to the main page of "Lehramt.International"]

Teacher education programmes are both highly complex and diverse in nature. The educational formats and legal requirements vary across the federal states. Stays abroad and international experience are rarely rewarded during a degree’s progression or in terms of professional career development.

To boost international mobility and the international nature of teacher education programmes, we seek to reach out to as many stakeholders as possible: the students themselves, teachers and higher education institutions and, in particular, policymakers at the Ministry of Schools and the Ministry of Innovation, Higher Education and Research in the federal states. This is where programme component C comes into its own, contributing to the attainment of the initiative’s objective via consultancy, networking, analysis and dialogue events:

Media campaign

The campaign "studieren weltweit - ERLEBE ES!" is designed specifically for teacher training students, who are reached directly via personal reports of student correspondents. You can find all articles to the topic "stays abroad during teacher training" here.
Those interested are welcome to order or download information to advise teacher training studentes. Furthermore, universities can book the campaign’s ambassadors with (or without) teaching experience for lectures or information days.

Policy dialogue and research

Further, module C comprises measures designed to network political stakeholders and decision-makers. On the basis of an analysis of the structural impediments to mobility in the field of teacher training degrees, regular policy-related dialogue events (involving state ministries, the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs (KMK), school authorities, teaching seminars, etc.) will be held, which will initially inform and sensitise, and subsequently also identify specific obstacles to mobility, and develop and implement proposals for their elimination.
