Aim
This course focuses on orality as the basis for an appropriate and appreciative culture of conversation in classroom communication in all subjects and beyond for a social life. Subject-specific and subject–didactic fundamentals of orality are taught, and special attention is paid to school learning and social action. Methodological suggestions and concrete support for the children’s individual acquisition of skills at different starting levels come to the fore as focussed support in the considerations.
