How do we accommodate for our lack of knowledge in areas we are not specialized in?
Is there specific training for teachers in Germany to help teachers teach certain subjects
What subjects do you teach on a daily basis in Germany
Germany looks at specialization as taking classes to specifically teach in certain areas
North Carolina, USA looks at specialization in terms of concentration and are extra classes taken in order to be a mini-expert on a subject. This is part of the initial lincensure/teaching certificate.
These sorts of international projects can be helpful for all of our future students to engage in. These projects help with global awareness and respect of other cultures.
To build our knowledge in the area we are not specialized in there are workshops,classes can be taken, talk to advisors for suggestions, gain knowledge through tutoring.
