Collaborator: Stefan Kruft

Duration: 2016 - 2017

Teacher training courses (Bachelor and Master of Education) qualify students for both academic degrees in educational sciences with a focus on vocational or business education and subject didactics for the vocational specialisation and the second teaching subject and practical school studies as well as subject sciences within the vocational specialisation and subject sciences for the second teaching subject. The pedagogical training for teachers in health professions, if required at all at an academic level, also goes its own way here. The aim of the project is to examine whether and, if so, how the Master's programme in Pedagogy for Nursing and Health Professions could be transformed into a two-tier model that qualifies both for the subject area of health at vocational schools and for pedagogical work at vocational schools in the health sector. Insights into possible obstacles created by legal regulations and opportunities to overcome them are expected.
