The DaF didactics course is designed as one of the most important parts of vocational training for German
teachers. It connects the knowledge acquired so far in the field and pedagogical-psychological with the contents of
general, but above all field-specific didactic training. The main goal of the course is to prepare the student to be
able to understand all aspects of teaching in the context of teaching German as a (second) foreign language in
Czech secondary schools and thus be prepared for the daily teaching reality in terms of subject-didactic. At the end
of the course, the student should understand the teaching process as a whole about many variables, which must
be able to take into account, evaluate, reflect and adapt to them the preparation, implementation and retrospective
evaluation of teaching results. The aim is also to form the student to be aware of the specifics of his future role as
a teacher, to be able to continue his education even after graduation and to implement teaching according to the
latest didactic knowledge. The student should view the teaching as a reflective practice. The aim of the course is
also to provide students with space to translate theory into real teaching practice, both in conjunction with the
course of continuous pedagogical practice, which takes place in parallel with the didactics course, and other
practices, but also in the form of reflected micro-teaching blocks, preparation of various types of tests and
discussions. over the possibilities of their evaluation and overall evaluation.<br>
All the above-mentioned acquired knowledge and skills are also reflected in the professional portfolio of the
student, to the continuous development of which he is guided throughout his studies. The portfolio is designed so
that the student stores in it during his studies everything related to his education and preparation for future
professions. It thus enables the reflection of one's own professional progress and at the same time enables the
access of other participants in teaching and the provision of feedback. The portfolio in the form in which it is
created also serves as a basis for the professional development of each student for evaluation at the final state
examination.<br>
In the winter semester, the course focuses on the more general framework of teaching, on the specifics of the
teacher's work, variables related to the pupil, and on the topics of goals, content, methods and means of teaching.
In the summer semester, the course focuses on the development of competences enabling a didactically
appropriate grasp of the basic components of German teaching with special attention to individual language
resources and speech skills. The course thus prepares students for the future career path of a teacher in very
specific outlines.
