The aims and tasks of the "Didactics of Sachunterricht" department are to further develop and promote the teaching of Sachunterricht in primary schools through practice-orientated teaching in initial and further education as well as didactically sound research.

The department is concerned with teaching and learning processes in subject teaching at various levels:

• Lesson development
  What conditions in the school, in a teaching staff or in the organisational structures are conducive to supporting lesson development in subject teaching?
• Teachers
  What structures, offerings and further education do teachers need in order to be able to address and use the upcoming changes (digitalisation, inclusion, curriculum changes, etc.)?
  What professional skills do teachers have and use in their lesson planning and lesson design, and what impact does this have on general knowledge lessons and pupils?
• Pupils
  What learning prerequisites, attitudes and values do pupils bring with them to general knowledge lessons?
  How can pupils be supported and encouraged in their skills development?
• Analogue and digital teaching and learning opportunities
  How should e.g. student materials be designed to support students in their skills development
  What role do digital media play in teaching and learning processes?
