ILLSU
Inclusive teaching and learning settings in subject lessons
As part of the Higher Education Pact 2020 in the funding programme "Innovative Teaching and Learning Concepts: Innovation Plus" funding programme of the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK), Maja Brückmann (Institute of Educational Sciences), Anna-Maria Hintz and Tanja Jungmann (Institute of Special Needs Education and Rehabilitation) successfully submitted a proposal for funding, which will run over the 2021 and 2022 financial years (duration: 1 October 2021 to 30 September 2022) and was approved.
The aim of the project "Inclusive teaching and learning settings in subject teaching" (ILLSU) is to jointly develop and evaluate the module isb243 "Designing and evaluating inclusive teaching and learning settings" for students of special education and subject teaching in order to better prepare students for teaching in inclusive learning settings in the future.
The focus is on developing an innovative teaching concept that strengthens the subject of special needs education from an inclusion-related perspective and supports the training of students' professional competences in a research-based, process- and product-oriented manner. In order to be able to professionally meet the needs of as many pupils (SuS) as possible in a learning group in the future, even with a high level of diversity, the focus should be on structuring learning opportunities through common basic values and group and discussion rules based on these, classroom management based on Positive Behaviour Support (Carr et al, 2002) as well as relevant methods for designing language-sensitive (Leisen, 2013), language-promoting or language-pedagogical subject lessons (Reber & Schönauer-Schneider, 2019) through to the use of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and digital media (Willke, 2014) within the framework concept of scaffolding (Gibbons, 2002).
