The General Studies Teaching and Learning Laboratory and the Didactic Workshop (SULab) provide a learning space for content relevant to General Studies and new teaching methods in this subject, both in schools and at university. Through a range of activities, students, teachers and pupils alike can discover exciting experiments, interesting contexts, new technologies and methods here. To demonstrate the diversity of the subject of General Studies, ideas and projects are presented and actively tested, with the aim of sparking participants’ curiosity about innovative and action-oriented content and methods. Whether in analogue or digital form, all activities focus on experimentation, exploration and hands-on learning. The courses are generally run by teacher-training students in consultation with subject teachers and university lecturers, and may also cover specific topics, including collaborations with other out-of-school learning spaces (e.g. museums or similar).

In the project Source-based Learning in General Studies (QuaSU) , historical sources are adapted for use in General Studies in an engaging and playful way. The centre of attention is on selected sources relating to early modern ship captures provided by the cooperation partner of the Prize Papers project. The first topic-based learning modules have been developed using selected sources, e.g. writing and sealing letters as they did 300 years ago (letterlocking).
Further information on QuaSU can be found on the project page.
