The worksheet aims to provide students with a deep understanding of a pedagogical theory. Students apply central technical terms, transfer theoretical concepts to pedagogical scenarios, and reflect on the relevance of the theory for practical application.
Content and methods:
The focus is on the application, in-depth exploration, and critical reflection of an educational theory. Methodologically, the worksheet combines the translation of technical terms into everyday language, cooperative group work via an expert group method, the elaboration and presentation of subject-specific content, the development of practical case studies, the analysis of different positions and arguments, as well as a concluding reflection and self-assessment.
Competencies:
Target group and level:
Adult students or trainees in the field of social pedagogy, particularly aspiring educators.
Note on further work: The worksheet serves to deepen and apply a pedagogical theory. It can build upon an introductory worksheet and forms the foundation for further tasks in which theoretical concepts are applied to more complex practical examples and critically reflected upon. Introductory worksheet on the topic: Theories – Fundamentals
Note: Internet access is required for the group research phase.
The worksheet aims to provide students with a fundamental understanding of a specific theory within the field. Students are expected to grasp the theory's core assumptions, contextualize technical terms, and recognize the significance of theoretical explanatory approaches for analyzing, interpreting, and reflecting on subject-specific contexts.
Content and Methods:
The focus is on the core idea of the respective theory, key technical terms, and important theorists, as well as their relevance to understanding subject-specific phenomena, processes, or practical situations. Methodologically, the worksheet combines image analysis, hypothesis generation, work with texts, structuring information via a study card, subject-specific review through a terminology puzzle, and a final self-assessment.
Competencies:
Target Group and Level:
Students or trainees in the field of social pedagogy, particularly aspiring educators. The level of difficulty ranges from basic to intermediate.
Objective: The worksheet raises learners' awareness of the potential of artificial intelligence to promote inclusion and accessibility. The aim is to understand how technological assistance systems can increase the independence of people with disabilities in everyday life.
Content and methods: The content includes an introduction to AI-supported assistance functions for people with disabilities, basic knowledge about this form of disability, typical barriers in everyday life, and ethical issues relating to data protection, accessibility, and the relationship between human and technical support. This is supplemented by practical case studies and the development of students' own app ideas as an application of what they have learned. The methods include the assignment and analysis of specific AI functions, theoretical impulses with hypothesis formation, empathic role-playing, scenario-based case work, creative project work on app design, and structured reflection and discussion phases on ethical aspects.
Competencies:
Target group and level: Grade 8 and above
Objective: The worksheet aims to teach learners de-escalation and prevention strategies for dealing with violence. It is designed to raise awareness of the causes and forms of violence and to train learners in the ability to act professionally and non-violently in stressful situations.
Content and methods: The worksheet defines violence as the use of physical or psychological means to harm or control others. It identifies stress, overload, and a lack of de-escalation strategies as common causes. Prevention strategies are presented at the individual, team, and institutional levels. The methods include listening to an audio scenario, answering fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice questions, and creating an infographic in which learners are asked to develop de-escalation and prevention measures in a group setting.
Competences:
Target group and level: Trainees in the nursing profession and others interested in deescalation strategies
Objective: The worksheet aims to teach learners about the concept of body image disorder and raise their awareness of the psychological effects of medical changes. It is designed to enable future nursing staff to provide sensitive support to patients experiencing shame, insecurity, and anxiety about their changed bodies.
Content and methods: The worksheet begins with a definition of body image and explains how a disorder develops. It initially focuses on the causes of body image disorders. It highlights the emotional and social effects such as shame and social withdrawal. Solutions such as professional support and self-help groups are mentioned. Learners are asked to summarize the text and answer open-ended questions about the effects of beauty ideals and media representations on body image. An exercise invites learners to reflect on their own body image and write a short letter to their body.
Skills:
Target group and level: Students and trainees
Objective: The worksheet aims to sensitize learners to the dynamics of power and self-determination in nursing care in order to practice preventive strategies against violence.
Contents and methods: The core of the worksheet is a role-play that simulates a stressful situation between a nurse and a patient. Learners take on roles such as caregiver, patient, and observer to first reenact the situation as it often occurs in everyday life and then develop a violence-preventive alternative. Detailed role cards provide guidance on portraying emotions such as fear, anger, and frustration. Concluding reflection questions serve to analyze the situations played out and transfer them to everyday practice.
Skills:
Target group and level: The worksheet is aimed at people in nursing professions or in training.
Objective: The worksheet aims to enable learners to reflect on their own feelings in stressful situations and to provide them with strategies for dealing with emotional stress.
Content and methods: Learners are asked about the most common emotions in their everyday and asked to describe a stressful situation. A dialogue scenario between an overwhelmed nurse and a patient serves as an example. Methods include completing checklists and answering open-ended questions to reflect on one's own behavior. Finally, new coping strategies are collected and presented in a mind map.
Skills:
Target group and level: The worksheet is aimed at trainees in nursing professions.
Objective: The worksheet aims to teach learners the basics of effective communication strategies in a selected context and encourage them to reflect on their own communication patterns.
Content and methods: The text describes key strategies such as active listening, “I” messages, and empathy. Methods include multiple-choice questions, filling out a table with examples of strategies, reflection questions about one's own experiences, and a reference to a YouTube video for further analysis.
Competencies:
Target group and level: Students and trainees
Objective: The worksheet aims to explain the concept of different coping strategies to learners.
Content and methods: It defines a selected coping strategy. Methods include matching situations to strategies and open-ended questions for personal reflection.

SDG:
Objective: The worksheet aims to teach learners about the different methodological approaches to emotion analysis and help them recognize, analyze, and reflect on emotions.
Content and methods: It explains four approaches to emotion analysis: self-observation, behavioral observation, physiological measurements, and conversation-based analysis. Learners are asked to test their understanding of the text using closed and open questions. A practical task asks them to draw a person showing signs of a selected emotion and guess what emotion it is. Finally, they are asked to reflect on a situation in which they felt this emotion themselves.
Competencies:
Target group and level: Students and trainees
SDG:
Objective: The worksheet aims to address the selected emotion and guide learners in dealing with it constructively.
