In the LArS project (2020-2022), a cross-university team at the universities of Dortmund, Duisburg-Essen and Wuppertal, as well as the Leipzig University, is developing freely accessible animated instructional videos for the professionalization of prospective teachers in social science subjects (politics, economics-politics, social studies, and social sciences). An anthology will soon be published by Springer VS. More information can be found on the project website.
We are assessing the use of the developed materials and video clips for the Department of Education and teacher training at the Leipzig University. Emphasis is also put on Civic Education.
