05-GSD-SACH02.SE01 - Teaching Politics in Primary School

• Seminar Teaching Politics in Primary School

In Great Britain in particular, political education is gaining in importance, which is reflected in the emphasis on children's rights and in school curricula. It is true that questions of democracy learning have already been extensively discussed in the classroom. However, a discussion of the citizenship education introduced in Anne Sliwka's primary school pedagogy is still pending. Citizenship education places civil society initiatives at the center of biographically oriented educational processes. It develops concepts of service learning in which children take on service-related tasks in the community and develop them further in the sense of community participation. During the seminar, students will research existing approaches and concepts of democracy learning in the subject lessons of elementary school. The results will be presented and further didactical considerations in the context of democracy learning and citizenship education will be developed.
