After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

  • describe the offers of computer science education in the Austrian education system,
  • select a theme for a shared (group) presentation,
  • plan cooperation in a group for presentation,
  • enumerate the influencing factors and planning principles for a presentation or a lesson
  • apply these influencing factors,
  • select suitable (especially electronic) media,
  • justify the expected learning outcomes of the presentation,
  • present the selected topic as a group together and interactively,
  • evaluate the result of the presentation.

Subject of course

Pedagogical theories, planning of presentations and lessons, media for computer science lessons, practice in the form of presentations.

Teaching methods

  • Joint development of educational focuses for a fictive target group
  • Applying educational models in computer science education
  • Discussion of educational case studies

Additional information

The preliminary meeting will be conducted via Zoom. The further procedure is agreed upon.possible.

I intend to hold the theory part partly as a face-to-face event and partly in distance learning. In any case, the presentations should be held in person.

The reservation of lecture halls is not easy in SS 2023 due to a number of necessary rules: The number of participants is only clear after the preliminary meeting and the dates can still change if there are too many collisions with other lecturers. Since I have my own seminar room in the 19th district near Linnéplatz, I can offer this room for face-to-face events. This makes it much easier to choose an appointment. Before the preliminary meeting, please consider whether you agree to attending face-to-face events in the 19th district.

Further details on the process and registration - especially on group formation - at the preliminary meeting. The presentations are group work, ideally groups of 3 people each.

In recent semesters we have agreed to always hold all theory courses on the same day of the week. If this regulation is also desired in the summer semester 2023, my suggestion is 8 dates (plus reserve date), each on Thursday, 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Other days of the week or times can be agreed upon in the preliminary meeting. Every working day is possible except Tuesday and Wednesday.

Suggestions for the theoretical part (blocked): every Thursday from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., except during the semester break.

In the preliminary discussion, (further) focal points of the seminar can also be determined together. Possible focus areas: "Python in the classroom", "Progressive Web Apps", "IoT and ioBroker". I ask for your suggestions.

The documents for the LVA are made available via TUWEL.

In the last few semesters, the use of Telegram has also proven itself, especially for inquiries, discussions and information that should be made available quickly. => Registration link . Registrations are now possible. Please use a user ID that shows a connection to your name.
Didactic and pedagogical basic knowledge is desired, but in any case an interest in these topics. Historical and theoretical backgrounds are also conveyed. The seminar is aimed at everyone who wants or has to give a lecture on computer science topics, not just active or future teachers.

The presentations will be held as face-to-face events on the following days. Suggestions for the presentations: June 14 to 16, 2023.
Guideline for the duration of the presentation: 25 minutes per group member.

Cost estimation:

15 h attendance in the preparatory phase
35 h elaboration of the term paper
20 h presentation and presence in other presentations
  5 h follow-up (documentation)
------------------------------
75 h = 3 ECTS

Examination modalities

The seminar requires a willingness to discuss methodological and didactic topics. The focus of the assessment is the practical part, ie the presentation of the chosen topic by the group. All other participants assume the role of the target group defined by the presentation group. The following points should be noted:

  • Description of the target group and the (fictitious) prior knowledge of the target group
  • Describe the expected learning outcomes after the presentation
  • Creative selection of suitable media
  • Perform the presentation
  • Collaboration in the group
  • Success control after the presentation
  • Submission of a summary draft
