Didactically the LVA is laid out according to the contents to be imparted as well as the training degree on experience learning (constructivist), i.e. the lecturers understand the LVA (contents contact hours, the provided materials, the setting of tasks as well as the support / consultation) as a way on which the students, their knowledge processual in the given framework as far as possible independently acquire.
Here (as far as this is possible from the number of participants and the spatial framework) the previous knowledge, the perceptions and the understanding of meaning of the students are taken into account.
