The main focus of the professorship for "Didactics of the German Language" lies in the teaching processes of literal competences. Here, we pay special attention to oral and written aspects in all language teaching/learning contexts. The diagnosis and support in the field of individual learning needs is particularly important to us.

Together with the staff, we have built up the specialized library "Language" with literature and specific offers as a learning and working space. In this way, projects such as "LehrWEP", „SprachBiP“, „PluraL“, "S3" or „Förderunterricht Deutsch als Zweitsprache“ (see below) can each be developed further and thus continue to initiate, promote and accompany voluntary work by students in cooperation with various practice partners*. Students can acquire the DaZ certificate parallel to their compulsory studies under the responsibility of the professorship.

Cooperations
The department "Didactics of the German Language" cooperates with school and non-school partners in order to support children, adolescents and young adults in the acquisition of the German language and to open up fields of practical experience for students.
