The Mentored Work aims at teaching students to combine theoretical topics from their didactic education with practical aspects and to articulate the results in written form. The choice of the topic and the definition of the content is made in agreement between the students and the lecturer.

In the mentored thesis the contents of the lectures on didactics of the subjects are put into practice and further developed. Under guidance, either teaching material providing high learning effectiveness shall be created or a specific theme is to be analyzed and reflected by considering aspects from research on learning and instruction.

Students apply the insights, abilities and skills they have acquired within the context of an educational institution. They observe 10 lessons and teach 20 lessons independently. Two of them are as assessed as Examination Lessons.
