Clinical Training³ During the Clinical Rotations

The content on this page was translated automatically.

Praxis³ is used as part of various school-based practical training programs. How Praxis³ is specifically integrated into your school-based practical training depends primarily on your teaching certification, your examination regulations, and the respective practical training phase.

This page provides an initial overview. Complete information on registration, practicum schedules, course requirements, practicum reports, and other organizational guidelines can be found on the respective pages of the Office for School-Based Practical Studies.

Which examination regulations apply to me?

What matters is not just when you began your studies, but which examination regulations currently govern your program. Students who began their studies before the 2023/24 winter semester may continue to study under older examination regulations or may have since switched to the new examination regulations.

If you are unsure which examination regulations apply to you, you can find the currently valid examination regulations and module handbooks on the pages for your teacher education program or core curriculum.

MPO 2023

Introductory Practicum

In the basic practicum, Praxis³ focuses in particular on helping students reflect on their competence development to date, their own suitability for the teaching profession, and the formulation of personal development goals.

Self-assessments and peer assessments can be used as a basis for joint counseling and reflection sessions.

About the Introductory Internship

Internship Semester

During the practicum semester, previous experiences and development goals are revisited and built upon. Self-assessments and peer evaluations support reflection on one’s own teaching practices and form the basis for joint consultation and reflection sessions.

About the Internship Semester

Previous Examination Regulations

Internship Semester – Older Examination Regulations

Students following the older examination regulations for L1 and L2 complete the former practicum semester. Separate regulations and materials apply to this practical phase.
Praxis³ also supports structured reflection on professional development, as well as work on development goals and self- and peer-assessments, during the practical semester under the older examination regulations.

About the Internship Semester – Older MPO

Practical School-Based Studies – L3

Students pursuing a teaching degree for high schools under the older examination regulations complete practical school placements. The specific requirements are based on the current examination regulations and, in the case of additional practical school placements, are partly determined by the respective subject.

About the School-Based Practicum

L4 and vocational teaching positions

For professional teacher education programs, separate program-specific and, in some cases, subject-specific regulations apply to the practical teaching component.

Whether and how Praxis³ is used during your specific practicum phase therefore depends on your program, your practicum phase, and the respective university supervision.

For organizational and examination-related requirements, please refer to the information on school-based practical training as well as the pages and examination regulations applicable to your program and subject area.

How does Praxis³ work in general?

Regardless of the specific practicum phase, Praxis³ links personal development goals with criteria-based self- and peer-assessments and supports their use in joint counseling and reflection sessions.
