Systematic Competence Acquisition

In the fourteen chapters of the book, the topics of the curriculum are developed under a specific subject-related competence. This way, each content is always linked to a competence:

• Each chapter includes a double page dedicated to competence acquisition, where learning takes place through an example and is practiced in an application task.
• 14 learning tasks support the competence training and offer differentiation options.
• Goal formulations at the beginning of each chapter and test pages for reviewing and applying what has been learned at the end of the chapter create transparency for the learners and support their motivation.

Three Steps to Understanding Texts: The findings from reading research are consistently taken into account. All texts are worked on and processed in three steps:

• Activate prior knowledge
• Work on the text
• Further work: Establish follow-up communication.
