Action- and production-oriented literature lessons (eBook)

Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject Didactics for the subject German - Pedagogy, Linguistics, grade: 1,0, University of Würzburg, language: English, abstract: In writing didactics, the action and production-oriented approach has a central position today. The beginnings of the teaching concept lie in the 1970s, although there were already tendencies towards this type of writing lessons before that. In the 1990s, action and production orientation found its way into curricula; writing on texts is now an integral part of German lessons.
In the following, after a clarification of terms, the most important basic principles of action- and production-oriented literature lessons are to be shown and on the basis of which the necessity of action- and production-oriented German lessons is to be justified. The historical development is then shown and finally some of the action- and production-oriented methods for teaching are presented. The conclusion of the work should be a specially devised project to show how forms of action and production orientation can be realized in the classroom. Schiller's drama Maria Stuart was chosen for this purpose.
