Natural sciences (elective subjects biology, chemistry and physics) and social sciences (elective subjects history and social sciences), with the subject and didactic perspectives of the five sub-disciplines combined with the cross-subject, multi-perspective view of Sachunterricht; students develop, plan and reflect teaching-learning processes.
