DLL’s innovative concept has been developed with the daily actions and challenges of classroom teachers in mind. Traditional topics, such as the teaching of skills, grammar, vocabulary, phonetics, literature, organizational forms, etc. are integrated into a competence and practice-oriented concept of further education.
DLL’s didactic concept of further education is based on action or teacher oriented theory: learning in the classroom should be optimized by the fact that one observes and reflects on one’s own lessons and that of others, recognizes new courses of actions and applies them in his/her lessons.
Assistance from video clip excerpts and the usage of Practical Exploration Projects (PEPs) enable teachers to reflect on and update their existing skills and apply any new insights in their lessons.
Furthermore, joint training in an international participant group, within the framework of DLL, offers the opportunity for direct exchanges with motivated colleagues regarding lessons.
Each DLL unit is published as a book with an attached DVD by the Klett-Langenscheidt publishing house, but can also be used and interacted with via the learning platform of the Goethe-Institut. Thus, DLL offers teachers the greatest possible flexibility in the individual planning of their further education.
