DLL 1 "Teaching Competence and Lesson Planning"

About DLL Basis Unit 1

Our decisions as teachers determine what goes on in our classrooms. What informs those decisions? How do we define good teaching? What are the unique challenges we face? How do we create and sustain an anxiety-free, motivating, and supportive learning environment? How do we steer the learning process and accompany our students along the path to success? How can we as teachers further develop ourselves professionally?
