Course content
Through in-depth studies and independent research work the students will gain practice in methodical and systematic work on a problem within natural science didactics. The assignment will be based on a scientific investigation starting with a problem relevant to teaching and learning the natural sciences in school or communicating the natural sciences in other contexts. Tutorials will ensure technical, methodical and text-critical feedback for the student during the course of the assignment and are a compulsory part of the study. Tutorials also involve the required checks on data collection and processing and general research techniques. Special guidelines have been prepared for the master thesis.

The master thesis has requirements governing which students may undertake it, which means that the subject is reserved for students who are selected for the master in subject didactics, natural science didactics branch of studies.
