In addition, topics such as teaching and learning processes in mathematics and the preparation of diversified mathematical tasks for exercises, problem-solving and model calculations with the help of the mathematical abilities that have been acquired are dealt with in courses of specialised didactics and in the preparation and supervision of the mandatory school internship. In the relevant seminars, certain situations in the didactics of algebra, stochastics, analysis and geometry are covered in more detail.
