Didaktisch-methodische Perspektiven auf nationale Stereotype: Facetten einer unterrichtspraktischen Konkretisierung

Abstract

In this article we address a central theme of how lessons in German and Danish that sensitise students for national clichés (stereotypes) can be designed. By introducing the training aids that support a language teaching about German and Danish clichés, we move concrete materials and results from teaching lessons in German and Danish schools as well as other educational institutions in the centre of our focus. Programmatically, a didactic-methodical model of sensitisation, reflexion and criticism is explained. Theoretical and terminological differentiations on the subject areas stereotype and stereotyping and to dimensions of stereotypes refer to the topical linguistic and social-psychological research discussion. Thoughts on the verisi-militude of national stereotypes from a didactic view decide the contribution.
