Exam Update #12

It's seems the days are getting better and better, and so do the exams.

History Didactics is a subject I never really studied, which was due to the lack of seminars with a competent lecturer or a competent person in that field at all. The professor used to have his seminars on a bench outside the library and this is true: no seminar when it's raining!!!! So I don't really know anything about teaching history in school.

My topics today were "Pictures in the history classroom" and "Memorial Didactics". It was interesting to read about the topics and I had the feeling that I really learn something I will need in the classroom.

The exam was absolutely relaxed, we laughed in between. However, the exam was extremely demanding and his questions were tough. Still, I never felt uncomfy. I was surprised when he told me afterwards that I possess "natural authority" and they expect me to be a good teacher with the ability to "grip" the students. I was a bit flattered, but happy.

But this was not all, because then he asked me if I ever considered a PHD in history didactics, he would be happy to surport me. As I have English as my second, I should give a thought about a bilingual-history-project. He told me to finish my exams, have a good bottle of wine and then think about it in a relaxed atmosphere!

... so we will see!
