Transformative Education in Higher Education at RPTU – Practical Examples from Module 1 of the Bachelor’s Degree Program in Teacher Education


Keynote presentation as part of the RPTU Transfer Day – Workshop “ESD in Teaching”

The presentation explored the concept of transformative education according to Mezirow (1978) and conceptually distinguished it from transformative learning as well as from additive educational approaches, emphasizing the necessary educational science foundation as opposed to purely politically driven applications (WBGU 2011). Using the example of two seminars from Module 1 of the Bachelor’s program in Teacher Education (1.7 “Professional Practice of Teachers at the Intersection of Special Education Support and Inclusive Education” and 1.8 “Special Education Counseling in Inclusive Settings (SoBiS)”) at RPTU, it was demonstrated how biographical work, systemic counseling skills, and non-judgmental spaces for reflection enable prospective teachers to shift their perspectives and develop new attitudes. The practical examples were linked to the Future Skills framework, as well as to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and the Inner Development Goals. In conclusion, four principles common to both seminar formats were identified—ambiguity competence, reflective capacity, counseling competence, and self-efficacy—which underpin transformative educational processes in teacher education.
