Parts of the final state examination and its content
The Bachelor's State Examination is held in the form of a written test with 60 questions with a choice of one correct answer. 60 minutes are available for the test. The test items are in the range corresponding to the credit load of the following courses: introduction to pedagogy and psychology, theory and methodology of education, pedagogical communication, research in pedagogical practice, special and inclusive pedagogy, basics of pedagogical diagnostics, developmental and social psychology, assistantship. For each subject there are thematic areas with corresponding literature for study. A detailed overview of the thematic areas is published on the website of the Department of Education.
The content of the state final examination is as follows:
- English language and literature with didactics
- Defence of the bachelor thesis
- Pedagogical and psychological basis for the Bachelor's degree (detailed content and scope is given in Annex 1 of the Application)
English language and literature with didactics: The state final examination is designed as a written test. The areas of knowledge and skills to be demonstrated in the test include the content set out in the syllabuses of all compulsory linguistic, literary and cultural and didactic subjects. Emphasis is placed on the practical application of the knowledge acquired, e.g. in the form of critical work with a text. The test also assesses the level of written English (C1 according to the SERRJ). Spoken language at the same level is assessed in the examination of Practical Language 3A - C1 and in the Bachelor's thesis defence (if the candidate submits the Bachelor's thesis to the AJ Department, which is almost a rule in single-subject studies).
