Chapter Summaries
1. Introduction: This introductory chapter sets the stage for the internship report. It begins by presenting a timetable of classes observed during the practicum, offering a glimpse into the scheduling and subject distribution. Following this, the chapter provides a detailed description of the abc-Gymnasium, highlighting the welcoming atmosphere, helpful teachers, and the smooth integration of the intern into the school environment. The author emphasizes the collaborative nature of their experience and the opportunity to choose subjects and grade levels for observation, allowing for a comparative analysis of teaching styles and student behavior across different year groups.
