The aim of this thesis is to compare the competitive educational trends in Geography teaching between Germany and Slovenia. Initially, the research will explore the global general and pedagogical scientific framework, followed by an in-depth examination of the differentiated didactic and specific frames of compulsory general education in both countries. The thesis will provide an analysis, comparison, and evaluation of the pedagogical discussions related to the implementation of competence concepts in compulsory general education, as well as theoretical discussions, arguments, classification, delimitation, genesis, and development of the leading competitive guidelines of the modern school system in Germany and Slovenia. Additionally, the thesis will closely examine the PISA research results of both states to present key findings that may correlate with the effects of schooling reforms on the evidence of competences. Furthermore, the thesis will present the geographic-specific perspectives of the subject and the presented topic, highlighting the contribution of school Geography to education and the acquisition of geographic competences. The research will also investigate concrete normative solutions for placing competences in the planning and execution of Geography lessons in Slovenian and Hessen lesson plans or curriculum. Finally, the thesis will conclude with an analysis, comparison, and evaluation of selected exercises from textbooks in both countries, with content or topics related to the European area, in the context of gaining geographic competences. |
