The internships refer to two educational modules resulting from the above Ordinance and have the following forms:
1) the psychological and pedagogical internship (module 2) in the second year of undergraduate studies (30 hours) and
2) the teaching internship (module 3), offered in the second and third year of undergraduate studies as, respectively, elementary (60 hours) and advanced (60 hours) teaching internships.
Stage 1 of the student internship takes place in the second year and comprises:
a) the psychological and pedagogical internship (30 hours) and
b) the elementary teaching internship (60 hours)
Stage 2 of the student internship takes place in the third year and comprises:
a) the advanced the teaching internship (60 hours).
The objective of the psychological and pedagogical internship of Stage 1 is to gain experience of care and education work , learner group management and learners’ individual needs diagnosis, as well as to confront in practice the acquired psychological and pedagogical knowledge with pedagogical reality.
The purpose of the elementary teaching internship of Stage 1 and the advanced teaching internship of Stage 2 is to gain experience of teaching and educational work and to confront in practice the acquired knowledge of German teaching methodology and foreign language pedagogy with pedagogical reality.
Stage 1 of the student internship (second year of first cycle studies):
a) the psychological and pedagogical internship
The psychological and pedagogical internship is limited to Stage 1. It takes place in pre-schools, schools and other education institutions.
In course of the internship students familiarize themselves with the specifics of pre-school, various types of schools and other education institutions. They conduct observations of various classes as well as child care and educational activities, documenting them in appropriate observation sheets.
Issues for observation include: learner group activity, classroom interactions, communication, activities of teachers, school psychologist and educational advisor, and learner group dynamics.
During the psychological and pedagogical internship of Stage 1 students of German Studies interpret the observed phenomena and record their conclusions in observation sheets.
b) the elementary teaching internship
The elementary teaching internship of Stage 1 is fused with the psychological and pedagogical internship done in pre-schools, schools of various types and other educational institutions where the teaching of German (or possibly other foreign languages) takes place.
In course of the elementary teaching internship students conduct observations of: activities of teachers of German or other foreign languages; the methodological course of German lessons; methods, activities and teaching materials used (in German or other languages), classroom interactions; communication in German, other foreign languages and Polish; ways of activating and disciplining learners; learner assessment methods; ways of assigning and checking homework; group dynamics and classroom social order; functioning and involvement of individual learners (including those with special educational needs and those gifted); spatial arrangement of a language classroom. The results of observations are recorded by students in their observation sheets.
During the elementary teaching internship of Stage 1 the student of German Studies collaborates with a German teacher, gradually assuming various teacher tasks from planning, organizing and teaching a German lesson to analyzing and interpreting their own pedagogical and educational activities.
Stage 2 of the student internship (third year of first cycle studies):
a) the advanced teaching internship
The advanced teaching internship of Stage 2 is conditional on the completion of both the psychological and pedagogical internship and the elementary teaching internship in Stage 1.
The advanced teaching internship takes place in a pre-school or school offering instruction in German (or other foreign languages).
In course of the advanced teaching internship, the student of German Studies collaborates with the German teacher responsible for the internship and plays the role of German teacher at a chosen pre-school or primary school. In the event there is no German teacher in a given education institution, the responsibility for the internship may be assumed by another foreign language teacher or the school principal.

Students are expected to ensure language correctness of their independently prepared lesson scenarios and teaching materials in German.
