Schulpraktische

Schulpraktische is a German adjective used to describe elements related to practical, school-based activity. It appears mainly in compound nouns such as schulpraktische Übungen (school-practical exercises), schulpraktische Erfahrungen (school-based experiences), and schulpraktische Lernformen (school-oriented forms of learning). The term emphasizes hands-on, experiential aspects of education as distinct from purely theoretical study.

Usage and contexts: In teacher education and training, schulpraktische components connect theory with classroom reality. Schulpraktische Übungen are supervised teaching activities, micro-lessons, and demonstrations conducted by student teachers in partner schools. In many German-speaking education systems, an obligatory Schulpraktikum or schulpraktische Phasen are embedded in degree programs to provide real-world classroom experience. In vocational education, schulpraktische Anteile describe school-based elements of apprenticeship or dual training, complementing workplace training with observation, practice, and reflection.

Notes: The term is primarily used in German-speaking contexts. It can apply to both primary and secondary education, and to university programs in education, as well as to related fields where school settings form part of the training. While closely related to Praxis and the concept of practical experience, schulpraktische emphasizes the school-specific, practice-based dimension.
