Rhineland University of Education

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pädagogische Hochschule Rheinland existed from 1965 to 1980 and was responsible for training primary and secondary school teachers as well as special school teachers in the Rhenish part of North Rhine-Westphalia . It arose from the amalgamation of several universities of teacher education and was dissolved by integrating the locations into universities.

organization

From 1965 to 1980 the PH Rheinland consisted of departments in different locations:

Of the other originally Rhenish PH still existed in the PH Ruhr from 1965 to 1972

  • Department Kettwig / from 1968 Duisburg
  • Food department

All departments were merged into the assigned universities in 1972 and 1980 and were integrated as pedagogical faculties .

history

From 1930 to 1932 the building of the Bonn Pedagogical Academy was rebuilt under the supervision of the architect Otto Hodler .

In 1945 the National Socialist teacher training ended. The Pedagogical Academies were newly established, following on from the Weimar Republic with a shorter study period and a religious orientation. The educational academies in North Rhine-Westphalia (Aachen (cath.), Bonn (simultaneous), Kettwig (ev.) And Essen (cath.)) Could not yet remedy the teacher shortage after 1945 . The British military government , for example, called for additional facilities for teacher training for elementary school teachers . In autumn 1946, a further educational academy was established in Oberhausen (Catholic, dissolved in 1953), Wuppertal (Protestant) and Cologne (Catholic). According to the will of their founders - especially Joseph Antz (1880–1960) - these academies were to provide university-level training for elementary school teachers based on the Prussian model, without the expense of university studies. On November 18, 1946, the Cologne Academy began with 13 lecturers and 194 students in the so-called special emergency course under the school pedagogue Josef Esterhues (1885-1970).

For a long time, the academies lacked an independent legal character. They remained an appendage of the Ministry of Culture under Ministerialrat Joseph Antz. It was not until the “Provisional Statute of the Pedagogical Academies of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia” in 1954 that a rectorate constitution and a limited right of professors to supplement themselves were offered. The extension from the four-semester to the six-semester course, the requirement for a broader educational component and the introduction of an elective subject related to a subject in 1957 contributed to the further scientification.

The renaming in Pedagogical University (1962) was only nominal. It was not until the education laws of 1965 to 1970 that the education system was expanded, and the universities of education in North Rhine-Westphalia became scientific institutions. With the end of denominational loyalty (1969), the stipend equal rights of PH professors and university professors , as well as the presentation of the Diplomierungs - Habilitation - (1968) Promotion Law (1970) they had become scientific universities.
