Alignment
To accompany the first edition, publisher Ulrich Peters writes:
“We are convinced that our German people, despite all the symptoms of illness, are essentially healthy and that their recovery depends only on the German soul returning to itself. We cannot and do not want to master the times with intellectual considerations, but with a reflection on what is eternal in all changes in German ways of life, on the German national spirit. "
From the retrospective, Knut Engeler judges the direction of the magazine:
“The magazine should serve to elaborate the 'German educational ideal' and thus a 'German education' more clearly. She therefore turned to teachers of all types of school. Scientific treatises should not be included in the sheet, which was largely carried out. At the beginning, the focus is on program-conceptual treatises as well as practical teaching contributions. An attempt is made to determine the 'educational value' of history lessons in the German-speaking sense and to illustrate the new, work-school history lessons through practical reports and suggestions for work lessons. However, only a part of the articles is about history lessons. German studies itself, German lessons and cultural studies were increasingly the reference subjects or topics. Work lessons or work school were not explicitly named in connection with history lessons, but work lesson principles can be recognized in the practical reports. In connection with teaching materials and in the presentation of didactic concepts, work lessons or work schools are named. "
