The project promotes future teachers to develop and/or maintain a reflection in and on action in the course of their professional biography. For us, the reflection in and on action is the foundation for successful long-term teacher action. Like Leibniz, we see academic education as a unity of science, reflection on practice and moral responsibility. The Leibniz Principle is derived from competence- and structural-theoretical approaches towards teacher professionalism.
