Draft:Pedagogical Academy of Vienna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pedagogical Academy of Vienna (Austrian German Pädagogische Akademie der Stadt Wien) was a predecessor of the Vienna University College of Teacher Education (Pädagogische Hochschule Wien).[1] Located in Vienna's 10th district in Grenzackerstrasse, the institution has seen expansions since its founding in 1886 after many decades of calls for better education of primary and seminary school teachers.[citation needed]

Interwar period

[edit]

After World War I, the pedagogical reform movement of Otto Glöckel, member of the Social Democratic provincial government, instituted a compulsory four-semester course for teachers "against the opposition of the Christian-Social Party ("gegen den Widerstand der christlichsozialen Opposition"). Glöckel used the Pedagogical Academy for the training of the Viennese teachers.[citation needed]
