Aspects of professionalism: Professional positions concerning the topic of gender and disability; reflective practice in relation to the categories of gender and disability, e.g. from the perspective of so-called practices of addressing.
Gender and disability should be considered as a cross-sectional topic in as many courses as possible. The aspects heterogeneity, difference, diversity and inclusion are of particular interest and should be explicitly addressed. They can be implemented both in introductory courses (historical and theoretical basics of the subject), but also in practice-related courses and courses that foster professional self-reflection. The latter implies e.g. learning diaries, case and video vignettes, but also field explorations, which look at the topic through participant observation and other survey techniques.
