Course contents :
|
| Please see the detailed descriptions of the different parts involved in this course.
 | | Observation placements |
|
| The students follow ten chemistry lessons given by secondary school teachers to become aware of the various learning and teaching approaches. |
| | Teaching placements |
|
| The students are in charge of one practicum during which they teach in secondary school classes under the supervision of experienced teachers. In addition to chemistry, they also teach a limited number of biology lessons. |
| | Reflexive practical work |
|
| Reflexive practices are based on the analysis, by the students and the members of the chemistry didactics group, of the practicum report, in order to define the appropriate feedback. |
|
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
|
| | Observation placements |
|
| The students are expected to acquire the first elements to define critically their personal approach to teaching. |
| | Teaching placements |
|
| At the end of this practicum, the future teachers are expected to master the basic competences that define a professional teacher. This first level of competences will be strengthened and extended during the two practicums of course AESS2219-1 (part II). |
| | Reflexive practical work |
|
| Reflexive practices are one of the many tools which should help the future teachers to:
- develop among their students a citizenship-oriented behaviour;
- contribute to the intellectual development of each student;
- guide the learning processes;
- promote the development of transferable skills;
- assess the results of their teaching practice;
- work in a team-oriented way;
- use efficiently modern communication techniques;
- follow the legal regulations involving safety and health in a chemical environment. |
|
|
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
|
|
| | Teaching placements |
|
| Active participation in the theoretical course and in the small-scale teaching exercices<br /><br /> - A good understanding of chemistry (bachelor level)
- Participation in the General Didactics Course |
|
|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
| |
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
|
| | Observation placements |
|
| The students choose themselves the lessons they are going to follow. They write a short report at the end. |
| | Teaching placements |
|
| The practicum will take place during the first semester 2012-2013.The students are in charge of finding themselves the secondary school and their supervisor(s).
The students receive a detailed written information about the organizational aspects.
This practicum is prepared by small-scale teaching exercises in the framework of the theoretical course (AESS1216-1) |
| | Reflexive practical work |
|
| Reflexive practices are organized at the end of the practicum, when a member of the chemistry didactics laboratory comes to assess a lesson, and when the report has been delivered. |
|
|
Recommended or required readings :
|
|
| | Observation placements |
|
| Curricula and chemistry textbooks for the secondary school. Bachelor chemistry textbooks as references. |
| | Teaching placements |
|
| Curricula and chemistry textbooks for the secondary schools. Bachelor level textbooks as references for the chemistry concepts. |
|
|
Assessment methods and criteria :
|
|
| | Observation placements |
|
| If necessary, the report is discussed with the student but it is not assessed. |
| | Teaching placements |
|
| The quality of the practicum is assessed both by the supervisor and by the members of the chemistry didactics group.
A report must be written by the student and will be assessed.
The practicum report must include a critical analysis of the work performed. |
| | Reflexive practical work |
|
| Reflexives practices are assessed together with the practicum report. The latter must include a critical analysis of the work performed. |
