 |
| All year long |
 |
Course contents :
 |
| The course is intended to bring to the students three complementary and mandatory activities:
1. The active participation to pedagogic activity related to physics experiment sessions with students (mainly) from the 1st and 2nd Bachelor degree.
2. The achievement of original physics experiments. Students will have to imagine and mount themselves from equipment available in the lab.
3. The achievement of an external observation training session, in Research Institutes, Industries, other Universities, or even secondary schools. |
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| The main objective of this course is to make the students discover the multiple facets of Physician's job. This approach should help them to make a choice between the orientations that they will face when entering in Master degree. |
 |
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| Notions of TeX editor, learned during the second year of Bachelor in Physics, will be very helpful to prepare the required reports. |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| There is no experimental directed activities but students will be facing to an experimental work requiring a personal research |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| First four-month period:
Participation to the pedagogic activity related to physics experiment sessions (3 x 3 h), optionally extended over the second four-month period.
Second four-month period:
The external training session will be probably organized during the first full week of the second four-month period. The related report and oral presentation will be required by the end of this period.
The lab experiments will be prepared and presented during the second four-month period. |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
 |
| No note course is foreseen.
However, in the frame of the pedagogic preparation of physics experiment sessions, a copy of the booklet which is distributed to the Bachelor students to be supported will be available. |
 |
Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| The final grade will be weighted following the rule below:
1. Pedagogic experiment sessions: 30%
2. Lab experiments: 40%
3. External training sessions: 30%
In case of non attendance to one of these sessions, without official motivation (disease or exceptional circumstances), the final quotation will be entered as ABSENT.
If a second exam session is required, no additional training session is organized.
Instead, a re-writing of the training or lab report(s) or a new oral presentation report would be organized. Moreover, if the student weakness is related to the pedagogic experiment sessions, an oral exam would consist in presenting (concept explanation) and practically proceeding with a physics experiment. |
 |
Work placement(s) :
 |
| The internship (contribution to the activities of monitoring of bachelor students during physics labs) is organized during the first four-month period.
The external training session is usually organized during the first full week of the second four-month period. The final agenda will be determined jointly by the training responsible and the student. |
