Learning unit contents

Dropout may designate the fact of not being interested any more in the school work,  the fact of giving up school, or to leave the education system with a low level of qualification. Dropout is the outcome of a long cumulative process of disengagement which results from an interaction between school and socio-family factors. This process can take root in the very first contacts with the school.
During the lessons, factors occurring in the process of early school leaving at various stages of the schooling will be identified and put in connection with educational practices which can be exploited with the aim of reducing the early school leaving.
The practical work has been adapted to the health crisis. Students will analyze whether the relationship between the families and the school has potentially improved or deteriorated following the confinement of spring 2020. This questioning will allow the practical sessions to be carried out at distance, if necessary.
 

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

Students will work one of the two following skills:
1. Describe, analyze, decode educational / training situations in context by referring to the conceptual frameworks from the field of science education.

  • Describe the elements of these situations, describe their context and explain their interactions at various levels of the system
  • Distinguish levels of analysis (individual, groupal, institutional ...).
  • Distinguish descriptive, interpretive and prescriptive discourses.
  •  Question these situations with reference to frameworks.
  • Incorporate in its analyzes various contexts with formative and educational issues as well as the age range affected by these issues.
2. Develop, support, evaluate and properly implement education / training situations, responding to an issue by mobilizing scientific knowledge relevant with regard to the context and the involved people.
  • Argue a position with regard to an education / training issue referring adequately to an educational point of view.
  • Analyze the context and characteristics of audiences to define needs and priorities.
  • Design, plan and control individual or collective education/training plans and interventions tailored to the needs and characteristics of public and feasibility in context.
The skills needed to work as a team will be taught during the practical lessons.
 

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

It is highly recommended to have passed, or to take at the same time the course  PEDA4021-1 An Introduction to Education and Training Sciences - Ariane Baye

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The theoretical course will be based on oral presentations supported by power points. Documentary resources will be put at the disposal of the students.
The practical work will be supported by the "soft skills" team of the PSGO. It will allow students to decentralize by analyzing potentially critical speeches with regard to the school. They will allow students to familiarize themselves with the criteria of an scientific work written on the model of a scientific article. Formative feedbacks are planned.
 

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)

Face-to-face. Meetings with pedagogical staff are mandatory.
It will no longer be possible to join the group teams once working groups are working.
 

Organisational adjustments related to the current health context

Theoretical courses will be given on eCampus.   Meetings for practical work and formative feedback will be provided on eCampus.   The oral part of the exam can be presented either on eCampus or as a video sent by the student.  

Recommended or required readings

Documentary resources and power pointswill be put at the disposal of the students on e-campus.

Assessment methods and criteria

Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.

Two parties will be involved in the final evaluatio.
Please note - both parts of the assessment must be completed to obtain a grade for the course. Any serious failure (7/20) for one of the two parts causes a serious deficiency for the entire course.
30% of the mark correspond to an individual oral exam (in the form of a video posted on eCampus or oral at distnace).
It will show its ability to make connections between one of the speakers of the course and the theoretical concepts while demonstrating the ability to ask different angles on the same reality: personal, professional and societal.
70% of the match note to TP report (the criteria will be presented at and worked at the discussion tables.
Dates:
Submission of the report on January 6, 2021.
Oral exam: to be agreed with the teacher.
Feedback on exams:
Wednesday, February 2 2021, between 13h30-15h30.
Registration required by January 27 at the latest. Contact the service via the address: aide@uliege.be
