Learning unit contents

Presenting the course description: objectives, programmes, requirements, evaluation criteria
Exploring secondary education in general: organization, forms, organizing bodies, curriculums, inspection etc.
Exploring economic sciences curriculums and their contents
Micro-teaching exercice
Information sources in economic sciences (books, periodicals, courses, manuals, websites etc.). The critical evaluation of sources, especially those available on the internet. Please note: the search for infomation here focuses on the teacher's own needs.
Examining notional content: carrying out and handing in a written synthesis (group work)
Some testimonies from teachers of economic sciences
In line with the course on general didactics (especially as regards the didactic triangle "teacher - knowledge - learner"), exploration of the main didactic principles applied to economic and management sciences (skills, objectives, context, pedagogical supports, induction or deduction, focuses, coherence, individualization, socialization, interdisciplinarity, teaching styles, learning organizing principles, assessment).
Exploration of didactic principles (end): assessing learning (functions of assessment, assessing skills, assessing, teaching objectives, specification table, question types, scoring procedures, assessment quality cycle: SMART approach - assessment and remediation).
The inverted class: discovering the pedagogical approach and putting it into practice
Getting further with the approach through the various skills (task families) and assessment

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

In accordance with the HEC Liège skills reference framework:

in a skills-oriented approach
promoting experiential learning through facing problem-situations
enhancing the theory-practice conjunction
taking into account student classes specifics
taking into account legal and administrative constraints regarding the organization of education in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation

students will be able to: - plan teaching classes depending on legal reference documents, - build learning modules based on problem-situations and integrate student-oriented management taking the latter's complexity into account, - take account of student classes specifics, - enhance learning though qualitative teacher-student interactions, - engage in a critical approach. They will also be able to: - apply and integrate the main themes of general didactics within economic and management sciences, especially teaching, learning and assessment processes. - acquaint themselves with didactic transposition, including epistemology, specific didactics, interdisciplinarity, media and NIT supports. - explore and adapt to didactic and interdisciplinary contents so as to meet final skills requirements and training profiles corresponding to the students' level. - find out about the practical reality of secondary education and, particularly, that of economic and management sciences. - master disciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge justifying pedagogical action. - enable the prospective teacher to experiment, observe, analyse the various components of teaching, to integrate and act over the time of internships in a given school context (school, classes, internship mentor, school community). - learn how to manage a student group's learning and interpersonal relationships within that group, in the classroom and within a class context (communication). - taking distance and reflecting critically on the teaching practices and on one's own teaching so as to develop professional skills and attitudes.
