Learning unit contents
Teaching placements
Practice teaching is made up of important steps in the progressive acquisition of teaching skills. Students working on course preparation and related tasks must apply themselves as diligently as possible to these tasks. The teaching intern must sign a statement promising to act with respect toward the institution, the intern director and the students he or she is given to instruct, in moral terms as well as pedagogical terms. This promise is a declaration on the part of the intern which will be made available to students, and which must be signed at the beginning of the year. Internships with teaching are opportunities for students to be exposed to different kinds of teaching, different ways of presenting material in class, and different kinds of publics (students).
Reflexive practical work
Students will be able to gain perspective with regard to their own teaching practice during teaching exercises and practice teaching; there will be many occasions for students to analyze their own practices in order to improve.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
This activity is participative, according to the student's choice between three possibilities : "aquarium visits, Study help Premier Bac ou taking part to Printemps des sciences"
Student can make proposals that should be ratified by didactics tachers
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Teaching placements
The principal objective of practice teaching is to put the future teacher in situations that he or she will encounter in professional practice. These teaching situations will lead future teachers to acquire skills as they pursue their initial training for the profession of teacher.
After practice classes are over, the student will be able to schedule a practice, to prepare a complete lesson plan for a class, to demonstrate a willingness to reflect upon his or her practice, and to study that practice in order to improve it.
Reflexive practical work
Upon completion of the course students should be able to: -analyse their practice in order to improve it, alone and in a group; -analyse the practice of others in order to enrich their vision of teaching in the sciences; -take into account their own representations of the profession in order to enable them to develop.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
The objective of these activities is for students to encounter the macroscopic context of teaching and the school; to look at students and their education in a different way; and to learn to work in a system.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Teaching placements
Having followed DD partim I course.
In order to be allowed to enter the teacher training programme, students must sign an internship protocol and must have participated on a regular basis in classes and exercises (attendance is verified) and have completed the active practice stages of DD partim I. If in the course of activities a lack of preparation is observed the faculty for special didactics in biology reserves the right to require individual students to remedy this lack and to demand that additional conditions be met prior to that student being allowed to practice teach. These activities can be postponed too. The student must observe the internship rules established for the classes of special didactics in biology.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Teaching placements
experimented teachers can be helpers in order to contribute to the construction of didactic sequences for each student's benefit, depending on what is asked for and the subjects involved.
Reflexive practical work
Return periods for stages and practical exercises will furnish opportunities for working on the practice of reflection with students.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
Students must choose one activity between 3 proposed and following it until the end

Additional information:
Second year: in January, 3-4 weeks, at the time of the Easter holiday, 2-3 weeks.
Students propose their internship directors to the Special Didactics Service for biology. Students will have a different supervisor for each of three stages of their training. Students must switch types of teacher training for a minimum of 10 course periods (10 x 50' of scientific training) ( professional or technique of qualification courses).
Students will make their exact internship schedule available at least one week before the beginning of the period, with the help of an on line form to be filled out. Hours spent doing practice teaching, etc., which are not scheduled in this manner in a timely fashion will not be counted.
The student who's teaching in a school could only validate 10 course periods in his school, in his own classes or not, according to didactic teachers' advice.
Each student will be observed during stages by didactics specialists. The internship report will be written according to instructions that are posted on eCampus and are downlaodable. This report will be available during all the practice.
Reflexive practical work
Blended learning
Additional information:
Time spent in reflection on practice is not necessarily separated from time in class or time spent doing exercises: post-internship discussions, analysis of shared practices, and discussion of practices are opportunities to work on this.
The return of the internship can be scheduled online (individual interview)
Extra-scholar teaching activities
according to the student's choice, throughout the training year. According to instructions.

Additional information:
During the internship (partim II) the student will be visited by the members of the Special Didactic Service for biology. This visit of the internship will be for purposes of certification. The purpose of the visit is to observe the context of work being performed, the practice teacher's strengths and weaknesses, and to verify progress in professional ability as a teacher (construction of professional identity). After the observation is concluded, the student will be able to discuss, if it's possible, any problems or questions with the didactic specialists. The grade for that part of the stage will be arrived at using a grid of criteria which will be shared with students and which can be downloaded from MyULiège. Written justifications will be given to students later on, along with the grade given.
The internship stage grades II will be calculated according from the grades from the didactic specialists (certificative visit 2) with the opinions of the internship directors will be taken into account by the visit and the reports.
No second session will be convened for the internships. No second session will be convened for the internships. If note is < 10/20, student will be postponed for this partim.
If preparation(s) for the course (s) of the day is (are) not present (s) during the visit, it will be sanctioned by an "Insuffisant" grade.
A stage schedule misinformed (false or incomplete address, wrong time) leading to an impossibility of visit can result in account deletion of five stage periods on 20.
