Fachdidaktik [Subject Pedagogy] II
Orienting the training of physics teachers towards competences with the help of independent teaching units, peer review and reflection phases
Abstract
A learning scenario for a subject pedagogy course with a focus on competences.
Success factors
• Peer review of student project papers
• Reflecting on and evaluating personal project papers as a part of the performance assessment (oral examination)
• Low additional costs
Room for improvement
We will structure the self-learning phase more clearly and integrate additional explicit supervisory possibilities.
Opinion of students
Completely positive
Tips for lecturers
The way the course is organised requires keeping to a schedule of interim results. For example, the peer review can only take place if the course unit is available by a fixed deadline. Students do not always respect deadlines, which sometimes causes organisational problems.
