EDSE 4400C - Secondary School Science Methods
This course prepares Adolescent-Young Adult teacher candidates with a broad-based understanding of central issues involved in the learning and teaching of science, and the nature of knowledge in science. These concepts are integrated into practical activities designed to prepare the candidates for teaching in actual science classrooms and in the community through the integration of service learning projects. Candidates are expected to design individual lessons and a unit that take into consideration national and state standards, classroom management, student safety, learning theory, assessment, the nature of science, and science in the community. Candidates are also expected to apply accurate science content, inquiry skills, and practices through class/field activities and assignments. As this is a service learning designated C course, students are required to actively participate in and reflect upon meaningful service commitments within the community. Travel to and from service learning sites is necessary and is organized collaboratively through our class. These service learning obligations require out of class time; however, all efforts are made to ensure that scheduling and service options are flexible and meet student professional needs and interests.
