Tietoa
Yleistä tietoa kurssista
The training is aimed at teachers of “Sachunterricht“ and computer science (grades 5 and 6). The aim is to provide a digitally-supported opportunity for the professionalization at the transition from “Sachunterricht“ to subject-specific instruction at lower secondary level education. The focus is on professionalizing an action-oriented promotion of technological problem-solving at the intersection with Computational Thinking (CT). The training is designed as an adaptive online course, offering practical insights, a variety of suggestions for teaching, and supportive materials for conducting training sessions.
Sisältö
Kurssin sisältö
The online course consists of four modules. Each module can be completed independently from one another according to individual needs:1. Theoretical Background – (Digital) Media in School An introduction to (digital) tools and their integration into teaching.
2. Problem Solving from primary to secondary level education Designing the use of problem-solving with (digital) media in the classroom through pedagogical, methodological, and digitally supported approaches.
3. Educational Videos for and by Children Practical examples, guidelines for the creation and use of explainer videos, as well as criteria for selecting appropriate videos for classroom use.
4. Escape Rooms – A Method for the Future? Exploring, evaluating, and assessing digitally supported escape rooms as an innovative educational method.
Each module provides theoretical backgrounds, specific practical suggestions, and opportunities for self-assessment to reflect on one’s individual learning progress.
Kurssin tavoitteet
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
... understand and critically apply theoretical and subject-specific foundations in the fields of media education, problem-solving strategies (computational thinking).
... promote students’ problem-solving competencies, become familiar with age-appropriate tasks, and independently explore activities that promote problem-oriented thinking.
... manage the transition from generalist to subject-specific teaching in an inclusion-sensitive manner and identify key aspects for cross-grade-level collaboration.
... implement spiral curriculum principles to effectively transfer content from primary-level to lower secondary subject teaching, thereby enabling sustainable competence development.
... expand their individual digital competencies through the use of selected educational tools.
... recognize ways to promote students’ digital competencies, both in terms of content-related and process-related skills.
... gain practical insights and implementation strategies for both teaching and professional development in order to design action-oriented and motivating learning environments supported by digital media.
