Intended learning outcomes
Having passed the course the student is expected to be able to:
– show advanced knowledge of formative and summative assessment in technical subjects.
- account for current research about teaching and learning technology in a determined field and discuss its relevance for the teaching in primary and/or upper-secondary school.
- discuss and evaluate exploratory working methods in the teaching of technical subjects.
- plan teaching for a longer period in accordance with current policy documents with reasonable progression and with regard to other school subjects and pupils' different interests.
– problematise and critically review the use of different teaching and learning resources (including but not restricted to digital resources) in teaching.
- contrast technical knowledge and skills against other skills and, based on this, discuss the place of the technical subjects in the education system
