Measurement and Evaluation Techniques Used in the Course
Based on the Constructivist Approach, methods based on research, discussion, observation and experiments with 5E will be used in accordance with week gains. Students will explore and research the relevant topic of the week with the preliminary preparations in accordance with the 5E model, and develop knowledge and skills about STEM and Interdisciplinary Science Education concepts, themes and contents. They will make improvements by getting feedbacks on the lesson plans developed and present a desired lesson plan in the classroom environment at the end of the term.
Evaluations are made by evaluating the lesson plans and activities prepared by the students with rubrics during the semester and providing feedbacks to the lesson plans; At the end of the semester, traditional (test or written exams) and alternative (concept map, meaning analysis table, structured grid) measurement and evaluation methods will be used.
In accordance with Bursa Uludağ University Education Regulation, a credit system is applied within the scope of this course as a feature of the education-training programs.
