van hun repertoire richting– onderzoekend leren– verbinden van beroepspraktijk met schoolvakken

Aims (from proposal)

• A widespread uptake of inquiry-based science teaching (IBST) in primary and secondary schools

• Connect IBST in school with the World of Work (WoW)

Methode

• Inventariseren van best practices (vooral lesmaterialen voor IBST en WoW die zich in reguliere lespraktijk bewezen hebben)

• Opzetten van learning communities van docenten en vertegenwoordigers van bedrijfsleven en beroepsopleidingen

• Ontwikkelen en uitvoeren van een scholings-programma voor lerarenopleiding en nascholing

Werkpakket Lesmaterialen

• Identify examples • Clarify concepts• Develop guidelines• Exemplary materials• National collections• Enlargement • Final package

• Jan. 2013 – Jul. 2014• Jan. 2013 – Jul. 2013• Mar. 2013 – Jul. 2014• Jun. 2013 – Jul. 2014• Jul. 2014 – Sep. 2014• Okt. 2014 – ...• ...

Huidige werk

• Voorbeeldmateriaal verzamelen en classificeren

• Categorieën beroepscontexten identificeren voor lesmateriaal

Parking problem Pilot

• Lek & Linge• Spanje

the task

• Some constraints:• 1. There are to be two parking places for

disabled people.• 2. There are to be six parking places for

motorbikes.• 3. There has to a 5mx5m stairwell.• Etc.

Pilot

• secondary education• two lessons

• at first the teacher thought: this is quite open...

• students were working very good on this task

Vandaag: Pekel

• Samen even kijken

• 'Open' vs 'Gesloten'

• Hoe maak je docenten bewust van de taak-kenmerken die IBL (en WoW) ondersteunen

Choosing Tasks

• Choose the three best Mascil-tasks from the repository (order 1 to 3)

• Describe in terms of the Mascil Diagram (the bubbles). Underpin your choice

• Take one task from your country as an example (doesn't need to be in english)

Mascil WP3 objectives

Deliverable• Identify examples of

classroom materials• Develop guidelines for

teachers for developing IBST-oriented classroom materials

• Produce exemplary materials

Current product• Online repository

• Guidelines document, final round of remarks

• by month 18

Program Tu. May 6 – 14:45-15:45

1. Mascil (re)design Guidelines (and diagram)2. Mascil Classroom materials

– Examples: Parking problem, Brine

3. Next steps

MASCIL (RE)DESIGN GUIDELINES1

Mascil (re)design Guidelines

• Guidelines for teachers for developing IBST-oriented classroom materials for science and mathematics using workplace contexts from industry

What we did after Crete (Jan.-Apr.)

• Thanks for your comments!• We reworked the document:

– shorter– examples– closer relation with the PD toolkit (WP4 and WP5)

Comments from Crete

• Well grounded in literature but still presented in a clear straightforward way (with diagram)

• Make sure subject content knowledge is addressed.

• Show strategies to open a closed task• Guidelines to evaluate/assess• Etc.

Document: Building blocks

• Theoretical background• Task characteristics in relation to IBL• Task characteristics in relation to WoW• Summary of guidelines• Examples

Diagram

question for today

1. Comment on each of the building blocks

2. Enter numbers to highlight a preferred sequence of the blocks

• Please discuss in your group (about 10 minutes), write down the results & hand-in

• Between Crete and Innsbruck we piloted some of the materials

• This problem was piloted in the Netherlands and other places

the task

• Some constraints:• 1. There are to be two parking places for

disabled people.• 2. There are to be six parking places for

motorbikes.• 3. There has to a 5mx5m stairwell.• Etc.

own language (July, 1)• Translate the diagram (July, 1)• Please give your example(s) (top 3)

today/tomorrow to Vincent• If you didn't bring your own example to

Innsbruck: your second chance is the PoM (WP9)!

Other issues

• we need examples for primary education!!!

• connection with your national websites
