Overview

The objective of the Teaching Applications course is to prepare the student practically for the stage of practical education by providing opportunities for the student to practice teaching in various ways (teaching methods) within the college in order to acquire the teaching skills necessary to prepare for practical education on the one hand, and for teaching on the other hand. Through this course, the student applies (or is trained on) various modern teaching methods (depending on his specialization) that were covered during the general teaching methods and special teaching methods courses, including training in giving lessons, lesson planning, preparing questions, discussion, designing and correcting exams, dealing with students, evaluation and evaluation, classroom management, using technology in teaching, and all other skills and tasks performed by the teacher from all psychological, behavioral and scientific aspects.

Intended learning outcomes

1. Identify the steps and components of the teaching plan (quarterly, annual and daily)

2. Enumerates appropriate teaching strategies for teaching the biology course

3. Identify the appropriate types of manual and electronic teaching aids to teach topics selected from the biology course for the secondary stage

4. Compare different teaching methods in terms of their suitability for different stages of education

5. Distinguish the types and methods of evaluation and measurement used when implementing selected lessons in the biology course

Teaching and learning methods

1. Lectures and presentations by PowerPoint and documentaries supporting the lecture

2. Practice

3. Laboratory Activities

Methods of assessments

Student Assessment Methods in this courseBicycles are awarded throughout the semester so that the grades are divided by the number of presentations submitted by the student
