Course objectives
The purpose of this course for students is to offer them space for reflection of experience from their own teaching practice realised within the course of Teaching practice 1 and to help them enhance their reflective and self-reflective skills in relation to their teaching practice. The way of the seminar management is inspired by the concept of the so-called reflecting teams, which is characteristic with cooperation of more professionals from different fields. As a result, the teaching is realized by a didactic professional together with either a pedagogue or psychologist. At the same time, selected mentors will be invited to the seminars. After completing the seminar the student will: 1) better understand essential aspects of pedagogical situations and questions, which have been a discussion subject in the seminar – regarding the seminar discussion, s/he can e.g. review his/her attitude to pupils’ motivation or to solving of discipline problems 2) be able to intentionally use reflection (and self-reflection) as a tool for professional learning – s/he can be able to e.g. name links between self-regulation of own feelings in the classroom and pupils’ learning outcomes.
Syllabus
  • • understanding the difference between descriptive and reflective writing • group work with a pedagogical (reflective) diary • group work with a professional portfolio • acquiring of reflection and self-reflection as a tool for professional learning with respect to generally pedagogical and psychological aspect of teacher’s work
