Challenges Concept - Context Didactic challenges in Science Education Classical approach: Content based education through different science concepts Problem: pupils don’t see the connection between the concepts (Irrelevant content) Possible solution: introduce an overall connecting context to link the different science concepts (Context based education)
Challenges Context based education • Direct link with the perception of the pupils and therefore relevant to them. • Development of knowledge originates from the context (Constructivistic approach) • Through the direct link with the perception a bridge with relevant issues in society is made • (Social constructivistic method)
Challenges Goals of today's workshop • 1. Introduction to the module developed by us as an example of a context based didactical approach. • ! FOCUS ON APPROACH, NOT THE SCIENCE CONTENT! • 2. Evaluate the context based method developed by us and how it can be used and improved.
The Context: lessons ! FOCUS ON APPROACH, NOT THE SCIENCE CONTENT!
