Offer 3 with catalog number 4022723ENW for working students in the 2nd semester at a (E) Master - advanced level.
Pedagogy
This track focuses on introductory pedagogical theoretical frameworks that can be used to create a positive and inclusive classroom and school climate. Two professional roles are emphasized: teacher as educator and teacher as organizer. In addition to the introductory frameworks on positive and inclusive classroom climate a series of workshops will be held on specific topics such as: multilingual education, gender sensitive education, dealing with violent extremism and radicalisation, culturally responsive education, parental involvement, bullying, drug prevention, sustainable development goals … In online discussion groups students discuss the topics from the learning pathway pedagogy to deepen their understanding of the theoretical frameworks by using the frameworks to analyse and solve cases.
Domain specific applications
This track focuses on subject specific pedagogy in the school (such as school vision and teaching methods, vertical and horizontal coherence, curriculum theory, departmental collaboration, subject oriented learning environment) and on
aspects such as differentiation, assessment, motivation and classroom management. Furthermore, attention is paid to teaching methodology as a scientific discipline: international and historic perspective, pedagogical concepts (e.g. care and language policy) within the domain.
Reflective and Inquiry-Based Practice
During a video-stimulated reflection session in a small group, students analyze the full complexity of classroom practice. The student's own actions and functioning in the classroom group are the focus of this reflection. The students make use of pre-filmed practical experiences of their own class practice. For students who do not take a course with internship practice at the same time, the reflection assignments can be different. The session is structured according to the framework of GRROW coaching. Students integrate in their reflection offered frames of reference that contribute to the design of a positive and inclusive living environment (pathway pedagogy and subject didactics) and independently consult scientific sources to strengthen the reflection. During the session, students actively contribute to the reflection of their fellow students by applying coaching skills (e.g. involved confrontation, challenging, inspiring, allowing and giving space, relaxing...).
In online discussion groups students discuss the topics from the learning pathway pedagogy. Students take on a research disposition and apply coaching skills to support the professional learning of their fellow students.
For students of campuses Anderlecht, Diest and Leuven 24 contact hours will be organised. 156h are completed as self-study.
In order to prepare for practice students are expected to attend the lectures and workshops (professional attitude).
