Student Assessment
Description
Students are assessed through individual or group assignments which they will hand in through email on the day and time that will be determined during the term. The topic of the assignment will be chosen by the students in agreement with the lecturer. Possible topics include: • Lesson plan for the teaching of a history unit with the use of ICTs: Choose a topic from the history textbook for the 5th and 6th grade of primary school and plan your teaching with the use of new technologies. Each topic must be taught in a period of 4-6 teaching hours. (GROUP ASSIGNMENT) • Lesson plan using as a primary learning tool an historical film of computer game. (INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT) • Creation of a teacher’s portfolio. (INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT) • Creation of a database of websites and internet material on history and history education. (GROUP ASSIGNMENT) • Creation of historical maps. (INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT) The lesson plan should be 8-10 pages long and cover the material and learning activities for 4-6 teaching hours. If a topic can be covered in less hours it can still be chosen as an assignment topic, as long as it is self-contained. Each participant in the group will be graded on the basis of the group assignment. Students who fail to pass the module in June can participate in the September exams period by creating an individual lesson plan for a teaching unit that will be completed during two teaching hours. The assignment must be 4-5 pages long.
