CISE 4270 Methods of Teaching Secondary and Middle School Science II


This course is the continuation of science methods I. It is a hybrid, undergraduate science methods course for K-12 certification that focuses on research, reflection, and successful practices in secondary science classrooms. Candidates study practices of successful teachers through case studies and residency experiences. Lessons planned in the science methods I course are adapted and taught in the field in science methods II. Candidates video and assess their teaching effectiveness through feedback from a variety of sources including peers, learners in the schools, cooperating teachers, and methods professors. Candidates work collaboratively to identify and solve problems associated with teaching science in the schools, and to collect and share resources for teaching and safe management of the learning environment. Candidates are expected to complete the requirements for EdTPA, create a classroom-school reform project, analyze science classroom research articles and personal dispositions, maintain membership in a professional organization, and reflect on future goals in science.
