La tech-mot, ça me parle !

PRESENTATION Competency The sequence of events Evaluation Difficulties Educational goals and competencies Essential knowledge Scope statement Concepts Materials
3
COMPETENCY COMPETENCY 1 : Search answers/solutions for scientific or technological problems COMPETENCY 2 : Use his scientific and technological knowledge COMPETENCY 3 : Communicate by the language used in science and technology
4
SEQUENCE Divide the class into two groups (A and B). Every group will form teams of 3 or 4 students (A1, A2, B1, B2, etc.).. –The A group will perform a basic electrical challenge. –The B group will perform a simple assembly: building of a car.
5
SEQUENCE They have to produce an instruction guide in only written format (no sketch). –Using the appropriate words chosen from a list
6
VOCABULARIES Examples of words LampElectric circuit Series circuitOpen circuit SourceParallel Circuit SwitchAlligator clip
7
SEQUENCE Later, they exchange their instruction guide with a team of the other group.
8
SEQUENCE The team accepting an instruction guide must be capable of accomplishing the related assembly If the team needs help during the assembly task, it can use exclusively written communication not oral!
9
SEQUENCE Teams accomplish assembly and produce a guide using schematic and containing only technological vocabulary, exclusively using written communication. – Attention, in the instruction guide made of schematic no text (sentences) is allowed.
10
EXAMPLE
12
EVALUATION After the evaluation, the teams work together to combine the written and the schematic guides. –It allows to accomplish a simple and understandable guide – Develop competency 3: compare their data /processes with others (PFEQ p.281).
13
EVALUATION This learning activity must be completed in the beginning of the school year. – Students are aware of the importance of good communication
14
EVALUATION Team (A) will have the opportunity to share information with team (B) to create a simple/clear guide final. – This allows to gain knowledge through interaction with others, to structure his comments, to make explanations, or formulate and transmit the results (PFEQ p.280).
15
DIFFICULTIES Difficulties appear while preparing the guide text instructions. –They often skip details that seem easy or obvious to them. –Accuracy is an important factor, often neglected. –In addition, the use of appropriate terms is not obvious
16
EDUCATIONAL GOALS Allow students to develop a critical thinking and a good working method. This scenario can lead them to react constructively to criticism and comments of others Allows to develop the knowledge of a terminology and a specialized symbolism.
17
COMPETENCY Competency 3 : Communicate with the aid of languages used in sciences and technology. (PFEQ p.281) –Produce a written communication tool or schematized … the choice of terms and the use of technological symbols is important.
18
ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE Essential knowledges are related to the technological world: –Students learn to integrate technology into their daily activities. –General Concepts are engineering and technological systems.
19
SCOPE STATEMENT The Learning activity consists of a scope of statement (PFEQ p.288) –They must achieve a construction sheme (PFEQ p.288) and provide the steps to follow in order to finish the task. In addition, they should understand the technical terms related to specific materials (QEP p.288) and components.
20
CONCEPTS General concepts related to engineering : - Scope of statement - Construction scheme - material
21
CONCEPTS General concepts related to the technological systems: - basic mechanical functions (displacement of the car) - elements of a system (technological terms) - system and total function (electrical circuit)
22
EXAMPLE 1: A Home with a Electrical Power challenge Materials A set of LEGO blocks (Hint: Special Edition LEGO, Better building more fun, 4 years and over, number 6092) ; The whole contains blocks necessary to build a house, doors and windows (optional, since it can leave holes in the building to represent them). A power source Two alligator clamps A small bulb A switch ….
