My learning journey to becoming a full-time teacher has continued this semester. The courses I found quite interesting, and concepts that were introduced in PSI last fall suddenly seemed to be much clearer and make more sense this time around, especially in regards to assessment and evaluation. One of the more interesting aspects of the university coursework portion of PSII term was learning about indigenous ways of learning in my C & I class for science majors, and how that contrasts and compares with current accepted scientific thinking.
My practicum placement this term was at the east campus of Catholic Central High School in Lethbridge, AB. I have had the privilege of teaching Science 14, covering the topics of energy and matter in the biosphere, and Science 24, teaching the physics of collisions and the technology of safety. In my last week of PSII, I am teaching about electromagnetic radiation and astronomy, and then I have a few more courses to do before PSIII begins in the fall.
