Course content
|
Lectures: 1.-2. International System of Units (SI), physical laws in natural phenomena, inquiry-oriented teaching and experiments in science 3. Elements as a cross-curricular topic. 4. Selected chapters of science and technology from the perspective of intersubject relations. 5. How does science work? Hypotheses, verification and falsification. Estimating the unimaginable. 6. Energy intersubjects. 7.-8. The position of geography within the geoscience disciplines. The role of water in the landscape - geographical, biological and physical contexts. 9. Numbers in society: prime numbers, self-correcting codes, coding, magic squares, Platonic solids, various tricks to help in calculations. Mathematical and physical foundations of music, string excitation, pitch, harmony, hearing. 10.-11. Relationship of math, physics, chemistry, what is science, history, work, force, equilibrium, definition of mole, thermodynamics, ideal gas theory, atomic models, basic ideas of quantum mechanics. 12. Sharing didactic aids with cross-curricular content as an activity for science teachers. Creation of educational cards and lapbooks. 13.-14. Cross-curricular relations of science education. Exercises: Students' own presentations on individual topics from the lectures, focusing on a complex interdisciplinary perspective and reflecting also the historical development of the issue.

Learning outcomes
|
The course introduces students to the interrelationships between natural sciences and outlines activity-based methods that can be used particularly in teaching multidisciplinary school subjects, where the basis is the activity of students. It presents possibilities for application in teaching at primary and secondary schools.

Assessment methods and criteria

Student's performance analysis, Systematické pozorování studenta
To successfully complete the course, students must meet the following conditions: * Active participation in classes (min. 80%) or online meetings. Involvement in activity-based learning and discussions, ongoing completion of partial tasks in the e-learning environment. * Creation of a multimodal artifact (interdisciplinary aid): Independent design and physical creation of a functional teaching aid (e.g., lapbook, interactive model, educational board game) that demonstrably connects at least two natural science disciplines. The aid must contain modern teaching elements (visualization, comics, concept maps, or integration of IT elements). * Methodological sheet structure: 1. Introduction: Interdisciplinary bridge Problem: What is abstract or difficult for students to imagine in this topic? Goal (Bridge): Why do we necessarily need a tool from [Subject B] to understand [Subject A]? 2. Technical sheet: How is it made? Describe the artifact here so that a fellow teacher can replicate it in their workshop or classroom. Materials and tools: List of items (paper, glue, scissors, paints). If you use 3D printing or a laser, list them as optional extensions or upgrades to the basic version. Role of AI (Required): Describe in detail how AI helped you (e.g., with creating texts for the lapbook, designing a comic strip layout or script). List the specific prompts you used. If AI made mistakes, describe how you "re-taught" it or corrected the text. 3. Didactic scenario: "Those who create learn." Focus on the student's activity, not the teacher's explanation. The principle of the semi-finished product: Describe exactly what the student will receive. It must be something that requires completion. Cognitive operations: What must the student do with the semi-finished product? (Must they analyse, compare, calculate?). Define what thought process you are eliciting in the student. 4. Verification and reflection Here, you will document how your concept worked out in a real situation -- pilot testing in practice. Carry out the activity directly in your classroom (if you teach). Write down on the sheet: How did reality compare to the plan? Attach 2-3 photos of your students' creations. If you do not teach, test your prototype on a group of classmates. Write down on the sheet: What did your classmates not understand? Which part of the production took too long? What did you change in the methodology based on their feedback?
