Teaching placements
The students are in charge of internships (20 hours) during which they teach in secondary school classes under the supervision of experienced teachers. In addition to chemistry, they may also teach a limited number (maximum: 8 periods) of physics or biology lessons.
Reflexive practical work
Reflexive practices are based on the analysis, by the students and the members of the chemistry didactics group, of the internship report, in order to define the appropriate feedback.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
Participation in a few scholar activities taking place outside the traditional classroom environment: help for students with school problems, accompanying pupils to scientific events, tutoring schuelerlabors, meeting the parents, ...
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Teaching placements
At the end of their internships, the future teachers are expected to master the major competences that define a professional teacher so that they can participate efficiently in a secondary school teaching team.
Reflexive practical work
Reflexive practices are one of the many tools which should help the future teachers to: - develop among their students a citizenship-oriented behaviour; - contribute to the intellectual development of each student; - guide the learning processes; - promote the development of transferable skills; - assess the results of her/his teaching practice; - work in a team-oriented way; - use efficiently modern communication techniques.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
Make future teachers sensitive to the very diverse facets of their job.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Teaching placements
- Course AESS1216-1 - A good knowledge of chemistry at the bachelor level - A good knowledge of the general didactics course
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Extra-scholar teaching activities
Each student will plan with the lecturers in charge of the chemistry didactics (B. Nihant or B. Leyh) the activities she or he wants to perform and the duration of each of them.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Face-to-face course
Teaching placements
Face-to-face course
Additional information:
The internships will take place in January 2024 and during the second semester 2023-2024.
The students receive detailed written information about the organisational aspects.
8 (minimum) to 12 (maximum) hours must be taught in technical qualification classes or in professional classes.
Reflexive practical work
Face-to-face course
Additional information:
Reflexive practices are organized when the members of the chemistry didactics group come to assess a lesson in a school, and at the end of each internship. The critical analysis included in the report is an important part of the reflexive practices.
Extra-scholar teaching activities
Face-to-face course
Recommended or required readings
Teaching placements
Official curricula and chemistry books for the secondary school, and bachelor chemistry textbooks (for revising chemistry concepts)
Assessment methods and criteria

Teaching placements
Written work / report
Continuous assessment
Additional information:
Assessment by the secondary school supervisor and by the members of the chemistry didactics laboratory.
A report must be written by the student at the end of the internships. Students will be provided with detailed information in due time. This report will be assessed.
The report must include a critical analysis of the work performed.
A global grade lower than 10/20 for this course leads to the non-success of the annual programme or of the study cycle.
