Learning outcomes of the learning unit

In accordance with the HEC Liège skills reference framework:
in a skills-oriented approach promoting experiential learning through facing problem-situations enhancing the theory-practice conjunction taking into account student classes specifics taking into account legal and administrative constraints regarding the organization of education in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation
students will be able to:
- plan teaching classes depending on legal reference documents,
- build learning modules based on problem-situations and integrate student-oriented management taking the latter's complexity into account,
- take account of student classes specifics,
- enhance learning though qualitative teacher-student interactions,
- engage in a critical approach.
 
School internships as such make up a very important activity within the teaching training programme as they directly contribute to its ultimate objective: preparing the prospective teaching for teaching.
They aim at:
- finding out about the practical reality of secondary education and particularly in economic and management sciences teaching.
- mastering disciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge justifying pedagogical action.
- enabling the prospective teacher to experiment, observe, analyse the various components of teaching, to integrate and act, during internships, in a given school context (school, classes, internship mentor, school community).
- learn how to manage a group of students' learning and interpersonal relationships within this group, in a classroom and in a school context.
