Learning unit contents
Dropout may designate the fact of not being interested any more in the school work, the fact of giving up school, or to leave the education system with a low level of qualification. Dropout is the outcome of a long cumulative process of disengagement which results from an interaction between school and socio-family factors. This process can take root in the very first contacts with the school.
During the lessons, factors occurring in the process of early school leaving at various stages of the schooling will be identified and put in connection with educational practices which can be exploited with the aim of reducing the early school leaving.
This year's practical work will consist of observing a teacher's classroom practices or a tainer training's practices using an observation grid, followed by an analysis of these observations based on the concepts studied in the course.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Students will work the two following skill:
Describe, analyze, decode educational / training situations in context by referring to the conceptual frameworks from the field of science education.
- Describe the elements of these situations, describe their context and explain their interactions at various levels of the system
- Distinguish levels of analysis (individual, groupal, institutional ...).
- Distinguish descriptive, interpretive and prescriptive discourses.
- Question these situations with reference to frameworks.
- Incorporate in its analyzes various contexts with formative and educational issues as well as the age range affected by these issues.

The practical work will provide an introduction to observing teaching or training situations using a relevant observation grid. They will also provide an opportunity to learn how to analyse these observations and integrate the theoretical concepts covered in the course. Formative feedback is planned.
