Aurel Vlaicu using WOW-HI Educational On-line Platform (ID: 41, Street name: Aurel Vlaicu, Cluj-Napoca, Romania)
CURRICULUM COMPATIBILITY
The content is part of Physics curriculum, 8th grade, special education, students with moderate and mild intellectual disabilities approved by the Ministry of Education for 2022-23
COGNITIVE AREAS INVOLVED
Mechanical phenomena
STUDENT KNOWLEDGE AND PERCEPTIONS
Students have previous knowledge related to calculating the distance traveled by a object and the duration of the object’s movement.
CLASSROOM ORGANIZATION AND REQUIRED INFRASTRUCTURE
Students will work individually, face-to-face and in groups. They will use PC, laptops, tablets –connected to the internet, boards, worksheets
SOFTWARE
Internet, browser, word etc
EXPECTED LEARNING RESULTS
After completing the activities proposed in this teaching scenario, students are expected to have achieved the following objectives:
• To identfy the physical qantities involved in the speed definition formula
• To compare the speed of some bodies
• To order the the speeds according to their size
• To solve problem-situation through physics-specific methods
• To use various digital tools and applications in conducting the lesson
DURATION
45΄
DESCRIPTION
The pedagogical methods used are: conversation, explanation, problematization, modeling, exercise for the students to construct their own knowledge upon the foundation of previous learning.
The teacher shows the students boards with means of transport. They are tasked to identify those used by people in the past and present.
Is definite the speed and its formula. The students will indicate the physical quantities involved in the formula and the units if measure in which the speed can be expressed.
The students will associate means of transport with corresponding speed values and order these means of transport according their speeds.
The WOW-HI Educational On-line Platform will offer special material for pupils to learn. This will be used for: identifying Aurel Vlaicu Street, reading and hearing information about it.
In order to fix the knowledge of the students an printed worksheet will be distributed to the students.
The worksheet consists three activities:
ACTIVITY I: to identify means of transport and their speed
ACTICITY II: to learn about Aurel Vlaicu and about his inventions.
ACTIVITY III: to solve a problem using the model of Aurel Vlaicu street as concerete support.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Students with mild and moderate mental disabilities in the 7th grade are generally familiar with the use of ICT equipment and material resources used in the lesson.
The time provided in the lesson project can be adjusted during the course of the lesson, in accordance with the needs of each student, in order to complete the set tasks
ATTENTION TO DIVERSITY
The activity is adapted to the characteristics of students with SEN.
During the lesson, the students will be supported in using the applications, in solving the tasks, with additional explanations individually
