TIMEPERIOD: Q1, Q2 LANGUAGE:Swedish EXAMINER Crister Björk Univ adj PREREQUISITES To have passed the courses: PÄN010 Local Environm.,Community as Teach.Resource, MA/NO PÄP001 Development and Learning COURSE AIM The students should work on and develop: -evolutionary understanding of systematic and morphcal biology, -comprehensiv view of conditions of nature, -knowledge about interactions within environments, -in-depth knowledge about and skills in the important general science areas of the compulsory school, -understanding of the interaction between theory and experiment, -understanding of the interaction between Natural Science, technique, community and environment, -understanding of conservation and transformation of matter, -knowledge of atomic theory as an explanatory model for chemical processes, -problem-directed approach, -laboratory working procedure and learning by discovery, -a memo introducing the degree project. The students should have knowledge about: -evolutionary aspects of systematic and morphology of organisms, -population biology, ethology included, -basic ecological relations, -basic elements and laws of the classical physics, -structure, propities and transformation of matter, phases and phase transitions, -energy currencies at chemical reactions, -the historical perspective, -how to start with problem-solving in application of mathematic as well as in concept formation. The students should be able to: -critical examine and interpret result reports, -plan and lead excursions, -interpret and use the periodic table, -carry out experiments and apply result, observations, interpretations and conclusions to the everyday use and vice versa, -account for concept development in mathematics within the framwork of the compulsory comprehensive school, -exemplify and account for the difference between knowledge of concepts and knowledge of procedures, -account for how you start from problem-situations in application of mathematic as well in concept formation, -evaluate the capability of development in unconventional methods of solution when solving mathematical problems as well as routin tasks. CONTENTS ITEM 1, Natural Science Didactics of science subjects *Biology Kingdoms of life, systematics and morphology in an evolutionary perspective. Ecology of fresh and brackish waters. Outdoor Education. *Physics About qualitatative and quantitative scientific surveys. Handling measuring data and measuring errors. Kinematics, statics, forces and dynamics. Velocity and acceleration at different typs of motions. Momentum and angular momentum. Newton´s laws. Elasticity. Engineering mechanics. *Chemistry Struct ure, properties and transformation of matter Periodic system. Chemical liaisons. Chemical reaktions and factors influencing the reaction rate. Oxidation, reduction, combustion. Concentration of solutions. Acids and bases. Chemical balances. Electrical chemistry. Thermochemistry. ITEM 2, Mathematics Mathematical didactics. Repetition of trigonometry. Geometry. History of mathematics. In-depth arithmetics. Basic EDA and its application within the compulsory comprehensive school. Problem-solving. TEACHING Lectures, lessons, laboratory works and excursions. A individual technical assignment should be carried out. Different measuring methods and measuring techniques, based on theories, are used in experiments and measurings. EXAMINATION Oral/written examination. COURSE GRADE SCALE: Fail, Pass.
