Learning and Teaching Theories in Education

This course attempts to show how robust theories of teaching can be, when they are constantly refined by recent developments of learning theories. While focusing on theories, the course conceives teaching as a practice. Hence, it will intertwine theoretical and practical discussions. Participants will read and present contemporary theories of teaching and the theories of learning that bolster them, focusing mainly on sciences and mathematics. The selection of theories will be made relevant to classroom problematics:  conceptual change and misconceptions  classroom norms and positioning  lesson design and engagement  politics (Big-D discourse) in education.
