Teaching Physics, Didactic Case Report

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the outcomes of the project that is solved at the Faculty of Science in Olomouc, Czech Republic. One of the key activities of the project is to interconnect more closely the pre-graduate teacher training with the practice at schools and the cooperation with teachers of various secondary schools. Video hospitalizations of lessons are provided. Lessons realized by experienced teachers are compared with lessons realized by university students (pre-service teachers). The lessons are analyzed and reflected. Particular examples of the comparison of various physics lessons will be presented, crucial problems in these two types of lessons will be discussed.
