PEDAGOGICAL CONTENTS

1.      Teaching Method

Science teachers have their own methods to teach their student. After I observed my mentor teacher Nan when he was teaching, there are three steps. First, teacher will present about the topic they want to teach. It is ad the introduce the topic and they will show the topic on the projector and power point to make student easy to understands what will they learn. Second, they will gave some example to make it clear. Then teacher will ask the student express their opinions. And teacher will make student read some science terms in English because they always now science in Thai but did not know in English. So, its importans to student to know some science term in English. Because they also have science in English and they  learn it in extra class in weekend.

2.      Learning materials and innovation

The teacher use material based on basic core curriculum and science book. For innovation, teacher using expository method or cooperative learning.

3.      Sources of learning and technology

Teacher in Teeratada Phitsanulok School use two book such as teacher book and student book. The student for Mathayom also have English version to their science book. Teacher can add other materials from internet. For the technology, the teacher using power point when they teach to make student easy to understand and make the lesson more interesting. And also they can use worksheet on handouts.

4.      Auhentic Assesment
