Explore energy stores, gravitational & kinetic energy, power & efficiency, energy resources & usage.
Summary
The blended learning course, delivered by The Ogden Trust, supports non-specialist teachers of physics to develop their subject knowledge and pedagogical approaches for teaching Energy at Key Stages 3 and 4.
Learning takes place over an 8-week period and includes the following:
- Full day face-to-face session.
- Two online webinars.
- Supported online study, including activities and quizzes.
- Face-to-face half day.
Topics covered are: the energy stores and pathways, gravitational and kinetic energy, power and efficiency, energy resources, fuels and energy usage. Face to face days include required practicals.
Eligibility: This course is only available for qualified teachers in England who do NOT have a physics ITT qualification. This course is for biology, chemistry, science or any other teachers teaching physics at KS3 and/or KS4 outside of their specialist field.Trainee teachers and technicians are NOT eligible to access this course.
Outcomes
The SKPT blended learning CPD will:
- develop teaching skills and confidence.
- consider mathematical problem solving, conceptual challenges, practical work and pedagogical reflections.
- delivered in a supportive learning network.
On completion of the course teachers can complete a Subject Knowledge Award accredited by the Institute of Physics.
