  3. educational context Context.
  4. A guide to household fire safety and prevention.
  5. Household fires are dangerous, destructive all too common.
  6. This is very important for students to know.
  7. The stage I am focusing on is stage free and the chosen class is five c.
  8. I have selected free outcomes from the KT six science and technology syllabus
  9. as well as free descriptors. I will go
  10. swiftly over the descriptors
  11. first descriptor investigate how energy can be
  12. transferred and transformed in electrical circuits,
  13. and the source is needed to perform these.
  14. So a lightbulb electrical wire, buzzer, etcetera.
  15. Second scripture design test and evaluate a product or system that
  16. involves utilising electrical energy to help with an identified cause.
  17. So, for example, in the artefact I have constructed,
  18. I have an automated chimney slash fireplace.
  19. I have a smoke alarm,
  20. etcetera. The third and final descriptor discuss how light, sound,
  21. heat and electrical energy transformed to other types of energy.
  22. So, for example, my smoke alarm in the household.
  23. But the fact that I have created transfers electrical energy into
  24. sound energy to allow any people that are in the house
  25. of a potential fire
  26. now the importance of home fire safety and prevention.
  27. We need to identify the fire hazards and what fire precautions we must take.
  28. The majority of fire related injuries and deaths
  29. in developed countries occur in the home.
  30. That's why it is important for students to know
  31. these measures
  32. in the household as well as the other fact that I have constructed,
  33. you will see a fireplace.
  34. A potential fire can break out of that.
  35. A smoke alarm which can be used as a
  36. fire precaution to allow mu against a potential fire.
  37. A fire extinguisher, fire blanket, firehose, etcetera.
  38. The cost curriculum priority is sustainability.
  39. The theme of sustainability is widespread throughout
  40. the home via safety and prevention artefact,
  41. the construction of the artefact and the learning experience that
  42. follows teaches students the theoretical concept of the reduce,
  43. reuse and recycle principle.
  44. This is pivotal as he teaches students about
  45. renewable resources and how to protect our environments
  46. about Cayless.
  47. So
  48. for our science lesson,
  49. students will study,
  50. will study electrical circuits and understand the
  51. ways electrical energy is transferred and transformed.
  52. As seen in the artefact I have created for a PHP listen,
  53. students can investigate safe and unsafe
  54. features of specific environments and explore
  55. actions to enhance their own and others safety and well being.
  56. For a geography lesson,
  57. students can develop a fire safety plan and demonstrate how they
  58. will take action in their home in response to a potential fire
  59. living on,
  60. we will look at the construction process. So here are some progress photos.
  61. As you can see, I used a shoebox and I printed out
  62. a picture of a fire blanket picture of a household background printed out
  63. fire extinguisher as well.
  64. Also, you can see the smoke alarm, which is the buzzer that I've used.
  65. You can see the scraps of timber I've taken from outside that I've recycled.
  66. You used to create the fireplace
  67. and you can see the screw and the war holder I've used to attach the firehose.
  68. See, a lot of these materials have been recycled,
  69. which is which served to be fantastic, because
  70. I didn't have to buy much items. As you can see in the budget list,
  71. Total spent $33 and most of my items were recycled.
  72. Okay,
  73. moving on to classroom implications. Okay,
  74. We'll start off by using the five,
  75. a model which I believe is very crucial and
  76. by all pre service pre service teachers must use the
  77. model is an effective teaching method
  78. used to produce scientific literate students.
  79. As mentioned in Chipman Booker and Cop 2013.
  80. Get students to engage, explore, explain,
  81. elaborate and evaluate within class lessons.
  82. As Chapman, Booker and Club 2013 suggest,
  83. this framework nurtures an atmosphere that
  84. encourages a positive culture about inquiry.
  85. So this is also good because
  86. leads to inquiry based learning,
  87. which is another theoretical framework that pre service teachers should follow
  88. the five. The model is also very good when it comes to having lessons that are hands on
  89. now.
  90. Some other classroom implications to consider is safety.
  91. Careful consideration Planning and teaching must be undertaken
  92. to advise students about safety when handling materials,
  93. and the voices such as the hot glue gun, electricity
  94. entering students follow safety. Adequate
  95. is vital. Safety measures must be explained and students
  96. last day.
  97. These safety measures, before performing any hands on activities
  98. appropriate personal protective equipment, must be supplied if needed,
  99. and
  100. an example I presented for my artefact is obviously the home fire safety
  101. topic.
  102. I uncovered the safety procedures
  103. needed to counter
  104. a potential fire if there was one to occur in the household.
  105. Yeah,
  106. mm.
  107. Some of the negatives in constructing the artefact
  108. the hobby motor spent too fast.
  109. I had trouble connecting the ends of the electrical wires together,
  110. so there was a lot of loose connexions.
  111. Positive was that most of the materials were recycled from home,
  112. resulting in not having to spend too much money,
  113. which leads to obviously
  114. correlated to
  115. the reduce, reuse and recycle principle.
  116. Students learn to appreciate what they
  117. have when constructing these within classes.
  118. Students learn to recycle material for good causes. It gets students to
  119. go home and look for materials they can possibly use.
  120. It's good because they don't have to make
  121. unnecessary approach purchases and they don't have to waste
  122. any materials.
  123. This
  124. will be brought up,
  125. which is inquiry based learning. This should be promoted.
  126. This is what you want in a classroom and
  127. through having hands on activities for having student engaging,
  128. engaging in group work,
  129. using the five model,
  130. teaching that visible later to open in the
  131. discussions critical and creative thinking from students,
  132. it will enhance their learning experiences.
  133. It also leads to promoting student participation and
  134. teamwork and fostering curiosity within the students.
  135. No
  136. student engagement.
  137. This is very significant.
  138. This can be achieved in groups of four, which is what I would do.
  139. And this can create a prolific class environment or discussion
  140. with participation.
  141. Students level and sophistication contributes
  142. to their understanding of science.
  143. This can also lead to scaffolding where the most knowledgeable,
  144. knowledgeable students assist, the less knowledgeable.
  145. These teaching approaches are pivotal in
  146. creating the ideal classroom environment.
  147. Students are driven towards a zone of proximal development,
  148. understanding
  149. the concept hand,
  150. so looking at electricity and circuits and
  151. diving deep down into these concepts into these definitions. So it's important
  152. for the students to understand what a battery is.
  153. So from the get go, you need to as a pre service teacher,
  154. define these concepts on the white board before beginning any hands on activities.
  155. What we call a battery
  156. and technically,
  157. well, batteries is actually
  158. a so as well a battery.
  159. However, a battery normally consists of several cells,
  160. first giving it a bigger size and making a much Baki.
  161. While I still is usually light and compact as he has a single, you know
  162. there is a picture here as well on the left hand side, which helps illustrate
  163. giving you a depiction of what
  164. of how they can differ
  165. now moving on to circuits. It's important
  166. as well to understand circuit as the topic focuses on
  167. circuits as seen for the outcomes mentioned previously. So
  168. before we can dive, dive deep down into circuits,
  169. we need to understand electricity,
  170. which is the flow of electrical power or charges.
  171. It can come in.
  172. Many forms, sound like movement or examples,
  173. and can be all seen within the artefact I have constructed.
  174. A series circuit is an electrical circuit.
  175. Were electrons flow through a single path.
  176. The voltage is shared with all components of the circuit.
  177. If one component fails,
  178. then all components fail and the flow of electricity is disrupted.
  179. On the other hand,
  180. a parallel circuit is an electrical circuit where
  181. all components are connected via multiple pathways.
  182. The same voltage is applied to all components.
  183. If one component breaks, the other components still function. So, for example,
  184. let's say you have an L. A. D. And a motor in the parallel, circa.
  185. If the motor breaks, the led will still function if the and vice versa
  186. now my second programme
  187. in the middle. We have my creative artefact.
  188. On the right hand side, you can see a simple circuit on the top.
  189. You can see a serious circuit.
  190. And on the left hand sand left hand side, you can see a parallel circuit.
  191. I've got three different circuits. Electrical circuits
  192. in my artefact.
  193. The simple circuit involves a motor, a switch and a battery.
  194. The series, circa involves a cell, a switch and two ladies,
  195. which makes a series circuit.
  196. The parallel circuit involves a still
  197. free switches,
  198. the buzzer
  199. and and a lady. If the buzzer was to turn off, the lady was still function.
  200. If the lady was to turn off, the buzzer will still function,
  201. which has been proven in my video presented at the start of the
  202. presentation.
  203. Yeah,
  204. my references.
  205. But I've used throughout this presentation Thank you for listening
