    Devenir enseignante et enseignant FLS
    (2022-05-01) Scheffel-Dunand, Dominique
    Cet atelier interactif a pour objectif d’initier les élèves de la 9e à la 12e année à l’apprentissage de l’enseignement de la langue française. Les élèves découvriront une variété de compétences pédagogiques durant cet atelier. Ils travailleront ensuite en groupes pour créer une affiche contenant des informations provenant de divers sujets d’enseignement. Les groupes devront présenter leur affiche à la classe sous forme d’une mini leçon en utilisant les habiletés pédagogiques abordées durant l'activité et ainsi exposer les élèves au monde de l'enseignement du français afin de les motiver à poursuivre une potentielle carrière en enseignement.

    Debunking Psychology
    (Continuing Education, York University, Glendon Campus, 2022-05-01) Rivest, Josée
    The field of psychology plays an important role in multiple social domains. In addition to working in mental health, psychology researchers and practitioners contribute to such diverse fields as education, organisational development and marketing, among others. However, despite its broad reach, there remain many misconceptions about psychology and a general lack of knowledge regarding the role psychology plays beyond the field of mental health. This workshop addresses some of these misconceptions and seeks to demystify what it means to study and work in the field of psychology. Participants will look at concrete examples of how psychology research is conducted and explore examples of real-world applications beyond the field of mental health.

    La psychologie démystifiée
    (Continuing Education, York University, Glendon Campus, 2022-05-01) rivest, josée
    La psychologie joue un rôle important dans de nombreux domaines sociaux. Évidemment, celles et ceux qui exercent et étudient la psychologie œuvrent dans le domaine de la santé mentale, mais elles et ils interviennent aussi dans des secteurs aussi divers que l’éducation, le développement organisationnel et le marketing, pour ne nommer que ceux-ci. Or, en dépit de sa vaste portée, la psychologie fait toujours l’objet d’idées fausses et d’un manque général de connaissances sur le rôle qu’elle joue ailleurs qu’en santé mentale. Le présent atelier aborde certaines de ces idées fausses et vise à démystifier ce que ce signifie d’étudier et de travailler dans le domaine de la psychologie. Les participantes et participants examineront des exemples concrets de la manière dont la recherche en psychologie est menée et se familiariseront avec des contributions tangibles de la psychologie ailleurs que dans le domaine de la santé mentale.

    K-12 Science At Home activities for learning about Urban Watershed Management and Biodiversity episode 7 – the indoor biome
    (2022-07-01) LeBlanc, Jenna; Vukovic, Sasha
    Seven in a series of seven short videos delivered via the Faculty of Science YouTube Channel (streaming) and Yorkspace Open Access Institutional Repository (downloadable mp4 file). Each video has an accompanying pamphlet with links to activities. Together, they make the content of undergraduate Online Ecology Field Course Modules accessible for students from Kindergarten to Grade 12 who are interested in doing Citizen Science. Activities use inexpensive equipment which all together cost under $20. Equipment includes every day household items, and an origami microscope and a macro-camera lens that fits all mobile phones. With this, Student Citizen Scientists can undertake Ecology Research and Field Work in their home or garden, on their balcony or in the parking lot, while following safe COVID-19 Social Distancing guidelines. Seven laboratory modules introduce a range of safe, Kitchen Sink Ecology activities. Episode 7 introduces the indoor biome.

    Escape Room: Crime and Trigonometry
    (2022) Challal, Samia; Robin, Tylar
    This workshop has been created for students who are in a mathematics course in which they are learning about trigonometry. It is a fun way to challenge participants and have them apply the knowledge they’ve gained through their mathematics class in the context of a game. The workshop focuses primarily on the trigonometry unit. Throughout the workshop, participants will review the process of solving for angles or side lengths of a variety of triangles using diverse techniques. These techniques include: - Special triangles - Trigonometric ratios - SOHCAHTOA - Sine and Cosine laws The workshop takes the form of an escape room, which means that participants will have to solve a sequence of problems to move from room to room before being able to “escape”. They will work in groups, to successfully complete the escape room.

    Jeu d’évasion : Un cambriolage... trigonométrique
    (Continuing Education, York University, Glendon Campus, 2022-05) Challal, Samia; Robin, Tylar
    Cet atelier s’adresse aux élèves qui étudient les mathématiques. Il se veut un moyen divertissant de mettre à l’épreuve les connaissances acquises dans le cadre de leurs cours de mathématiques, en particulier celles liées à la trigonométrie. Elles et ils réviseront les techniques appropriées pour résoudre des problèmes faisant intervenir des triangles ayant divers angles et différentes longueurs de côté. Elles et ils se familiariseront davantage avec : • les triangles particuliers, • le moyen mnémotechnique SOH-CAH-TOA, • les rapports trigonométriques, • les lois des sinus et du cosinus. L’atelier s’inspire du principe du jeu d’évasion : les participantes et les participants doivent résoudre une série de problèmes pour passer d’une salle à l’autre et « s’évader ». Elles et ils travailleront en groupe afin de pouvoir terminer le jeu.

    Creating Virtual Simulations for Nursing
    (2022-02-03) Orazietti, Brenda
    Nursing education has always had components of experiential learning, with student practicing out in the field, such as in hospitals. But as we realized with the pandemic, that many more online resources were needed at an affordable price to facilitate learning. So that I why I created this project, to create more online methods for students to learn how to nurse various patients. Our placements for students experiential learning were cancelled due to the pandemic, so we had to rely on expensive programs that were already created, such as VSIM by Laerdal.
