The teaching is organized as follows:

Learning outcomes

------------------------
MM: CHIMICA
------------------------
-the knowledge of the basis of chemistry and of the specific chimical language -the application of the scientific method to the field of chemistry to explain "why" and "how" the daily life appears -the development of a "molecular" approach of the world as a prerequisite to know the sorrounding space -the use of multidisciplinary topics (energy, light, matter, water, life, environment, food, poison, pollution) to build specific didactic courses within the chemical sciences -the set up of simple experimental works to be made in classroom, laboratory, outside
------------------------
MM: FONDAMENTI E DIDATTICA DELLA MATEMATICA 3
------------------------
Acquisizione di conoscenze e competenze matematiche e metodologiche per l'insegnamento alla scuola d'infanzia e primaria. Capacità di comprendere lo svolgimento di problemi matematici di semplice natura, applicati a contesti reali. Capacita' di formalizzare e risolvere problemi semplici attraverso il calcolo algebrico. Acquisizione dell'adeguato linguaggio formale che gli permetta di esprimere con dimestichezza i fondamentali concetti teorici del corso.

Program

------------------------
MM: CHIMICA
------------------------
Chemistry as a teaching subject in primary school Introduction to the periodic table Definition of atom, element, sub-atomic particles, isotopes and radioactivity, chemical compound and molecule Strong or weak bonds Matter states and its changes Mixtures and properties Concept of mole and concentration of a solution Energy forms Concept of acidity and basicity, definition of pH Chemical transformations Redox reactions and electrochemical cell The chemistry of carbon compounds, notes on the functional groups of organic molecules The food pyramid: carbohydrates, vitamins, lipids, proteins DNA and RNA: the molecules of life Educational workshops for primary school students on various topics
------------------------
MM: FONDAMENTI E DIDATTICA DELLA MATEMATICA 3
------------------------
• Problem solving e decision making • Insiemistica • I sistemi di equazioni lineari • Le funzioni • Fondamenti di statistica • Fondamenti di calcolo della probabilità

Examination Methods

------------------------
MM: CHIMICA
------------------------
Final verification by oral examination of the level of knowledge and in-depth analysis of the topics covered during the course. The exam foresees that the student shall prepare a deep oral presentation regarding one of the topic (free choice) of the course. The student must demonstrate that she/he has learned the basic concepts of inorganic and organic chemistry and that she/he has learned and understood methods and tools for teaching chemistry with particular attention to primary school children.

MM: FONDAMENTI E DIDATTICA DELLA MATEMATICA 3
------------------------
La prova d'esame è scritta e prevede esercizi e domande a risposta aperta. La valutazione complessiva sarà ottenuta dall'analisi dei seguenti indicatori: - conoscenza dei contenuti del corso - correttezza e completezza nella risoluzione e nell'esposizione - capacità di rielaborazione dei contenuti appresi
