Module Overview

Originated by Prof. Felicia Rivera Megret

Observation is the active acquisition of information from a primary source. In living beings, observation employs the senses. In science, observation can also involve the recording of data via the use of instruments. The term may also refer to any data collected during the scientific activity. In this module, we observe our own senses and those of others. We also explore how ‘observation’ in science and how this is helpful in getting the most from everyday life.

We will explore

  • What are observation skills in humans?
  • Exploring our senses
  • How does the brain process observations?
  • Exploring observation in science
  • Sharing observations individually and in groups

Our programmes include a range of learning materials to support both teachers and students in the classroom. Content wise, each module is different but some components are common to all to provide assessment tools for teachers and familiar references for students.

This module includes

  • Lesson plan
  • PowerPoint presentation
  • Observation of thoughts worksheet
  • Reflection worksheet
  • Key vocabulary
  • Teacher assessment

We believe that some topics are approached more powerfully by bringing in animation. That is why some of the topics have videos to illustrate the learning points
