E. Rutgers program and clinical practice
The clinical practice is also organized on the principles of
cognitive apprenticeship. Students observe and reflect on the
lessons conducted by the program coordinator in the courses

Weeks 1–7: Instructor models
good teaching practices
and preservice teachers
reflect.
Part 1: Preservice teachers act as students
and participate in physics lessons that
are conducted in an interactive, inquiry-
oriented manner; they work in groups on
questions and problems and present
their solutions on white boards.
Part 2: Preservice teachers act as teachers
reflecting on the learning that happened in
class and the actions of the instructor,
analyzing them from the PCK point of view.
Part 3: Preservice teachers act both as
students and teachers by responding to the
written formative assessment questions
based on the content of the
material and simultaneously on the responses
given by high school students learning the same
material. Even though students act as teachers
reflecting on their learning and on the content of
materials or quizzes, they do not lead the lessons.
Part 1: Students read original texts written by
physicists
共Galileo, Newton, Oersted, Joule,
etc.
兲, physics education research papers,
textbooks, and other sources
共which vary
depending on the specific course
兲 and use
them to write a reflection on the process of
construction of knowledge. The emphasis
is on conceptual understanding, scientific
reasoning, and high school student learning
of specific topics. Students send their reports
to the instructor who provides feedback after
which students revise their work.
