SCHEME OF WORK
Introduction
This
lecture discusses the concepts of scheme of work and lesson plan as used in
education in general and in science and mathematics in particular. Also, the
lecture discusses the systematics steps for writing an effective scheme of work
and a lesson plan for teaching and learning of science and mathematics in
secondary schools.
Scheme
of Work
Literally,
scheme of work is “a plan for work”. It is an overview or a long term plan for
what the teacher aims to teach in a particular subject across a term or an
academic year.
A
teacher will need to write a scheme of work each subject they will teach in a
term. The scheme of works is written at the beginning of a term.
Benefits of scheme of work
i. Ensures no any crucial
content is left un taught
ii. Provided an
overview of all lessons to be covered in a term
iii. Make teachers not
to struggle in figuring the next lesson
iv. Suggests the T/L
strategies, activities, materials references and assessmen
A well
prepared scheme of work should, among other things;
i. Gives an overview
of the content to be covered in a term
ii. Provide for a
sequential listing of topic and its sub-topics and activities
iii. Show a
relationship between content, T/L strategies, T/L materials, assessment and
number of periods
Preparation
of scheme of work
The
following are some important considerations to be born in mind when preparing a
scheme of work;
i. Understanding the
syllabus; it is important that the teacher is conversant with the syllabus
thoroughly so that can interpret and implement correctly and successfully.
ii. Preceding and
succeeding the syllabus content; where necessary, the teacher should be
able to rearrange the content in logical teaching order considering the
proceeding and succeeding syllabus content
iii. Adapting scheme
of work of the same subject from previous year or from another
teacher; the teacher can revise and update accordingly the existing scheme of
work to suit current learners needs
iv. Time estimation;the teacher
should establish the actual amount of time available for T/L in a week, month,
term or a year by consulting school calendar or school time table. Moreover,
the scheme should indicate school breaks, public holidays, examinations, sports
week e.t.c.
