THE EFFICIENCY OF THE WORKSHEET AND PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE SCHOOL TRIP

Summary/Abstract: This study highlights the effects of using a worksheet for the analysis of practical applications carried out with students. As part of an interdisciplinary thematic field trip, a tourist route through a historic urban center was followed, and a natural history museum was visited. These activities were preceded by documentation and the creation of a magazine, aimed at identifying and correcting potential gaps, validating prior knowledge to which new information, concepts, or procedures will be related, as well as gathering, selecting, and structuring information for future use. The study involved 43 students aged 16-18, of both genders, from nine classes (10th-12th grades) at “Al. Papiu Ilarian” National College in Târgu-Mureș. To achieve the research objectives, the students participated in a project-based learning activity. They went through several stages, with the current study detailing the practical applications and the completion of the worksheet. The necessity of involving students in practical experiences is emphasized for the development of critical thinking and scientific skills.
