The purpose of this study was to clarify whether ‘independent learning’ based on One Page Portfolio Assessment (OPPA) Theory enhances teaching competence formation of master students lacking extensive prior practical teaching experience. ‘Independent learning’ here means that the learners become aware of the transformation of their own concepts and thinking with sparse outside guidance. Specifically, focusing on OPPA theory, which was developed with an emphasis on the transformation of concepts and thinking, OPP sheets were used in a lower secondary school science class. As a result of the analysis of the filled out OPP sheets, the following two points were clarified. First, the learners’ awareness of their own cognitive processes, and the teachers’ self-assessment based on it encourages the learners’ ‘independent learning’. Second, the teachers are thus able to improve their classes and the use of OPP sheets improves competence formation for young master students in the graduate school of teacher education. |
