The student in the role of teacher

Based on opinions expressed by renowned authors in the field of education such as Rousseau, Piaget, Vygotsky, and Wallon, and after consulting the students themselves through a Focus Group session, we placed the student in the role of teacher. In this work, the observation phase of the cooperating teacher's classes was very important. It was a valuable learning experience, as I was involved from the outset in planning the classes, developing the necessary teaching resources, and preparing the supporting materials. This was very useful because it helped me to understand the dynamics of the class and to experiment with different teaching strategies, which in turn helped me to think about my intervention project. The invaluable contribution of the students was very important in its development.
