Special emphasis is given to the experimental component, since this was detected as a major requirement of teachers, who feel very motivated but insufficiently prepared to provide formative and interesting laboratory and project work for their students. The aim of the above three courses is to complement the formation in these fundamental areas of physics. Special emphasis is given to experimental work, to historical aspects, and to the connection of physics to the modern world. The main aim of this course is to complement formation on the use of computer supported information, and on the use of multimedia as a tool for interactive learning. A project work on the development of methods and didatic instruments relevant for physics teaching in schools.
Students work individually, oriented by a tutor, on a chosen theme.
Besides a written work, students are expected to make oral and poster presentations. This is a weekly forum for debate between physicists and specialists in education science on the teaching of physics in basic and secondary level schools. Lecturing is by several speakers on subjects of their speciality.
