Description of the Experience
I succeeded at studying physics making models, because I did it on time and I didn’t have problems with finding information about those models that I needed to make. I also succeeded because it was interesting to think and understand the definition of models I made. Of course with some models I did have some problems because I didn’t know if I made them right ... that got me think a while about if I was correct.
In spite of all making models is easy way to learn physics because you think on your own models and try to understand. It is like self teaching.
Our physics teacher Uldis Heidingers gave us a list of concepts. From that list we needed to take 10 concepts. We needed to write each concept a definition and find in the internet a photo where it is shown in life or make your own model by drawing. After we found model or make it ourselves we needed to explain what is shown in that photo and how it is connected with definition and concept.
To practise more we needed to correct some models too. It was kind of funny because I liked to act like a teacher. Of course there where one model that I didn’t know if it was correct or incorrect!

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
