Description of the Experience
As I am terrified of physiks and don't understand it, I felt a terrible idea that students have to create their own models in physics, but actually it turned out to be purely an effective way of learning. During lessons there head left some 5% percent of your narrated substance in my head, but when I have a render models is that you are reading a particular definition as long as you more or less understand how it works and you start to think about which it might be associated. And the model is finally ready and you can confirm its correctness, the student understands that the terms of physics and teaching material actually is not that difficult. The key is to understand even a small part of a given type definitions and more already have associations that help to understand the theory. I think that this is quite an effective way of learning, because it is also a memorable + suggests that students themselves, rather than carve the text of the book in head. Perhaps, these models could even replace laboratory work, because they can be better prepared before control tests.

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.
