Description

This symposium is proposed by the GIREP Thematic Group “Physics Preparation of Teachers in Grades K-6” and consists of a discussion on physics education in kindergarten from two interlaced perspectives: children teaching/learning and teacher training in physics. The three contributions suggest ideas to start a discussion on these challenging and multifaceted topics in view of the identification of innovative ways of teaching and learning physics in kindergarten.
