  1. 208. Physics Teacher Professional Learning: innovative models for promoting culture and addressing societal issues
    Eilish McLoughlin (School of Physical Sciences & CASTeL, Dublin City University, Ireland)
    03/07/2023, 10:00
    Invited talk

    Two of the major challenges facing physics education internationally is the shortage of qualified physics teachers and an increased focus on the use of integrated STEM learning experiences at primary and second level.Firstly, this talk discusses the design and influence of a professional learning programme to upskill second-level teachers of mathematics, chemistry, biology to become qualified...

    Invited talk

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the fastest-growing fields dealing with understanding and building intelligent machines that can compute how to act effectively and safely in a diversity of novel challenges. Today, generative AI is applied in a varied collection of applications, from creating art to helping in education and improving healthcare. Generative AI has the potential to bridge...

  3. 209. The importance of laboratory instruction in the physics curriculum
    Ian Barden (Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Denmark)
    04/07/2023, 09:00
    Invited talk

    Laboratory instruction in physics is often justified with the claim "physics is an experimental subject." While this claim is certainly true, we can make much better and--one hopes--more convincing arguments for laboratory instruction in physics. This discussion is particularly important for many reasons. Among the reasons is that students are often unclear on why they have to spend time in...

  4. 207. Unexpected trajectories into higher education physics: Perspectives on gender, identity and culture
    Anna T. Danielsson (Stockholm University, Sweden)
    05/07/2023, 09:00
    Invited talk

    This talk will explore a diverse set of trajectories into higher education physics, zooming in on what has made physics studies possible for minoritised students. In doing so, mechanisms of in/exclusion will be highlighted, with a focus on how gender and social class are made relevant in students’ stories about their trajectories to higher education physics. The talk will also zoom out to...

  5. 170. From theoretical studies of liquid crystals to professional learning communities of teachers
    Mojca Čepič (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Education)
    05/07/2023, 11:40
    Oral presentation

    Plenary lecture;
    Marked as oral presentation.
    It was impossible to choose the target level, as the content extends from lower secondary to university level and in service teachers.

  6. 210. Use of quantitative methods in Physics Education Research: searching for new perspectives to inform theory and practice
    Italo Testa (University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy)
    06/07/2023, 09:30
    Invited talk

    Starting November 2022, Physical Review Physics Education Research, the flagship journal in physics education research community, has announced the establishment of a Statistical Modeling Review Committee to assess the quality of statistical modeling techniques in submitted papers. The establishment of this committee reflects the increasing number of submissions that exploit techniques such as...
