    Oral presentation

    We present a study of colloquial knowledge in understanding concepts in the field of thermodynamics.The TCE test was adapted to local specificities [1]. Approximately 400 people were surveyed. The aim of the study was to find out how the understanding of concepts: heat, temperature and energy evolve with the age of the respondents, and whether education significantly changes the...

    Oral presentation

    Quantum boom has brought quantum physics to everyday life, e.g., to movies or newspaper articles. But do Finnish university students with different majors notice it? Here, we explore their perceptions about the presence of quantum physics in their lives (past), its importance (present), and a possible interest to study it (future). We find that noticing the word “quantum” in their free time...

    Informal learning and non-formal learning of physics
    Oral presentation

    Covering the most exciting results that push the limits of our knowledge about the Universe is a challenge for school education. Several complications hinder the direct implementation of such content into school curricula. This gap can be bridged by outreach activities. We report on outreach activities in particle physics that are organised in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, most notably the...
