Description
Designing instruction to make students aware of the rubber sheet analogy's strengths and weaknesses is crucial for fostering discussions about general relativity, gravity, and our solar system, as well as using models to visualise conceptually abstract ideas. This workshop aims to address essential approaches that aid in understanding the rubber sheet analogy's strengths and weaknesses, as identified (1,2). We will introduce hands-on activities utilising the rubber sheet analogy, involving participants in practical learning methods and showcasing assessment strategies.
