Description
Students’ interest in physics is currently an important issue for effective learning and teaching in many countries. We report about the results of an extensive physics students’ survey at the end of compulsory education and the beginning of upper secondary school in Georgia. Students’ interest in physics is investigated in different contexts regarding ‘out of school’ experiences, attitudes toward environmental issues, and science and technology. Comparison of the two study results will be presented. Some recommendations for the development of physics curricula, textbooks and teacher education programs in the country are elaborated.
