Workshop Teaching and Learning Physics Concepts Workshop

Description

Inquiry-based science education emphasizes active learning where students, through inquiry, answer a research question applying a scientific method based on experimentation or modelling approach. Experimentation is a primary means of inquiry. Modelling, as another essential aspect of the inquiry approach, allows students to represent and manipulate abstract concepts, explore relationships between variables and make predictions about the system behaviour. In the workshop, the principles of dynamic modelling will be introduced. Participants will develop their own dynamic models within the COACH learning environment software. Through hands-on activities, they will get insight how to integrate dynamic modelling activities into their educational practices.
