Symposium Physics Teacher Education and Professional Learning Symposium

Speaker

Dr Ignacio Julio Idoyaga (Universidad de Buenos Aires)

Description

This symposium highlights research in physics education in Latin America, focusing on technological and collaborative innovations. It features a professional learning community in Chile that uses real astrophysical data, remote laboratories in Costa Rica that facilitate distance education, a critical analysis of pseudoscientific discourses in Brazil, and the use of phenomenography in Mexico to improve conceptual understanding. These initiatives underscore the importance of interdisciplinarity and adaptation to specific contexts, proposing greater technological integration and international collaboration to enhance physics education in the region.
