Description
This is the second part of a symposium that addresses the complex challenge of teaching energy as a crosscutting concept coherently across disciplines and grade levels. One key issue is the disparate vocabulary and norms each discipline uses to explain energy and the traditional forms-based teaching approach that often compartmentalizes students' understanding. Our discussions will focus on integrating theory with empirical methods, creating a unified language that spans different ages and disciplines, and connecting abstract concepts to everyday experiences. By emphasizing experimental-oriented approaches, the symposium will explore educational advancements and specially designed curricular materials to enhance energy education.
