André Heck (University of Amsterdam), André Heck (University of Amsterdam), Giacomo Torzo, Mr Henning Vinjusveen Myhrehagen, Peter Demkanin, Ton ELLERMEIJER30/06/2025, 13:30Interplay of mathematics and physics (MATH)Symposium
In 1984 Jon Ogborn [1] published an article about Dynamical Modelling. He demonstrated clearly the enormous potential added-values for physics education. So one would expect by now, 40 years later, in most countries the application of computational modelling is an integral part in the modern physics curriculum for high schools. Reality is amazingly different. By now, as far as known, only in...

For over three decades, the Investigative Learning Science Environment (ISLE) approach has been implemented and used in many different countries, systems, and levels of instruction. Worldwide diffusion is confirmed by scientific literature, validating that an epistemologically authentic inquiry process, mirroring what physicists do, is a possible way to develop scientific abilities and become...

Dr Avraham Merzel (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem), David Sands, David Sands (independent)01/07/2025, 13:30Thermodynamics & Energy (THERMO)Symposium
This is the first 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...

The Piano Lauree Scientifiche (PLS) is a national initiative in Italy aimed at advancing physics education across high school and university levels. This symposium highlights research from the PLS framework, emphasizing inquiry-based learning, active engagement, and social inclusivity. It explores the importance of a national project to apply research findings in schools and promote...

A century after its formulation, we discuss the multifaceted implications for education of the vast cultural connections that quantum mechanics has helped establish between physics and other disciplines. Drawing on the most recent research in quantum mechanics education, we will address the epistemological paradigms that underpin our understanding of nature and the cultural significance of...

This symposium is proposed by the GIREP Thematic Group “Physics Preparation of Teachers in Grades K-6” and includes four contributions that address the importance of complementing physical experiences with imaginative forms of expressions. Two contributions suggest using stories and fairy tales, while the other two incorporate theatrical embodied representations.

This symposium focuses on collaborations about new trends in remote and virtual experimentation for teaching Physics between teachers of the International Council of Associations for Science Education (ICASE) and the Inter-American Roundtable for Scientific Education (MIDEC), both organizations are interested on improve Physics Education in Latin America. Nowadays, the laboratory of Physics is...
