Speaker

Description

We will present the results of the project initiated by SwissMAP, which aims to introduce the themes of cosmology and general relativity at upper secondary level (senior high school). After an overview of the motivations and challenges inherent in this educational effort, we will provide illustrative examples of activities, as well as the feedback collected during field implementation and the resulting impact on students.
