Many students taking their first course in physics are afraid that the course may be very difficult for them. The Interactive Online Interventions (IOIs) project is developing socio-psychological interventions that help students learn and succeed. The IOIs will cultivate students' sense of belonging in introductory physics courses, and help them learn how to learn physics. They enhance the...
Research has shown that key concepts in quantum physics for upper-secondary education include, among others, wave-particle duality, and the fundamental principles of quantum physics, such as superposition and quantum measurement. This contribution presents a teaching-learning sequence designed to address these concepts, with a focus on sharing experience with teaching it to upper-secondary...
This contribution presents an innovative, game-based approach to developing students' cognitive skills in physics education through the use of online escape rooms. These interactive digital environments offer context-rich problem-solving scenarios, requiring collaboration, logical reasoning, and the application of physics concepts. By integrating different puzzles and challenges within a...
In our workshop we provide secondary school physics teachers with an insight into the effective usage of Arduino for teaching kinematics. With Arduino-based classroom measurements, we aim to enhance students knowledge, while we provide with an action-oriented learning process, which contributes to competency development and plays an important role in the improvement of students’ attitude...
Artificial intelligence is transforming the landscape of education, offering new ways to enhance learning experiences and personalize feedback. This interactive workshop explores how AI can support multimedia-based assessment and feedback in physics education, focusing on its application in laboratory settings. Specifically, we will demonstrate how Large Language Models (LLMs), such as...
