Anno XXVIII - n.1 - gennaio/marzo 1995 The purpose of this article is to get the student acquainted with simple mathematical techniques allowing her (him) to investigate some basic properties of keplerian motion. […]
Anno LI - n.3-4 - luglio/dicembre 2018 An educational path on optical spectroscopy was elaborated as a bridge between classical and modern physics and centered on the interpretation of optical spectra in laboratory mode for upper secondary school students. The proposal was developed as part of a PhD research in physics education in the theoretical framework of the Model of Educational Reconstruction (MER) and employing Design-Based Research (DBR) methodology which implies an iterative revision of the implemented intervention modules experimented in classroom. […]
Anno XLV - n.1 - gennaio/marzo 2012 Reasoning on what happens when connecting two charged capacitors suggests a general procedure for evaluating the energy associated with the propagation of electromagnetic waves. […]
Anno XXVIII - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1995 We test experimentally the free electron gas model for electric conduction in metals by means of measurements of the Hall coefficient. Full details for the construction of the experimental apparatus are given. […]
Anno XLV - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2012 In recent years the knowledge levels in science of freshmen dropped constantly in Italy and in other countries. This might be because the excess of information in today?s secondary school textbooks makes identifying and mastering the important concepts difficult. Results found by different groups that examined pre-university textbooks in a number of different countries are reported. […]
