Anno XXIII - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 1990 Moto browniano: esperimento di laboratorio. (Traduzione da Physics Education 23 (1988), a cura di Matilde Cilento)
Measuring the brownian motion of latex microspheres leads to an evaluation of Avogadro’s number. […]
Anno XLVI - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2013 Rolling and falling
I describe a simple experiment showing a non trivial phenomenon and the existence of a simple relation between two different quantities. The apparatus can be put togheter with simple materials, and has been used to introduce beginning students to experiments […]
Anno XXIV - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1991 Strategie di problem solving in fisica
The author, teacher of physics at I.T.I.S. “A. Volta” (high school) of Naples, scholar of Cognitive Science, has applied the strategies of problem solving to physics. This approach gives the students the opportunity to work in an organized and productive way. […]

Anno XXV - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1992 Una esperienza didattica con risultato incoraggiante
The high school introductory physics course is a particularly delicate moment. One must avoid giving the pupils the impression that physics is mainly related to text-book and school lab and not to real everyday life. This paper describes an experience in which the students were enabled to take a correct attitude towards physics from the start, […]
Anno XXV - n.3 - luglio/settembre 1992 Una soluzione geometrica di un problema di ottica
A formula for calculating the index of refraction of a transparent plane parallel sheet is derived geometrically, the known quantities being the thickness of the sheet, the angle of the incident ray of light and the lateral displacement of the outgoing ray. […]
Anno XLVIII - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2015 Utilizzo dei codici QR per una caccia al tesoro scientifica
QR codes have been used to communicate clues of a Christmas scientific treasure hunt for students of first year of Science oriented High School. […]
