PHYSICS EDUCATION: PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE Join us online for engaging discussions and presentations about the future of physics education. The sudden changes to education brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and their implications for the future will be forefront. Discussions will encompass university-level and school-level physics education. SUBTHEMES Modes of delivery: What lessons have been learnt from COVID-19? Which experiences can be successfully transferred … Continue reading The International Conference on Physics Education 2022
Workshop Title: Makerspaces in Physics Workshop Time: Tuesday 6th December: AEDT 11:00-12:30, WITA 08:00-09:30, ICT 07:00-08:30 Intended Audience: School Teachers Workshop Details: Makerspaces are becoming increasingly common in Universities and Schools. However, it has been reported that Makerspaces are not well integrated into educational curricula. In this workshop, we provide some examples of Makerspace projects, we offer a tour of a Makerspace in Northern Thaliand, … Continue reading Workshop: Makerspaces in Physics
Workshop Title: Innovative physics teaching spaces Workshop Time: Tuesday 6th December: AEDT 09:00-10:30, WITA 06:00-07:30, ICT 05:00-16:30 Intended Audience: University and Secondary-School Physics Educators Workshop Details:There are often heated debates around teaching and learning spaces, from collaborative spaces for student centred learning to abolishing teacher centred lecture theatres. In both school and university contexts, economics and practicalities have led to designing multi-purpose learning spaces which … Continue reading Workshop: Innovative Physics Teaching Spaces
Workshop Title: Helping Students Generate Physics Inquiry Problems Workshop Time: Thursday 8th December: AEDT 17:30-19:00, WITA 14:30-16:00, ICT 13:30-15:00 Intended Audience: Secondary-school Educators Workshop Details:Physicists’ research usually begins when there are imperfections in previous experiments or theories, when new theories, data, materials, and experimental techniques are invented or developed, or when they discover conflicts between theories and experiments or within theories. However, these situations do not … Continue reading Workshop: Physics Inquiry Problems
Workshop Title: Advanced Physics Laboratories Workshop: Challenges and Opportunities Workshop Time: Tuesday 6th December: AEDT 17:30-19:00, WITA 14:30-16:00, ICT 13:30-15:00 Intended Audience: Undergraduate Physics Educators Undergraduate laboratories are an integral part of undergraduate education in science and engineering. A recent American Association of Physics Teachers report on teaching laboratories identified main goals of the undergraduate laboratory curriculum, with learning outcomes focused on: constructing knowledge, modeling, designing experiments, … Continue reading Workshop: Advanced Physics Laboratories
Workshop Title: The use of toys in teaching school physics Workshop Time: Tuesday 6th December: AEDT 09:00-10:30, WITA 06:00-07:30, ICT 05:00-16:30 Intended Audience: Primary and Secondary Educators Workshop Details:This workshop will showcase a range of toys suitable for use in teaching physics in schools and to increase graduate primary education students’ confidence and knowledge in STEM. Participants will engage in observing and discussing toys to … Continue reading Workshop: Toys and School Physics

Our aim with this conference was to be as inclusive as possible. We wanted a conference that was accessible to as many people as possible, which meant that we needed to keep costs low and have scholarships available for those who could not afford it. This meant that we could not use an “off the shelf” conference package, we researched and found technologies, usually free … Continue reading Lessons Learnt and Advice
