Physics education research and physics teacher education

We are interested in how physics education should be developed, how physics is learnt and taught at schools, how physics should be taught, how do we develop physics teacher education to respond to these needs and how we can inspire young people to study physics and other natural sciences.

Research group description

We are interested in how physics education should be developed, how physics in being learnt and taught at schools, how physics should be taught, how do we develop physics teacher education to respond to these needs and how we can inspire young people to study physics and other natural sciences. We are responsible for the physics teacher education and teaching assistant training at the department of physics.
