Issue Date: | 2015 | Volume: | Teaching/Learning Physics: Integrating Research into Practice, Proceedings of the GIREP MPTL Conference 2014 | Editors: | Fazio, Claudio; Sperandeo Mineo, Rosa Maria | First Page: | 399 | Abstract: | In this paper we describe an inquiry-based module aimed at explaining the physical mechanisms underlying the astronomical phenomenon of seasonal changes . In the module's activities, radiation flow and energy transfers are quantitatively measured by the students in simplified situations to construct the models that account for evidences related to the seasons. The module has been implemented with 45 secondary school students (17-18 years old). Analysis of students’ answers to the pre- and post-test questionnaires supports the effectiveness of the proposed activities. | Conference Name: | Teaching/Learning Physics: Integrating Research into Practice, GIREP MPTL 2014 | Conference Place: | Palermo, Italy | Conference Date: | 7-12 luglio 2014 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/24241 | URL: | http://www1.unipa.it/girep2014/item6.html | ISBN: | 978-88-907460-7-9 | Fulltext: | open |
