Anno XXVIII - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1995 Riflessioni sull’insegnamento della fisica ad allievi non udenti nella scuola superiore
Peculiarities and problems of deaf high school students are outlined, related to the obstacles they meet in learning Physics, namely the difficulty in abstracting, generalizing, and using rules with flexibility. In particular, the typical misunderstandings due to deaf natural language are pointed out, […]
Anno XXXII - n.1 - gennaio/marzo 1999 Risoluzione di problemi aperti in Fisica come piccole ricerche
As we realized after a detailed monitoring that students can easily get lost in solving problems of physics, this article propose a new didactic tecnique .nearer to the researcher work whose purpose is to stimulate students to sustain their interest in physics, […]
Anno XXVIII - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 1995 Schematizzazioni frettolose nell’insegnamento della fisica: il caso dei condensatori
Dealing with a new physical subject one often goes on too hastily in the initial stage, leaving some uncertainties and ambiguities in definitions and in basic features. Furthermore one performs schematizations and simplifications which may be in contradiction with fundamental principles or experimental results. […]
Anno XLIII - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 2010 “Scienze della Terra o Fisica?”, ovvero “Discussione sulle maree”
A ‘physically consistent’ way of explaining tides to secondary school pupils is suggested and described. […]
Anno XXIX - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1996 Scuola di media
The concept of mean is one of those proposed to students mainly relying on intuition. This paper, which is addressed to teachers, has strictly didactic aimsand, although making progressive generalisations, gives examples from the basics of physics. […]
Anno LVI - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2023 Semplice deduzione delle traiettorie del campo kepleriano e dell’oscillatore armonico isotropo
The recent proof of the First Kepler Law by A. Simha avoids the direct use of calculus. In this paper the procedure is made a little more precise, generalized to all central fields and applied to all Keplerian orbits and to the isotropic harmonic oscillator. […]
Anno L - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2017 Sincronizziamo gli orologi
Synchronizing distant clocks at rest in the same reference frame is far from a trivial issue. A review is presented of the several problems involved and of the practical approaches adopted in the course of time. The conventionalist view is discussed, […]
Anno XLVIII - n.1 - gennaio/marzo 2015 Spazi diversi in tempi uguali lungo le corde di una circonferenza
The conditions why objects rolling down different inclined tracks cover different distances in equal interval of time are studied. We want to demonstrate that the time taken by a ball to cover a chord of a circumference because of gravity, does not depend on the length of the chord itself. […]
Anno XXXI - n.3 - luglio/settembre 1998 Sperimentazione didattica dell’ipertesto multimediale “Dentro l’Atomo”
The multimedial software “Inside the Atom” introduces atomic structure through an historical perspective. A test was carried out with fourth year students of a scientific highschool aimed at: (1) finding what difference in learning was achieved by using the software, with respect to traditional practice; […]
