CfP: Developments in physics teaching and learning in HE, online, November
Monday 9 – Tuesday 10 November 2020
Organised by the Institute of Physics (IOP) Higher Education Group and the IOP History of Physics Group
The way that students learn, and the way we teach, has changed a lot during the last 100 years partly due to evolutions in physics itself, partly due to changes in technology and partly due to better understanding of what is effective. Students’ learning, and the concept of "active learning", have many dimensions which have changed over time. The purpose of physics education (both for students and teachers) is often neglected as a crucial factor as is the need for an internal focus in the student's mind.
This meeting, jointly organised by the IOP Higher Education and History of Physics groups, will be an excellent opportunity to discuss the developments in Physics teaching in Higher Education over the last 100 years, what we can learn from this perspective, and how learning and teaching physics at University may evolve in the future.
Abstract submission
Contributions for oral and poster presentations are invited. Abstracts should be 500 words or less and submitted online no later than 15 August 2020. Submission link:
