Integrate Physics Teaching with Technology: Get Support

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on a physics teacher seeking technical assistance to integrate technology into their teaching methods. They express a desire to create an "imaginary physics world" using software, gadgets, and innovative classroom structures. However, the conversation quickly shifts to criticism of the teacher's approach, questioning the relevance of physics to everyday life and the clarity of their request. Respondents emphasize the importance of making physics relatable to students, suggesting that a disconnect in the teacher's understanding may contribute to students perceiving physics as irrelevant. The dialogue reflects concerns about the teacher's qualifications and their ability to effectively engage students in the subject matter.

As i am physics teacher i am looking for some technical help so i can integarte my knowledge with technical world in more efficient way ( software , gadgets , method , human behaviour integration in teaching , environment in class , structure of classroom and many more points)

so please suggest me how could i can develop this imaginary physics world using technology

looking for your support
 
Science news on Phys.org
3D modelling software is available and some quite good products are free for educational purposes.
These include 'game engines' which have basic physics as part of the package,
(Collisions, Gravity, Lighting etc).
 
The department's 7 research groups and engineers are the foundation for a broad spectrum of Department of Physics and Technology has an extensive international collaboration including CERN and the European Space Agency, research, education and innovation.

Sorry, but first of all, what is this "imaginary physics world"?

If you are a teacher, and your attitude towards physics is to think that it is divorced from everyday life, then no wonder many kids grew up thinking physics is esoteric and irrelevant!

(Not that I'm expecting an answer since you have not followed up with this thread since your first post.)

ZapperZ,

Thanks for articulating my thoughts- I'm usually at a loss whether to respond to poorly-thought-out, hastily scribbled, etc. posts (seriously, a teacher who writes 'i'?)

A timid careful impression - yes, timidly given impression -
maybe the poster is a teacher but authorized to teach some area OTHER THAN physical sciences. Is the poster authorized to teach biological sciences, or maybe "health sciences", or maybe Chemistry?

Some times, a system will intentionally wrongly assign a teacher to a class because the system just does not have a properly qualified person readily available to take the class.
 
I deeply respect people who are engaged in self-education. Nevertheless the problem of self-education is as follows. A person reads textbooks and forms his own opinion about what he has read. Then he tries to solve a problem and faces the fact that his answer is not equal to the one in the end of the book. Then he goes to specialists and asks them what the story is. He expects that specialists will help him to solve the problem and they will do that by using his own understandings and...
