Book excerpt: Nations worldwide consider education an important tool for economic and social development, and the use of innovative strategies to prepare students for the acquisition of knowledge and skills is currently considered the most effective strategy for nurturing engaged, informed learners. In the last decade especially, European countries have promoted a series of revisions to their curricula and in the ways teachers are trained to put these into practice. Updating curriculum contents, pedagogical facilities (for example, computers in schools), and teaching and learning strategies should be seen as a routine task, since social and pedagogical needs change over time. Nevertheless, educational institutions and actors (educational departments, schools, teachers, and even students) normally tend to be committed to traditional practices. As a result of this resistance to change within educational systems, implementing educational innovation is a big challenge. The authors of the present volume have been involved with curriculum development since 2003. This work is an opportunity to present the results of more than a decade of research into experimental, inventive approaches to science education. Most chapters concern innovative strategies for the teaching and learning of new contents, as well as methods for learning to teach them at the pre-university school level. The research is focused on understanding the pedagogical issues around the process of innovation, and the findings are grounded in analyses of the limits and possibilities of teachers’ and students’ practices in schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research in Physics Education has to do with the search of solutions to the complex problem of how to improve the learning and teaching of physics. The complexity of the problem lies in the different fields of knowledge that need to be considered in the research. In fact, besides the disciplinary knowledge in physics (which must be considered from the conceptual, the historical, and the epistemological framework), one has to take into account some basic knowledge in the context of psychology and the cognitive sciences (for the general and contextual aspects of learning) and some basic knowledge in education and comunication (for what concerns teaching skills and strategies). Looking back at the historical development of the research one may recognize that the complexity of the endeavour was not clear at first but became clear in its development, which shifted the focus of the research in the course of time from physics to learning to teaching. We may say that the research started, more than 30 years ago, with a focus on disciplinary knowledge. Physicists in different parts of the western world, after research work in some field of physics, decided to concentrate on the didactical comunication of physical knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E-mail: [email protected] Las ecuaciones de la Física no relacionan sin más números, vectores o tensores de índole matemática, sino cantidades diádicas formadas con esos componentes vinculados a unidades diversas que indican cantidades de magnitudes naturales. Entonces, ¿por qué se opera con los entes diádicos de la Física como si fuesen elementos matemáticos puros?, ¿no supone esta ficción una aberración que envilece todo el conocimiento científico? Algunos autores han advertido de esta laguna crítica, que oculta a la Física un pilar tan fundamental. Pueden citarse preeminentes físicos como Clerk Maxwell o Max Planck, entre otros clásicos. Todos manifestaron a su manera los escrúpulos suscitados por la tradicional e injustificada forma de operar con las magnitudes físicas y sus unidades. Aquí se descubre, describe y resuelve tan notable paradoja de «aritmetización» de la Física y se construye un álgebra rigurosa y coherente para las cantidades de magnitudes. La Primera álgebra de magnitudes resuelve la hipótesis falsa del Sistema Internacional de Unidades, consistente en suponer negligentemente que las magnitudes físicas presenten estructura multiplicativa de grupo abeliano. No puede ser así, como se demuestra en este trabajo. Finalmente, se pone de manifiesto el camino lógico e inapelable que conduce del álgebra de magnitudes a los espacios «dismétricos», que se estudian con mayor profundidad en el segundo volumen de esta obra. La «dismetría» es una nueva y poderosa herramienta para representar con precisión los fenómenos físicos de un universo variable. Esta nueva Física acoge multitud de innovaciones, que sin duda sabrán apreciar muchos investigadores emprendedores. The equations of Physics do not simply relate numbers, vectors or tensors of a mathematical nature, but rather dyadic quantities formed with these components linked to various units that indicate quantities of natural magnitudes. So, why do we operate with the dyadic entities of Physics as if they were pure mathematical elements? Doesn't this fiction suppose an aberration that debases all scientific knowledge? Some authors have warned of this critical gap, which hides such a fundamental pillar from Physics. Pre-eminent physicists such as Clerk Maxwell or Max Planck, among other classics, can be cited. All of them expressed in their own way the scruples aroused by the traditional and unjustified way of operating with physical quantities and their units. Here such a remarkable «arithmeticization» paradox of Physics is discovered, described and solved and a rigorous and coherent algebra is constructed for the quantities of magnitudes. The First Algebra of Magnitudes resolves the false hypothesis of the International System of Units, consisting of negligently assuming that physical magnitudes have a multiplicative abelian group structure. It cannot be like that, as demonstrated in this work. Finally, the logical and unappealable path that leads from the algebra of magnitudes to the «dysmetric» spaces is revealed, which are studied in greater depth in the second volume of this work. «Dysmetry» is a powerful new tool for accurately representing the physical phenomena of a variable universe. This new Physics welcomes a multitude of innovations, which will undoubtedly be appreciated by many enterprising researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we develop step by step the FIRST ALGEBRA OF MAGNITUDES, the specific dyadic algebra for physical quantities, in order to rectify the sloppy hypothesis of «arithmetization» of Physics, normalized by the International System of Units in sections 2.1, 5.2 , 5.4.1 and 5.4.6 of his brochure SI, which is tolerated by a clueless scientific community. With dyadic algebra, full meaning is given to the meanings of the laws, equations and compound units of Physics, a sense that we all neglect today . As a culmination, the «DYSMETRIC» FORECAST is reached, with innumerable and far-reaching implications for the enrichment of physical models and the development of infinite innovations. In this way, the trap of «arithmetizing» Physics in which we all easily fall, even the most reputable and award-winning scientists, is ended. Except for one in the entire history of Physics, which was Newton, the only one who operated with magnitudes through the affinity of physical quantities with the elements of geometry, teaching us that, although Physics is not «arithmetizable», on the other hand it is it can be «geometrized». It seems incredible, but it is a grotesque fact that nowadays no one cares about what is really done when operating with physical magnitudes or what is the full meaning of the composite magnitudes or of the analytical formulations, which underlie all of Physics, for what no one should take a step without first having clarified this knowledge. On the contrary, it turns out that operations apparently as elementary as the multiplication of a meter by a kilogram have no arithmetic explanation, because no one identifies what the multiplier of that product is, which does not multiply numbers, but rather dyads or quantities of length and mass. Despite which, it seems that no one is bothered by such a ridiculous embarrassment. Can one call himself a physicist who cannot rigorously define this simple operation and does not care? Can a science be called Physics that lacks a coherent algebra to operate with its fundamental elements, the quantities of physical phenomena? The truth is that the defect is too gross not to take it into account. All this as a consequence of the fact that the current arithmetic hypothesis that postulates the abelian multiplicative group structure for the magnitudes is impossible. Such a structure is only valid for internal additive laws, it is not valid for external multiplicative laws. Obviously, this situation is shameful and pernicious for Physics, it is unsustainable and must be corrected as soon as possible. The dyadic algebra of magnitudes, in addition to giving meaning to the laws, equations, and compound magnitudes, reveals striking consequences, such as the non-existence of inverse elements of physical units, since heterogeneous multiplicative dyadic operations are not internal composition laws, but external. In turn, it naturally leads to «dysmetry», which makes it possible to represent the infinite physical realms of empty space and which radically transforms the vision of physical constants, incompatible in an absolute sense with «dysmetric» spaces, including the number pi and the speed of light.

This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the urgent need for a large and systematic analysis of current interdisciplinary (ID) research and practice. It demonstrates how ID is essentially a cognitive phenomenon, something different from the frivolous and inconsequential attempt of trying to overcome the disciplinary competencies and exigencies. By ID, the authors show that it is a manifestation of the transversal rationality that underlies current scientific activity. It is the very progress of specialized disciplines that requires interdisciplinary new research practices and new forms of articulation between domains, something that has a strong impact on the traditional disciplinary structure of scientific and educational institutions. Divided into two parts, the book presents a conceptual framework as well as several case studies on ID practices. The book aims at covering three main themes. It contributes to the stabilization of ID meaning and characterizes the main ID theorizations which have been proposed until now. It builds an innovative and broad understanding of the several ID determinations as an essentially cognitive phenomenon and of its institutional implications at the level of disciplinary structures and curricular organization. Finally, it distinguishes and maps the diversity of ID procedures and practices which are being used and tested by contemporary scientific and educational institutions. This book is addressed to philosophers, scientists and every one interested in science production and reproduction, including science teaching.
