  • Teaching Topic Preferences in the Nature–Human–Society Subject

    Open AccessAngelika Pahl, Reinhard TschiesnerARTICLEEducation Sciences2024

    This study focuses on the description and explanation of trainee teachers’ attitudes in specific educational situations. More precisely, it demonstrates the reasons why they prefer to teach certain Nature–Human–Society topics over others and, conversely, why they do not like teaching some of those topics—particularly science topics relating to physics and technology. The description of these arguments is relevant because trainee teachers’ attitud…

  • Young Children’s Ideas about Heat Transfer Phenomena

    Open AccessAngelika Pahl, Hans U Fuchs et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2022

    In this article, we present kindergarten children’s ideas about thermal phenomena before any educational intervention took place. In order to capture and account for the heterogeneity of the kindergarten group in this study, first teachers observed children’s exploration behavior, task orientation, science interest, and language comprehension in everyday kindergarten life using a structured observation form. Then, 24 children aged between 3.8 and…

  • Play-Based Physics Learning in Kindergarten

    Open AccessNathalie Glauser-Abou Ismail, Angelika Pahl et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2022

    This article highlights the importance of play as a learning approach in early physics education. It demonstrates the concept of an innovative didactic method that combines children’s free play with physics learning in kindergarten. This play-based learning approach enables children to experience and recognize physical laws in a self-directed, action-oriented, and playful manner. The article provides concrete insights into how kindergarten teache…

  • Embodied Simulations of Forces of Nature and the Role of Energy in Physical Systems

    Open AccessHans U Fuchs, Federico Corni et al.ARTICLEEducation Sciences2021

    We experience (perceive, act upon and react to, and conceptualize) dynamical processes in nature as agentive. Expressed differently, we experience events as resulting from activities and interactions of Forces of Nature (such as wind, light, heat, fluids, electricity, substances, and motion) that are conceived of as powerful agents acting and interacting in physical environments. An example would be sunlight creating heat in the Earth’s surface l…
