Innovated historical experiments
HANZAL, Petr
The aim of this work is to innovate historical experiments so that they can be used in ordinary physics classes in primary schools. In the theoretical part is performed a research and analysis of the occurrence of historical experiments in curricular documents and in the 18 most widespread textbooks, published by Fraus, SPN, Prometheus and the Creative School. The practical part describes 6 historical experiments, together with a proposal of an alternative innovated execution with commonly available tools. Each experiment includes a procedure for performing the experiment in class. All proposed experiments were verified by professional circles dealing with the teaching of physics using qualitative research. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the participants, followed by a questionnaire survey. The verification took place at 5 events, which were attended by teachers from the South Bohemian Region. A total of 29 experts took part in the event. The teachers tried some of the experiments themselves, some of them were demonstrated. In the 1st phase of verification, interviews with teachers took place. A questionnaire survey was conducted after a series of interviews. The verification results were reflected in the individual experiments. Based on the verification of the survey results, it can be stated that each experiment is feasible in physics classes and is suitable for implementation in teaching.
