Open Physics: Primaria y Bachillerato

Presentamos un listado de varios recursos gratuitos para la enseñanza de la física en primaria y bachillerato.

El caso de los libros de textos gratuitos para bachillerato en Sudáfrica es sin duda encomiable ya que fue una labor de muchos (~400) voluntarios -de profesores y estudiantes de física- y digno de imitar por nosotros. Constituye una prueba más de que cuando la pasión se hace presente, y el trabajo se hace en colaboración, el esfuerzo produce muchos y jugosos frutos.

Se adjunta un enlace a un documento que explica el cómo lo hicieron. La idea para este proyecto, y el impulsador del mismo, fue del físico, Mark Horner http://www.markhorner.net/ .

NOTA: En los Estados Unidos existe una modalidad interesante en el caso de publicación de libros abiertos (Open Books) que vale la pena resaltar. Es el caso de Writing Spaces , un libro de texto para enseñar a escribir inglés a los estudiantes que se inician (freshman) en las universidades de los Estados Unidos. Cada capítulo es redactado por uno o varios profesores, pero cada capítulo como los arículos en las revistas de investigación es revisado por pares y, por ello, la publicación tiene el mismo valor que un artículo publicado en un journal/revista.

[Writing Spaces is an open textbook project for college-level writing studies courses. Each volume in the Writing Spaces: Readings on Writing series contains peer-reviewed collections of essays about writing—all composed by teachers for students—with each book available for download for free under a Creative Commons license.]

Physics in Primary Schools (PIPS): Free fun physics for young children
http://www.cap.ca/en/article/physics-primary-schools-pips-free-fun-physi...
The Physicists in Primary Schools (PIPS) project aims to inspire young children with the enjoyment and excitement of science. Twelve ‘presentations’ have been developed, which can be found on the Institute of Physics website at www.iop.org/pips. All the material is free to download. Physicists who use the materials to conduct primary school visits in the UK do not ask for payment from the schools. In these school visits, basic physics is explained through fun activities - then applications are linked with the children’s real life experiences!

Getting science education free in South Africa!
Our grade 10-12 science and maths textbooks are written by volunteers who want to support education and they are openly licensed and royalty-free. They are the basis for the up-to-date Siyavula Everything books. Which would you like to view?

iLABCENTRAL
http://www.ilabcentral.org/
iLABCENTRAL es un fabuloso proyecto de laboratorios en línea que permiten hacer experimentos en Física/Química/ Biología/ Matemáticas desde cualquier parte del mundo. El proyecto es una colaboración entre el Center for Educational Computing Initiatives del Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) y Northwestern University, aunque también participan otras universidades como, University of Queensland, Australia. Un ejemplo de equipos que se pueden usar son el Espectrómetro de Neutrones, y el Laboratorio de Radioactividad entre otros. Lista de experimentos que se pueden hacer en iLABS http://ilabcentral.org/allilabs_subjectarea.php

[Online laboratories (iLabs) are experimental facilities that can be accessed through the Internet, allowing students and educators to carry out experiments from anywhere at any time.]

[Lab is dedicated to the proposition that online laboratories - real laboratories accessed through the Internet - can enrich science and engineering education by greatly expanding the range of experiments that the students are exposed to in the course of their education. Unlike conventional laboratories, iLabs can be shared across a university or across the world. The iLab vision is to share lab experiments as broadly as possible within higher education and beyond. The ultimate goal of the iLab project is to create a rich set of experiment resources that make it easier for faculty members around the world to share their labs over the Internet.]

Who Needs To Lean Physics In The 21st Century — and Why?
http://www2.physics.umd.edu/~redish/Papers/EFRBarcelona.pdf
Es un charla dictada en agosto del 2000, en Barcelona, España, por el Prof. Edward Redish pionero en la investigación en la educación en física (PER,Physics Education Research), durante la 18ava conferencia bianual GIREP( Groupe International de Recherche sur l'Enseignement de la Physique.) http://iopscience.iop.org/0031-9120/35/6/602

[In this talk I consider what physics can offer to students, both as physics majors and in other sciences. The recent
increases in the technological character of the workplace appear likely to continue, leading to increasing numbers
of individuals who should learn something about science. For many of these people, understanding the character
of science, including learning new ways to think about and analyze the physical world, is an essential component
of what they need to learn. ...]
