Enhancing STEM Education through Modelling in SUPERCOMET 2 Project

Explore how the SUPERCOMET 2 Project is developing electronic learning modules related to superconducting materials, aiming to create hands-on demonstration kits for students and teachers. Discuss the various approaches to modelling in the context of the project materials, focusing on phenomena connected to superconductivity. Learn how modelling can improve the educational materials being developed in the project. Workshop activities and materials relevant for modelling will be presented and discussed. Join us to delve deeper into the world of superconductivity and electromagnetic phenomena through innovative educational tools.

  1. MPTL-11 WorkshopModelling in the context of the SUPERCOMET 2 Project Vegard Engstrøm, Simplicatus AS, NorwayFrancesca Bradamante, University of Udine, ItalyFrancisco Esquembre, University of Murcia, SpainLeopold Mathelitsch, University of Graz, AustriaMarisa Michelini, University of Udine, ItalyBernadette Schorn, University of Munich, GermanyVitor Duarte Teodoro, New University of Lisbon, Portugal

  2. Abstract - 1 During the ongoing EU project Superconductivity Multimedia Educational Tool, phase 2 (SUPERCOMET 2), materials developed in the previous SUPERCOMET project have been tried out by partners since 2005. The materials comprise a teacher seminar with hands-on activities combined with the use of interactive animations, text and video presenting electromagnetism and superconductivity with an accompanying teacher guide. The materials are translated/adapted and tried out at schools in 15 European countries.

  3. Abstract - 2 The project aims to develop new electronic learning modules connected to superconducting materials and applications of superconductivity during 2006 and 2007. Another aim of the project is to develop a kit of materials for hands-on demonstrations and experiments with high-temperature superconductors requiring cooling with liquid nitrogen that can be carried out by pupils and teachers in upper secondary school.

  4. Abstract - 3 After a brief introduction of the project's current status and a presentation of activities by different partners, the presentation will discuss different approaches to modelling in the context of the project materials, based on the recent workshop during GIREP 2006 in Amsterdam and subsequent project meetings and contributions.

  5. Workshop objectives Present some activities and materials from the project that might be relevant for modelling Discuss modelling of phenomena connected to superconductivity or electromagnetic phenomena relevant to understanding superconductivity Suggest ways modelling could be used to enhance the educational materials developed in the project
