This symposium discusses the modes and means for introduction of contemporary physics to pre-university level education illustrated by a few successful examples. Examples come from soft matter physics in liquid crystals and hydrogels and solid-state physics in superconductors. The role of analogies is discussed and illustrated in analogy between superconductors and particle physics. In addition, a development of a professional development programme that will bridge the gap to new knowledge for active in-service teachers is presented.

Abstract

This symposium discusses the modes and means for introduction of contemporary physics to pre-university level education illustrated by a few successful examples. Examples come from soft matter physics in liquid crystals and hydrogels and solid-state physics in superconductors. The role of analogies is discussed and illustrated in analogy between superconductors and particle physics. In addition, a development of a professional development programme that will bridge the gap to new knowledge for active in-service teachers is presented.
