In partnership with Physics Partners: Expert Practical Help for Schools
10 subject-knowledge webinars with experts - for you to watch live or on demand.
These sessions are aimed at trainees, ECTs and non-specialists in physics and will
- Improve your subject knowledge and strengthen your understanding of core concepts
- Explore effective strategies to address common misconceptions and enhance student learning
- Identify the big ideas and links across the field of physics to create a cohesive learning experience.
Sessions will be interactive and allow time to identify own ideas and discuss how to develop own teaching.
Transform your teaching and make a lasting impact on your students.
Format: 10 online sessions, each 90 minutes long, spread over two terms.
You do not need to attend all 10 sessions - you can pick which ones are best for you!
