Dilling F., Kraus S.F. (eds.) Comparison of Mathematics and Physics Education II: Examples of Interdisciplinary Teaching at School

Springer Spektrum, 2022. — 340 p. — (MINTUS – Beiträge zur mathematisch-naturwissenschaftlichen Bildung). — ISBN 13 9783658364144.Interdisciplinary teaching is considered as one of the main goals of education worldwide. At the same time, it poses an immense challenge to teachers who have been trained in only one of the combines subjects. This is true even for closely related disciplines such as mathematics and physics. In this volume, practice-oriented educational comparisons are made across various topics that are highly relevant in both subjects. Furthermore, practical examples are presented in the form of lesson plans in which exemplary implementation in class is presented, considering both educational perspectives.Introductory Remarks and Concept of the Book.
