Learning with Light competition entry

Nikolaos's and Sotirios's entry to the competition is called "Lasers & Bubbles", a description can be found here.Describing their entryNikolaos and Sotiriossaid:

Our project combined prior knowledge, visit to a scientific lab, self-motivated team-working students, exploring as researchers, describing as scientists, inquiring and explaining, visiting & interacting with a museum's apparatuses. The educational outcome is stable knowledge about the core scientific ideas of atom, radiation and the interaction between them, better relationship between teachers and students, positive self-esteem of the students and educational material. The project's approach is not a typical/common didactic approach to Hellenic Schools. As teachers we saw our students acting, asking questions to trying and trying again and being happy. We succeeded to integrate the emotion component in learning, cooperation and consistency & continuity to teaching.
