Teaching method
1.The teaching method is based on a continuous student activity during the semester.
2.For the understanding of concepts and laws of Physics, a mixed approach, with both theory and experiment is followed .
3. In laboratory sessions, besides the demonstration and verification of Physics laws, emphasis is given to metrology.
Continuous involvement of the students (beyond lectures e laboratory sessions) through packages of exercises and laboratory guidelines available on Clip.
