Scientific Debate - uma técnica útil para introduzir no ensino, tanto em grandes grupos de alunos como em mais pequenos.

Inscrições na sessão até 29 de junho.

As if they were students, participants will experience at first hand a scientific debate on how to calculate areas and volumes using infinitesimal procedures.

At the end of the debate, we'll analyze the reasons why this method is particularly well-suited to teaching threshold concepts to large audiences.

We'll also spell out the role (and difficulties) for the teacher in the various phases.

Nota: although only teachers who are familiar with integral calculus will be able to take part in the initial debate, teachers who are not specialists in these issues can still take part in the workshop (examples in ethics and foreign language teaching will be given at the end of the workshop).
