Physics

In Theoretical-Practical lessons a theoretical exposition of each subject is made which is immediately followed by the resolution of application exercises.
In the laboratorial component students should perform four group works ( Rotation Dynamics, Magnetic Forces between fields and currents, Electromagnetic Induction and Speed of Light measurement ) and to deliver a final statement at the
end of the lesson.

Develop knowledge and ability to understand the field of physics, relying on the knowledge of secondary level and adequate and updated texts of international authors.
The understanding of the acquired knowledge is promoted by the realization of exercises and practical laboratories, which develop a professional attitude towards work.
The student is required to engage in practical situations (into the laboratory) or theoretical-practical (written exercises), where the student should make judgments and decisions.
The subjects taught are largely basic concepts of technical and scientific literacy, relevant to understanding the nature and application processes for communicating ideas with scientific basis.
The completion of laboratory work, in group, allows the exercising of interpersonal exchange of ideas and the discussion of problems and solutions.
