Active strategies - option and necessity for teaching science in secondary and high school education

摘要

The objectives of the first study of the paper was finding teachers’ opinion regarding selection criteria for didactic methods as well as establishing the weight that active-participative methods have in the teaching-learning process. The results of the study show that for the teachers from “Mathematics and sciences” curriculum, the above mentioned methods do not represent a priority. The objectives of the second study were experimenting some active-participative strategies and establishing their efficiency in the study of Physics. The results confirm the fact that using active-participative methods can lead to a significant increase of efficiency in studying Physics.
