Abstract

U suvremenom obrazovanju, nastava fizike kao jedno od temeljnih STEM područja ima sve veći značaj. Ključna pitanja danas su kako učenike aktivno uključiti u nastavni proces, zainteresirati ih za fiziku i potaknuti dalje u smjeru STEM područja koja su okosnica zanimanja 21. stoljeća. O upotrebi mikroračunala u nastavi se već dugo razmišlja, no tek je prije 5 godina, konstrukcijom posebno dizajniranog mikroračunala BBC micro:bit, za potrebe obrazovanja u Europskoj uniji, došlo do masovne primjene u školama. Paralelno tome razvijaju se ideje i metode kako ih uključiti u nastavu pojedinih predmeta. Nastava fizike, koja u središtu ima fizikalni pokus, logično je mjesto implementacije mikroračunala. Micro:bit otvara mogućnost razvoja brojnih istraživačkih ideja u nastavi fizike uz relativno male troškove. Upotrebom micro:bit uređaja kao mjernog instrumenta u fizikalnom pokusu, uz mogućnost prikupljanja i bežičnog slanja podataka, učenike uvodimo u istraživački proces. Premda je preciznost mjerenja manja nego s profesionalnom opremom, ona je dovoljna za detekciju i analizu fizikalnih pojava. Micro:bitom izmjereni podaci prenose se na računalo, te se ovisno o razini obrazovanja na kojoj se tema obrađuje, mogu izvoditi jednostavne i složene analize i fizikalna modeliranja. Moglo bi se reći da je micro:bit i prvi korak u smjeru razvoja i dizajna novih uređaja ili visokotehnoloških proizvoda. U obrazovanju 21. stoljeća važno je da se učenici praktično upoznaju s tim procesom.

Abstract (english)

In modern education, the teaching of physics as one of the fundamental STEM areas is of increasing importance. The key questions today are how to actively involve students in the teaching process, increase their interest in physics and encourage them further in the direction of STEM areas that are the backbone of 21st century occupations. The use of microcomputers in teaching has been considered for a long time, but only 5 years ago the construction of a specially designed microcomputer BBC Micro:bit for the needs of education in the European Union led to mass application in schools. In parallel, ideas and methods are being developed on how to include them in the teaching of individual subjects. Teaching physics, which has a physical experiment at its center, is the logical place to implement microcomputers. Micro:bit opens the possibility of developing numerous research ideas in physics teaching at relatively low cost. By using micro:bit as a measuring instrument in a physical experiment with the possibility of collecting and sending data wirelessly, we introduce students to the research process. Although the measurement accuracy is lower than with professional equipment, it is sufficient for the detection and analysis of physical phenomena. Micro:bit-measured data are transferred to a computer and, depending on the level of education at which the topic is covered, simple and complex analyzes and physical modeling can be performed. It could be said that micro:bit is also the first step in the direction of development and design of new devices or high-tech products. In 21st century education, it is important that students become practically familiar with this process.
