Astro gravity

Physics is full of interesting topics, and one of the more fun ones is gravity. Students watched the videos showing astronauts’ life in space and freefall from stratosphere. They have also “experienced” weightlessness by calculating their weight on stars and other planets through the simulation.

The most effective teaching method that the teacher applied is to channel the chattiness of students into the constructive activity that will enhance learning. The teacher divided the class into teams of three and then organized the competition: solving problems within a default time limit. It works quite well because most students are active in the right way.

Video experiments for interactive learning

Kreativni_casovi_300px-04Our physics teacher Tijana Marinkovic keeps improving and refreshing her lessons and making the application of video presentations, animations and simulations of different physical processes more accessible to her student. Thanks to her efforts, our students can observe a physical process in the form of a video experiment, while at the same time being able to affect the process by directly changing the relevant parameters on their iPads.

Students often use www.phet.colorado.edu, a useful physics learning resource rich in interesting simulations and animated explanations of various physical phenomena.

Tijana encourages her students to practice solving physics problems by having one student solve a problem on the interactive whiteboard while other students carefully follow on their computers and tablets. In an effort to inspire her students and ignite their interest in physics even more, in addition to the regular homework assignments, Tijana hands out voluntary homework that is a bit more challenging whose completion guarantees an excellent mark in physics.

Classes structured in such a way help inspire students to explore the world of physics and they actively break down any preconceived notions students may have regarding the subject’s difficulty. Physics is made relatable and fun at Savremena International School.

I am extremely pleased and proud to be the parent of a Savremena student. During my first encounter with the school management, when I asked about my child’s potential enrolment, I saw how much love, enthusiasm and professionalism you put in your work. I was impressed by your approach, ideas and methods. I couldn’t believe something like this existed in our country! It doesn’t take long to realise that this is a school you would recommend to everyone. Creativity, modern technology, top-quality education, and most of all, the humaneness that can be seen throughout the school, make it truly different and worthy of its name – Savremena Gimnazija. With such an approach, the success of this school and, consequently, our children’s success, is unavoidable. Congratulations! Jelena Đorđević, Andrija’s mum
Contemporary in any sense of the word, our school offers functional knowledge and quality preparation for tertiary education in Serbia and abroad. Implementing modern and creative teaching in the classroom, where the teachers’ pedagogy and students’ performance are aligned with the highest academic standards for the high-school finals, our school develops linguistic, mathematical, scientific, artistic, cultural, technical and ICT competence, which is a prerequisite for further education and professional development. Teaching is supported by the interactive whiteboards and educational software, whereas practice exercises research and critical thinking.
