Period
II semestre dal Mar 1, 2021 al Jun 11, 2021.
Learning outcomes
The course deals with Physics themes that are fundamental for the scientific training of the future School teachers by means of a guided training module in which in addition to the excecution of simple experiments, particular attention is devoted to the preparation of the experiments themselves (e.g. Experiment Description Sheet), the physical set up of the experiments (with different materials and instruments), the definition and the comparison of the experimental methods and procedures, the analysis and the discussion of the experimental data, and the preparation of laboratory and teaching reports. Students are guided to experiments and design instruction strategies aimed at helping high school pupils in understanding physics. They acquire familiarity with both traditional and new teaching tools and multimedia and technologies.
Program
The course is structured in lectures in which the main theoretical aspects will be discussed and the physical topics and laws presented, as well as the experimental method, instruments and experimental procedures and analysis of errors. All the lectures will be also available online. The main part of the course will be dedicated to the experimental activities, some of which wil be designed by the students themselves.
The laboratory sessions will be performed in the laboratory (Cyberphysics laboratory).
The strategy required for an effective learning of the methodology and the contents of the experimental part is to actively and regularly participate in laboratory activities and sessions (participation to the experiments is mandatory).
LECTURES
- Errors theory and basics of Mechanics
- Electricity and Circuits
- Geometrical optics fundamentals
- Principles of wave optics
- Thermology and calorimetry
LABORATORY
- Creation of setup for experiments
- Preparation of laboratory cards
- Analysis and discussion of the experimental data
EXPERIMENTAL SESSIONS:
- Hooke law
- Deviation and distribution of forces in simple machines
- Simple pendulum (g determination)
- Resistances measurements, Kirchoff laws verification, voltage division
- Geometrical optics (lens equation, eye model, microscope, ...)
- Wave optics (interference and diffraction )
- Calorimeter (heat capacity and specific heat capacity)
The tools needed for effective learning of the theoretical part are the teaching material provided by the teacher.

Examination Methods
During the exam, students must show that:
- they are able to autonomously prepare teaching experimental sessions about physics
- they know and understand the fundamental concepts and formulas of Experimental Error Theory, measurements instruments and experimental methodology
- they are familiar with physical quantities and laws discussed during the course
- they have a good capability of realizing an experiment, in particular, about experimental sessions performed during the course
- they are able to analyse experimental data by means of common softwares and discuss them as function of measurement procedures and experimental parameters used.
The final exam consists of two parts, each of which will contribute 50% to the determination of the vote:
(i) an oral examination, that can be given either in presence or remotely, and
(ii) in a written part. This last is a Laboratory Report about one of the experiments performed during the year.
The admission to the oral exam is subject to the approval of the lab report, that would be done either in Italian or English according to students preference.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and soon also via the Univr app.
Double degree
The University of Verona, through a network of agreements with foreign universities, offers international courses that enable students to gain a Double/Joint degree at the time of graduation. Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
It's online Erasmus + - double joint degree a.y. 2024/2025
The latest Call for applications for Double/Joint Degrees at the University of Verona is available now!
For the presentation of the LA and subsequent recognition of CFUs, please refer to the International Mobility Regulations.

Alternative learning activities
In order to make the study path more flexible, it is possible to request the substitution of some modules with others of the same course of study in Mathematics at the University of Verona (if the educational objectives of the modules to be substituted have already been achieved in the previous career), or with others of the course of study in Mathematics at the University of Trento.Documents

Need to activate a thesis internship
For thesis-related internships, it is not always necessary to activate an internship through the Internship Office. For further information, please consult the dedicated document, which can be found in the 'Documents' section of the Internships and work orientation - Science e Engineering service.
Final examination regulations
Upon completion of the Master’s degree dissertation students are awarded 32 CFU. The final examination consists of a written dissertation on a specific topic agreed with a supervising professor and presented to a commission (Dissertation Committee).
The dissertation can be high-level theoretical or experimental (in the latter case, it may focus on either basic or applied research), it can deal with a theoretical topic or propose the resolution of a specific problem, or description of a work project, and may be carried out at universities, research institutions, schools, laboratories and companies in the framework of internships, traineeships, study stays in Italy and abroad. The dissertation must be original and written by the student under the guidance of a Supervisor. At the request of the student, the dissertation may be written and presented in Italian.
Professors belonging to the Mathematics Teaching Committee, the Department of Computer Science, and any associated departments may be appointed as Supervisors, as well as any professors from the University of Verona whose area of interest (SSD - Scientific-disciplinary Sector) is included in the teaching regulations of the degree programme.
Students may take the final exam only if meeting all requirements set by the School of Sciences and Engineering.
The Master's degree in Mathematics is obtained by successfully passing the final examination and thus earning the 120 CFU included in the study plan.
The material submitted by the student for the final examination will be examined by the Dissertation Committee, which comprises three professors, possibly including the Supervisor, and appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee. The final examination will be assessed based on the following criteria: the student’s performance during the entire study programme, the knowledge acquired during the dissertation work, their understanding of the topic and autonomy of judgment, their ability to apply such knowledge, and communicate effectively and fully all the outcomes of the work and the main results obtained.
The final examination and the degree ceremony will be carried out, in one of the four graduation sessions throughout the academic year, by the Final Examination Committee appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee, and made up of a president and at least four members chosen from among the professors of the University.
For further information, please refer to the Final examination regulations.
