Web 2.0 applications as the tools of motivation in secondary physics education

Abstract

Abstract The aim of this study is to introduce some effective methods of integrating educational web 2.0 apps into Physics lessons, to share some experience and ideas how they can be used to support learning and make students more active in the learning process. This collection of apps focuses on the most popular activities of the students (using social media, playing online games etc.) A short insight will be given into the procedure how these modern techniques can foster the students’ creativity, develop their collaboration skills, give opportunity to deal with differentiated learning problems and, last but not least, change the students’ attitude towards learning Physics.
