Experimental. Considerations for a successful Practical Work

Including well-designed experiments in the daily teaching of natural sciences has a direct impact on the quality of learning and is, in addition to being attractive, beneficial in other aspects of the development of the student's personality. The benefits transcend the academic performance in the classroom and are projected in leadership, observation skills, social bonds, entrepreneurial spirit and reflective character. Students lead and direct their learning with conveniently implemented experiments that significantly enhance the natural long-term fixation of content. This book offers practical considerations and a pedagogical didactic framework to design and contextualize an experimental instance, beyond "doing for the sake of doing" that favor the emotional and intellectual maturation of the learner and the professional consolidation of the teacher.
