When a Physics wind blows in geography lectures.

Applying physics concepts in daily contexts or in the context of another school science subject is difficult for quite some students. When studying the atmosphere in the geography lecture, some concepts are explained using physics principles. In this project, we will study whether students are more able to apply physics concepts in a geography context when they are taught with small experiments in the geography lectures. We will also study whether tablet pc's can used in this context.
