Abstract

Inquiry-based learning is the foundation of the New Greek Science Curricula since it fosters the development of 21st century skills such as collaboration, communication, creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving, as well as science process skills. The use of digital mobile devices significantly contributes to the development of these skills. The present laboratory attempts to train primary and secondary education teachers experientially, by employing the inquiry-based method in STEM-oriented Physics Laboratories using digital portable devices (STEM-IB-mLabs). The investigation focuses on the factors upon which Friction depends.
