Keywords:
Citizen science, modern physics education, comparative studiesAbstract
We studied the basic knowledge of the nuclear (modern) physics of the high school students participating in our citizen science project “nuclear e-cology”. The initial test was conducted before they start any activity. The test was designed for quick answers. It consists of ten multiple choice questions. The test participants can complete it, available also on the internet, with unlimited time. We wish to present here some results. They were analyzed in four categories: all together, by country, by educational level and by gender. Results are based on 223 test answers from Polish, Thai and Russian students. This knowledge have been used for preparations and improvement of the educational materials used in the “nuclear e-cology” project.Downloads
