SHORT BIO
I am a Ph.D. student in Didactics of Physics at the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the Roma Tre University in Rome (Italy). Since my Master Degree in Astrophysics, I began to be involved with issues of teaching Physics in High Schools with a focus on its laboratorial aspect. My research project deals now with the teaching of Special Relativity, and I strictly collaborate with some high schools of Rome in creating laboratorial experiences. I supervise undergraduate students during their first year through support activities about the teaching of General Physics and Experimental Physics. I also collaborate with the group of Outreach and Communication of Science of my Department during the events with general public.
