The students were asked to describe the displacement of a ball that went from one student to another by adding individual displacements between each two students.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>Learning through software and innovative approach<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>The Physics and Mathematics teachers<\/strong> concluded the lecture by giving the students access to a software on their iPads where they can play around with vectors and observe their results in real time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Savremena\u2019s students learnt about other vectors, such as forces and velocities and the way they affect the motion of a body. <strong>International School Savremena promotes innovative approaches to teaching<\/strong>, and this project is one of the methods used to present learning as a creative and inspirational activity.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Year 10 students had a unique chance to explore the topic of vectors featuring a special guest.
