Most galaxies, including our own Milky Way, harbor supermassive black holes at their centers. When a star wanders too close to one of these black holes, it can be torn apart by the black hole's incredible tidal gravitational field; this stellar destruction by tides transforms the spherical star into a “spaghettified” stream of stellar debris. In a matter of months, a fraction of this debris stream heats up and falls into the black hole, producing a flare of light. Studying this process, called a tidal disruption event (TDE), tests our understanding of physics in extreme conditions and illuminates the environment immediately surrounding the black hole, which is otherwise invisible. This conference will cover the physics of supermassive black holes and the effects of their disruptive tidal forces, incorporating recent observational and theoretical advances in the rapidly-developing study of TDEs. We will also discuss activities that participating teachers can use to illustrate some of these concepts in the classroom.

Nur wer die wissenschaftlichen Hintergründe zum Klimawandel versteht, kann nachhaltig und begründet handeln! Mit den Experimenten des LMU-Klimakoffers können die im Handbuch Klimawandel anschaulich aufbereiteten MINT-Aspekte des Klimawandels, u.a. seine lokalen und globalen Auswirkungen, von Schülergruppen erarbeitet werden.

Diese fachliche DPG-Fortbildung behandelt exemplarisch ausgewählte Themen der Astronomie, zum einen von den physikalischen Grundlagen her, zum anderen auch für den direkten Einsatz im Unterricht. Von der Geschichte der Erforschung des Sonnensystems mit Hilfe der Raumfahrt, Betrieb einer Schulsternwarte, einfachen Beobachtungen und Rechnungen geht es über Planeten und Exoplaneten zum Weltraumwetter, von der Multimessenger-Astronomie, Durchmusterung der Milchstraße und deren Schwarzen Loch zur Entfernungsbestimmung im Universum, und von visuellen und Teleskopbeobachtungen sowie dem „Paradoxon“ des dunklen Nachthimmels bis hin zur Darstellung von Physik und Astronomie in Filmen.

In summary, in our Dagstuhl Seminar we want to approach and explore the concept of learning from different angles. Besides considering technological developments, the seminar equally addresses aspects of data and model understanding, transdisciplinary methodology and applications, science communication, and education.

In a world increasingly driven by software, the role of a software engineer has never been more paramount. From the smartphones in our hands to the most intricate space exploration missions, software systems are at the very heart. Yet, as these systems continue to evolve in size, complexity, and importance, the education and training methods to prepare the next generation of software engineers must be equally adaptive and forward-looking. Over the past three decades, Software Engineering Education and Training (SEE&T) has continually risen to these evolving challenges. Initially, the focus was on defining the role of software engineers and how SEE&T integrates into broader engineering and computer science curricula. The current landscape, however, is shifting the focus towards enhanced knowledge transfer, emphasizing experiential learning, and aligning academic teaching with real-world industrial demands. The importance of effective communication, whether with clients or peers, the rising trend of project-based and problem-driven learning methodologies, and the symbiotic relationship between academia and industry form the very essence of modern SEE&T.

The 4th WCPE is organized jointly by the International Research Group on Physics Teaching (GIREP), The International Conference on Physics Education (ICPE), the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland in cooperation with the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy, University of Wrocław, Poland.

The idea of the conference is to gather participants involved in physics education from different perspectives and at different levels and to combine them in a general discussion on various aspects of education in a world of rapid changes and new challenges - for better mutual understanding and revival of learning of the young generation and the society as whole.

Rechtzeitig vor Beginn des Quantenjahres 2025, in dem die Quantenmechanik 100 Jahre alt wird, will die Fortbildung zur Geschichte der Quantenphysik Lehrerinnen und Lehrer auch historisch einmal auf den neusten Stand bringen. Zu oft werden im Physikunterricht Anekdoten und vermeintliche Geschichten wiederholt, die lange widerlegt sind: von h wie Hilfsgröße zu Heisenbergs Heureka auf Helgoland. Darüber hinaus können Episoden aus der Physikgeschichte auch im Unterricht didaktisch sinnvoll eingesetzt werden und helfen zudem, ein realistischeres Bild von der physikalischen Forschung zu geben.

This workshop brings together researchers and educators with a common mission: empowering students to become creative problem-solvers in a yet-unknown future. Central to our cause is the XLogoOnline learning environment, that is already embraced by a thriving community of over 100,000 learners each year. Developed collaboratively by leading universities and institutions such as ETH Zurich, Max-Planck-Institute of Technology, and University of Trier, this platform aims at providing the means to foster algorithmic problem-solving in compulsory schooling from primary to higher secondary school. Turtle Hack brings stakeholders together and serves as a nexus for sharing visions and expertise. We plan and discuss the future of our platform, guiding its trajectory for years to come. From workshops to brainstorming sessions, Turtle Hack is where theory meets practice, nurturing the next generation of programmers and innovators.
