Using open educational resources in physics

Abstract

In the context of recent years, distance learning has acquired new values, being predominant in times of crisis. In addition, today’s society connects in the virtual environment, experiencing a true digital revolution in all fields. Given this progress, school education must adapt. Digital platforms flood the educational market and provide teachers with tools for creating interactive digital content, assessment tests as well as communication interfaces between educational actors, and open educational materials become accessible to all. Teachers can develop or customize intelligent content according to school curricula. In Romania, through the national CRED project, a free digital library with open educational resources for primary and secondary education was created, which makes video content available to teachers and students. This article presents the website „Fizica, gimnaziu” (physics, middle school), where you can find the resources developed for grades VI - VIII, as well as the creation of an interactive lesson through the Genially application. Using digital resources makes it easier to create personalized learning experiences for students. The use of technology in education could bring some benefits, such as: an engaging learning environment; interactive laboratories, experimental data processing, interactive assessment, address different learning styles; makes learning at your own pace possible.
