Learning outcomes
At the end of the course, the student will know major protagonists, experiments and events which characterized the development of ideas and historiographical methods in the history of physics.
Besides, she/he will be able to identify the opportunities, issues and methodologies which concern the use of the history of physics in teaching
Course contents
The course will discuss the interplay between theory and experiment in the first modern age. By focusing on the figure of Galileo Galilei, his scientific writings and the results achieved within the field of the history and epistemology of physics, the course will present the major typologies of experiments introduced by Galileo and will discuss the role of theoretical reasoning for their conduction.
Galilean experiments will be moreover discussed in terms of their replicability in the classroom by putting into light the analogies and differences between the historical instruments used by the scientist and modern apparatuses used in nowadays school laboratories
