Why is it important?

By placing students in a position of research and action, this unique experience enabled them to consolidate and develop the skills associated with a scientific approach: experimental practice, analysis and synthesis of scientific documents and resolution of scientific problems.

Perspectives

The author would like to thank Sabrina and Sammy, the two students who performed the measures in the framework of their experimental project ‘La physique au bout du fil’ which was distinguished at the French physics Olympiads in 2012 .
