METHODSFORM OFCLASSES

As a result of successfully completing this course, students will be familiar with modern methods of research in the field of solid state physics, optics and physics of atoms and molecules and should understand research limitations.

K2A_W01K2A_W03k2A_W04

Intro quiz or test.

Parts of the report from measurements (theory, measurement procedure, conclusions)

Lab

Furthermore student should know the safety rules in science experiments. Moreover student has the ability to plan complex physics experiments including different methods of measurement.

K2A_W07K2A_U02

Supervision of student work at the experimental station, and one of the elements to check the preparation for the measurement (question about the measurement procedure).

K2A_W5K2A_U04K2A_U12

Execution of measurements according to the teacher’s guidance, which constitute a modification of the standard exercise. Analysisand presentation of the results of measurements inthe report.

Lab

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA:To pass the laboratory the student should make a reasonable number of exercises in order to get a total of 7.5points, with the following scores for the exercise:

1,2,3,6 – 1.0 points,

4,7,8,9 – 1.25 points,

5,11,13,14 – 1.5 points,

10,12 – 2.0 points.

The experiments will be conducted in groups of two students. Each student should submit his/her own report.The lab grade consists of two parts: the lab pre-quiz is worth 25% and the lab report is worth 75% of the gradefor each lab.

Pre-quiz: Students are expected to prepare for lab by reading the appropriate literature in advance of their lab.The pre-quiz will be taken at the beginning of each lab session and will consist of several questions onmaterial covered in the lab manual.

Lab report: The lab report is a summary of what the student has observed and understood during the lab.Although you will work in twos in the lab, lab reports are to be done individually.

The format is as follows:

Introduction: Briefly give a general overview of the experiment, your expectations (a hypothesis) and thetheory behind it. Summarize the main point of doing the lab. Your introduction should be about a 2 pages long.

Results: Present the data in the form of a table or a graph. Usually you will give details of what you observedin the lab. Show any calculations carried out etc. Remember to include units.

Discussion/Conclusion: Discuss in your own words and from your point of view your results.

Example: Looking at your results, tables or graph, can you see any general trend? What is the behaviour of the graph/line? What was the aim of the experiment? Have we achieved anything? If not, how large is the

8

error? Does your result make sense? Can you compare your result to those from the books? What does the book say?

Lab reports are due one week after completion of the last measurement in the experiment.

During the last 3 weeks of the semester the students will have the option to do an extra lab to replace theworst grade and/or to run a make-up lab. At this time, any student who missed a lab, regardless if the absencewas excused or unexcused, can make up one lab.

STUDENT WORKLOAD:- Participation in classes: 15 weeks x 7 hours. = 105 hours.

- Preparation for classes: 5 x 6 = 30 hours.

- Specialized literature-reading: 12 x 5 = 60 hours.

- Analysis of performed exercises and writing reports: 6 x 10 = 60 hours.

- Participating in consultations: 10 hours.

Total: 265 hours, 12 ECTS.

Effort associated with activities that require direct participation of teachers: 115 hours, 5,2 ECTS.

RECOMMENDED READING:[1] Each task has its own list of references. The instructor helps the student to choose the most appropriate position, or suggest other items.

COURSE AIM:The presentation of the fundamental problems in the philosophy of nature with an emphasis onthe philosophical assumptions and problems present in the natural sciences.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:No prerequisites

COURSE CONTENTS:[1] An overview of the methods of and currents within the philosophy of nature (FN)

Currents: (a) traditional approaches (philosophy-oriented): FN as autonomous to metaphysics; FN aspart of metaphysics; (b) non-traditional approaches (science-oriented): FN as synthesis of the results of theparticular natural sciences; FN as an extrapolation and generalisation of the results of the particular naturalsciences; FN as philosophy in science; scientific FN as the discipline on the borderline between the ontology ofnature and philosophy of science.

Methods: (a) traditional approaches: considering FN as dependent on metaphysics; considering FN asindependent of metaphysics; (b) non-traditional approaches: logic-, history- and metodology-based analyses of:assumptions, hypotheses, laws, theories, language and methods used in science aimed at capturing andanalysis of the philosophical component of scientific theories.

[2] The birth of the philosophy of natureThe posing of questions: about a change, the beginning of nature, the structure of the universe and

giving specific answers to such questions by means of searching for regularities in nature and by explaining suchregularities by only referring to what is nowadays (commonly) known as „material reality”.

The conditions that had to occur for such questions to have been posed − the emergence of specifiedlanguage allowing such explanations.

Language and the cosmology it assumes.

[3] Philosophy of nature in the initial phase of development of sciencePhilosophy as a factor hindering the development of science − logical empirists on the non-sensicallity of

philosophyPhilosophy as a factor dynamising the development of science − metaphysical research projects

32

[4] Philosophy as an important part of science as suchNouvelle critique des sciences − the place of metaphysics in science, an external base of science;

relations between FN and metodology and the scientific viewpoint on the nature of reality; impact of the beliefson reality on the values accepted by scientists (e.g. simplicity, beauty, precision); changes in ontology andchanges in the language describing scientific theories; colloquial language as a non-reflexive and most generaltheory of reality; FN and moral attitutes of scientists; the impact of accepted PN on the descisions made byscientists; „good, scientific and empirical metaphysics”; metaphysical cores of scientific theories; quasi-metaphysical beliefs (ontological and heuristic models)

[5] Philosophy as the source of aprori and sine qua non conditions for scientificityDemarcation criteria and the „Laudan test” (question about accuracy; questions about precision − about

the necessary and sufficient condition; question about consequences); metodological decisions and the sine quanon conditions; the requirements for protecting and predicting of the events; foundationalism (requirements forseeking final justifications and ways of deducing of theories from the first causes) and fallibilism; methodologicalnaturalism and anti-naturalism; strong and weak sine qua non conditions of scientificity

[6] Methodological naturalism and the epistemic frames of reference Darwin's influence on the contemporary notion of science − vera causa and methodological naturalism;

methodological naturalism and anti-naturalism; epistemic frames as strong sine qua non conditions of scientificity

TEACHING METHODS:

Depending on circumstances, three forms of lecture will be used: informational, conversational andsynthetic. The first one is used to expose the students to the specific problems. The second one is used toengage the student to short discussion and question asking, especially when exposed to problems that are stillunclear. The third one is used to summarize the presented material and facilitate understanding of the keyconcepts.

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA:LECTURE: A course credit for the lectures is obtained by taking a final exam composed of tasks ofvarying degrees of difficulty.

CLASS: During the classes the preparation of the students will be checked as well as theirunderstanding of the lecture content at the time of the lectures.

To obtain a course credit for the exercises 50% of the maximum number of points will be required,which can be achieved through two cumulative tests. A student who achieves at least 10% of themaximum points and who does not exceed the class absence limit has the right to a resit test of theentire material before the examination date. The result of the exam is also affected by classparticipation and preparation for the class.

Entrance to the exam requires prior accreditation of the course exercises.
