Abstract:
The contemporary world is in a big hurry, the scientific and technical conquests have known an unrecorded jump ahead, and the quantitative accumulation of information has created an incredible qualitative leap. In this world, where the communication doesn’t know any limits, the informal education and the nonformal education is more adapted than formal education. One solution can be a transdisciplinary onset to the curriculum. The transdisciplinarity is a principle for unity of knowledge beyond disciplines or subjects; it is an integrative form of teaching. Transdisciplinary education re-evaluates the role of intuition, imagination, sensibility and the body in the transmission of knowledge. The transdisciplinary approach in natural sciences and especially in physics generates for students profoundness of knowledge and understanding of the natural environment. The teaching can be taught in the class, in physics laboratory, in trips. And because the computer is a most important tool, and the audio-video tools have one important impact for the teaching/learning process, it is recommended to follow it. All the science phenomena that are interesting and can be attached with simulations, animation, and interactivity have a special interest for us. The simulations can face issues that are difficult to be treated by other ways because of their abstract character or because of their needs for animation that can be supplied by the outdoor trips. In this paper, an inter- and trans-disciplinary approach is presented one project of the unit by learning – the water in nature, broach in physics, chemistry, biology, physical geography.
