Abstract:
Because in the last years, it was observed a reduction in student interest in study, even at the fundamental disciplines and essential for their general culture, I tried to understand through the agency of a questionnaire, what dislike the students at the subject "Physics" and to identify the teaching and assessment methods and what resources are agreed for motivate them to prepare continuously throughout life, for active and responsible involve in their education and for participation at the school life. From the replies of the students, have emerged as the potential key factors which favouring the onset and the increase of the intrinsic motivation, following: using the computer, applying the active-creative teaching and assessment methods, accomplishing the research and the extracurricular activities. This paper aims to present this "tool" used for a statistical and practical approach of the results and a way of teaching and of assessment used in the modern physics lesson.
