Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to point out an interactive method to introduce basic physics concepts to youngest students. We will emphasize the way one can use modern methods such as GPS localization, educational software and geographic maps, in order to lure students into developing experimental skills. We will focus upon the advantages of this kind of approach. Finding out about and understanding typical mathematical concepts, terminology and calculations.
