Astronomy and gravitation part 2

Module name: Astronomy and gravitation part 2
Module code: KN-F-S2-AiG-CZ2
Language of instruction: Polish
Form of verification: course work
ECTS credits: 1
Purpose and description of the content of education:
The module aims to deepen students' knowledge of classical and relativistic description of gravity and modern astronomy. Classes integrate theoretical content with practical didactic skills, developing competences necessary for teaching gravitational and astronomical issues at the third level of education. During the workshops, students will become familiar with: i) classical and modern theory of gravity; ii) issues related to the area of ​​classical astronomy and modern observational astronomy with elements of astrophysics and cosmology. The content implemented within the module is consistent with the current core curriculum applicable in secondary schools at basic and advanced levels.
List of modules that must be completed before starting this module (if necessary): not applicable
