Abstract :

One of the main natural science education aims is the integral perception of the phenomena occurring in nature. Therefore, teachers have to be able to find and convey the pupils the links between separate natural sciences. For this, it is necessary to specially organise the teaching process itself, to prepare the teaching material. First of all, the material has to be distinguished which reflects interdisciplinary links, to choose the teaching forms, methods and ways. In the renewed natural science general programme, seeking to bring secondary education nearer to present day requirements and to improve pupils’ learning motivation, one of the most rapidly spreading science fields in the world – nanotechnology – is included. To what extent and how deep to analyse nanotechnologies, decides the teacher himself. Therefore, it is necessary for the teacher to be prepared to work in the constantly changing teaching environment, to be able to realise the newest interdisciplinary didactic principles, to use information communication technologies. By giving a sample lesson, natural science (physics, chemistry, biology) informatics and mathematics subject relation realisation didactic possibilities are revealed in the article. A sample scenario of the lesson Nanotechnologies: we produce a fullerene model, is presented. The lesson course is described, the tasks, integrating natural sciences, information technologies and mathematics are presented, extra tasks and the tasks for homework are foreseen.
