Abstract

In this paper, we aim to show our conclusions as a result of an educational experience in the classroom working with students both in secondary compulsory and non-compulsory education, for the last three years. We have tried to bring the methods of the subjects 'Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics' closer to the students' daily reality.
For this reason, we suggest them to do quantitative measures of things which are closer to the students' life and experiences (OPEN QUESTIONS). In this way, these subjects are useful for them, because they feel they can apply what they have learnt.
