Heureka project concentrates mainly on physics education for age group 12-18, but it also aims to cultivate both teaching of physics as such and interactions of teachers and pupils. It puts together teachers from different types of schools, future teachers, people from universities and other people interested in physics education.
In recent years a common event connecting various branches of the project takes place once a year. It has the form of a set of workshops prepared and led by the participants themselves.
The whole event is very active and according to guests from abroad who attended it, its character is in a sense unique even in comparison with teachers’ conferences and meetings in other countries. The paper describes the nature of the "Heureka Workshops" meetings, present the range of topics of workshops, show some examples and discuss why we perceive this kind of meeting as important, useful and inspiring.
