@level98edu @rjallain @veritasium You can find a comprehensive list of the model's strengths & weaknesses in a paper @SpringerEdu I wrote together with @RolfSteier. We also present empirical evidence on how students use the rubber sheet to reason about
@Cosmic_Horizons @SciencePetr Which is why it's so important to create awareness of the limitations of scientific analogies in our students. I wrote a research paper tackling exactly this challenge and talking about common misconceptions that the rubber sh

Great work, @MagdaKersting! 👏 👏
New paper out: Understanding Curved #Spacetime 🌟 No man can visualise four dimensions. That's what @AlbertEinstein said. We study how #physics students conceptualise the abstract in terms of the physical to make sense of relativity. 🤓 #ScienceEducation htt
