Professor at the University of Wroclaw (Poland) David Blaschke is teaching Physics of Graphene as a guest lecturer as part of the “Quanta” Master’s Degree Program in Quantum and Mesoscopic Physics.
“When I received the invitation to teach through this Program, I gladly accepted it. It is important to not only have contacts with sector-specific specialists, but also enhance ideas for the future together,” David Blaschke said.
The professor is author of several studies related to the Physics of Graphene. Through this Program, his major goal is to make the Physics of Graphene more comprehensible and interesting for the students.
“Explaining everything to the students in one week is challenging. You need to be sure that they are learning all that you present to them. I try to draw the learners’ attention with my thoughts and ideas so that they perceive everything,” the lecturer stated.
David Blaschke says it is necessary to drive students to real research topics where questions remain unanswered and where the answers to those questions are still in the stage of formulation.
“There can be progress when there are questions. If I can teach the students to ask questions, then my work is done, meaning I have made sure they are quite familiar with the topic so that they can become orientated,” he said.
The professor established ties with Armenia back in the 1980s. Since, then, he has collaborated with professors of Yerevan State University, Armenian scientists and physicists, particularly physicists Davit Sedrakyan and Edward Chubaryan.
