Gorazd Planinsic is a Professor of Physics at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. He has a PhD in physics from the University of Ljubljana. Since 2000, he has led the Physics Education program, which prepares almost all high school physics teachers in the country of Slovenia. He started his career in MRI physics and later switched to physics education research. During the last 10 years, his work has mostly focused on the research of new experiments and how to use them more productively in teaching and learning physics. He is co-founder of the Slovenian hands-on science center House of Experiments. Professor Planinsic is co-author of more than 80 peer-refereed research articles and more than 20 popular science articles, a co-author of "College Physics: Explore and Apply and the Active Learning Guide", and the author of a Slovenian university textbook for future physics teachers. He is a recipient of a GIREP medal for his contributions in Physics Education and a fellow of the IOP.
