Abstract

High school physics textbooks often turn their attention to mathematical and physical aspects that highlight elements of symmetry in physical phenomena and laws, skipping the key role that asymmetry has had in recent and past physics discoveries. The contribution aims to highlight how the couples beauty = symmetry and symmetry = creativity are not always well matched. The didactic path was realized in the school years 2018–2019 and 2019–2020 with a group of 64 students.
