ABSTRACT
In 2020, due to the restrictions imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, the education system passed a fundamental change. Both students and teachers had to acquire new skills in a world with access to a multitude of written or audio-visual information. The role of the teacher in the education process has changed. As his central role diminished, the teacher assumed the position of mentor. This position is reflected in the integration in lessons of modern learning methods that teach the student to use the information he can find from the comfort of his home. The paper presents the neuron, as a cell of the nervous system, an interdisciplinary subject, through interactive concept maps. The conceptual map is realized on two levels, on the first level being presented the nervous system, and on the second level the physical quantities characteristic of the nerve cell membrane and the calculation of their values. The electrostatics and electrokinetics of the nerve cell membrane and its equivalent wiring diagram are presented. By using interactive concept maps, the teacher can present the essential concepts punctually, being necessary to understand them in order to solve new situations in disciplines related to physics. The presentation in Microsoft Office Power Point 365, introduced in the concept map, contains a 3D model of the neuron from its own library of 3D models and has hyperlinks to a video from an online source and to the educational site Mozaweb with interactive 3D content adapted to home learning through maths and information technology. © 2021, National Defence University - Carol I Printing House.
