In this study identifying the areas of difficulties in Learning and teaching physics - views of Undergraduate students, a questionnaire was administered to 120 (60 females and 40 males) undergraduate students in physics class and 10 physics Lecturers'. Purposively drawing from Kabul Education University, Parwan and Bamyan universities these universities located in Kabul, Parwan, and Bamyan cities. The major finding shows source of difficulty in Learning and Teaching physics as related: To some concepts of physics and curriculum, students were found to have difficulty understanding specific topics in the physics of Electromagnetic, views concepts that are usually characterized as lacking concrete examples and requiring a lot of mathematical manipulations or visualization many also found difficulty the task of solving problems the physics subjects. The finding has implications for designing interventions and identifying pedagogical techniques that help students overcome the underlying source of difficulties that impede quality learning and teaching physics. The difficulties of self-learning and lack of motivation of students are also highlighted.

Our long-term Heureka project is based on the principle of active work in learning and teaching — both at school with students and in teacher training. Teachers in our seminars work the same way as students at schools — solving the same problems, doing the same experiments and sometimes even making the same mistakes. Our seminars provide longterm systematic training — the cycle of seminars for new participants takes ten weekends during the course of two years. That gives all participants the possibility and especially the time to change their approach to teaching physics. The character of our seminars is rather informal: the seminars are free of charge and teachers join Heureka on a voluntary basis, gaining no formal advantages or benefits at their schools. The seminars take place during weekends, with teachers staying (and sleeping) in classrooms. In the autumn of 2012, we started already the 6th seminar cycle. Over the years, we have built a network of about 150 active teachers who have the possibility to meet at various advanced seminars and at “The Heureka Workshops” annual conference. The conference regularly attracts more than 100 participants and includes international guests. We are convinced that our experience could be interesting and inspiring for other people working in physics education in different countries.

<em>Lesson activity has a very important role in teaching Physics. Curriculum gives specific viewpoints about the frameworks of planning lesson activities. In each country, being familiar with these frameworks helps to conduct teachers to be self-planners for teaching process. This article is an experiment of studying the frameworks of the U.S. in the subject of teaching science and is a sample to show how a teacher can get involved in international projects to boost the skill of planning activities related national problems and goals. It can open a horizon of thinking about the putting together national and international goals and frameworks in learning and teaching physics in local.</em>
