Experiments related to the existence and the characteristics of atmospheric pressure are among the most important ones in the history of physics. As many old-time scientists had wrong explanations of phenomena related to atmospheric pressure, there is no wonder that today’s pupils and students reveal similar conceptual difficulties and ideas (for example, the conception of acting vacuum). Classroom demonstrations dealing with air pressure are actually very present in Google documents and in YouTube videos. Critical-minded and creative physics teachers might use them to help students overcome mentioned conceptual difficulties. The aim of this small-scale and qualitative exploration study was to find out which experiments and demonstrations, ...
