Specifically, it presents applications of MDETs for physics teaching and learning in four different teaching settings: I) several new experiments which illustrate the potential of MDETs for exploring physics in novel ways in a variety of real-life situations; II) a selection of experiments for usual laboratory sessions, highlighting the practicality and versatility of the approach; III) science communication and citizen science; IV) and undergraduate research projects. In these four settings, a wide variety of physics experiments were developed and tested, from classical to novel ones, and from simple to more elaborate ones: the standing vertical jump as an application of mechanics to sports; the modulation of the spectrum of the sizzling noise in a frying pan, based on the model of the Helmholtz resonator; analyzing sound in a daily life situation by Euler-Bernoulli beam theory; investigating the dynamics of the "Euler disk" with its finite time singularity using acoustical and mechanical data (setting I); inclined plane; parabolic motion; pendulum; sound frequency (musical instruments); noise level and 1/<i>r^</i>2-behaviour of point sources; atmospheric pressure; thermal mixing and IR transparency (setting II and III); car breaking distance; motion in a flight simulator; parabolic flight; Earth radius; bottle Helmholtz resonator; singing glasses (setting IV).
