This research investigated the effect of project-based learning (PjBL) on students' conceptual understanding of mechanics. For this purpose, a quasi-experimental research design was conducted with 50 ninth-grade students at Nazarbayev Intellectual School in Kazakhstan. We used the force concept inventory test to measure students' conceptual…

Yang, Jie; Zabriskie, Cabot; Stewart, John – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
Many studies have examined the structure and properties of the Force Concept Inventory (FCI); however, far less research has investigated the Force and Motion Conceptual Evaluation (FMCE). This study applied Multidimensional Item Response Theory (MIRT) to a sample of N = 4528 FMCE post-test responses. Exploratory factor analysis showed that 5, 9,…
