Through STEAM education, this action research aims to improve senior high school students' ability to think critically and learn effectively. The target group for this study consisted of 36 senior high school students from one school in Thailand. A STEAM education lesson plan, a test of productive thinking, and a test of learning achievement were…

Mataram City, West Nusa Tenggara Province, has started a transitional period, including in the world of education. The transition to the new normal requires adjusting the learning process to prepare students to learn normally. This study aims to describe students' physics learning outcomes using a blended learning model. This research is a type of…

In the wake of increasing evidence that students' positive attitudes towards science particularly in chemistry and physics change strikingly as they move up in school, this study explores student perception of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that make them feel cognitive load in learning physics, chemistry and biology resulting in difficulty to…

A.V. Usova (1921-2014) has always been one of the leading figures in Russian physics education. Her theory of physics concept formation was formulated during the 1970s and the 1980s and directly influenced the process of physics education in the 20th and the 21st century. Over the years there have been a lot of theories of concept formation. Her…

This study aimed at developing a module in physics based on the assessment of the learning progression of students in physics and science teachers' formative assessment practices. The participants in this study were the Grade 11 students and Junior High School science teachers for the data gathering, science teachers for the design and development…

Researches carried out all around the world showed that students learn more effectively if they are able to make connections between subjects. This case reports based on an investigation of how mathematics concepts were connected to science concepts by a science teacher in an elementary science classroom, and on the science teacher's views about…

Learning occurs through various processes. Among these processes, conceptual change has a pivotal part. This article discusses briefly conceptual change in physics. Anchoring on Kuhn's original explanation of theory change in science, this article elaborates especially on the influence of children's science concepts in general, and pre-conceptions…

This study aims to report the effort on teaching vector algebra using free open source software (FOSS). Recent studies showed that students have difficulties in learning basic physics concepts. Constructivist learning theories suggest the use of visual and hands-on activities in learning. We will report on the software used for this purpose. The…

This study provides a comparative effect study of the Computer Assisted Teaching and the 7E model of the Constructivist Learning methods on attitudes and achievements of the students in physics classes. The experiments have been carried out in a private high school in Diyarbakir/Turkey on groups of first year students whose pre-test scores of…
