Tong Tong; Feipeng Pi; Siyan Zheng; Yi Zhong; Xiaochun Lin; Yajun Wei – Research in Science Education, 2025
Students' success in physics problem-solving extends beyond conceptual knowledge of physics, relying significantly on their mathematics skills. Understanding the specific contributions of different mathematics skills to physics problem-solving can offer valuable insights for enhancing physics education. Yet such studies are rare, particularly at…

Wancham, Kittitas; Tangdhanakanond, Kamonwan – Research in Science Education, 2022
This study aimed to investigate the effects of feedback types and opportunities to change answers on the learners' achievement and their ability to solve physics problems. We compared three feedback types, namely (1) static feedback with hints, (2) reducing feedback with hints, and (3) knowledge of response, and two types of opportunities to…

Devetak, Iztok; Vogrinc, Janez; Glazar, Sasa Aleksij – Research in Science Education, 2009
Submicrorepresentations (SMR) could be an important element, not only for explaining the experimental observations to students, but also in the process of evaluating students' knowledge and identifying their chemical misconceptions. This study investigated the level of students' understanding of the solution concentration and the process of…
