Lan Yang; Leheng Huang; Xianqiu Wu; Jianwen Xiong; Lei Bao; Yang Xiao – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
In physics education, a number of studies have developed assessments of teachers' knowledge of student understanding (KSU) of specific physics concepts with modified versions of existing concept inventories, in which teachers were asked to predict the popular incorrect answers from students. The results provide useful but indirect information to…

Achmad Samsudin; Aldi Zulfikar; Duden Saepuzaman; Andi Suhandi; Adam Hadiana Aminudin; Supriyadi Supriyadi; Bayram Costu – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2024
This study aims to reconstruct Grade 11 students' misconceptions about force through the Conceptual Change Model (CCM) making use of Predict, Discuss, Explain, Observe, Discuss, Explore, Explain (PDEODEE) tasks. This study was conducted using a mixedmethod approach. The participants in this study were 65 students (33 students in the experiment…

Examining the Physics Conceptions, Science Engagement and Misconceptions of Undergraduate Students in STEM
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Bahtaji, Michael Allan A. – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2023
Exploring students' physics conceptions, science engagement and misconceptions in physics together with their association to certain variables (gender, educational background, and program of study) are essential in improving physics teaching and learning. However, few studies have been conducted to explore these three measures and almost none…

Gender Equality in Five- to Six-Year-Old Preschoolers' Early Competences in Science Do Not Protect Schoolgirls from Gender Stereotypes
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Romero-Abrio, Ana; Ramos-Alonso, Raquel; Hurtado-Bermúdez, Santiago – European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, 2021
Science competencies acquired at early years are basic and influence on children's later development. Gender differences in these early science competencies may explain the often-reported gender differences in later science abilities. Research in this field was not usually focused on pre-schoolers. In this study, we focus on the interaction…

Jordanian Pre-Service Physics Teacher's Misconceptions about Force and Motion
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Al-Rsa'i, Mohammad S.; Khoshman, Jebreel M.; Abu Tayeh, Khalid – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2020
The objective of this study was to investigate the physics student-teachers misconceptions in force and motion concepts in Jordanian universities by using the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) test and to identify the cause of misconceptions related to these concepts. Also, the FCI has been used to detect whether misconceptions vary according to…

Conceptual Understanding of Newtonian Mechanics among Afghan Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Hairan, Abdul Manan; Abdullah, Nazlinda; Husin, Abu Hassan – European Journal of Physics Education, 2019
In this paper, the level of conceptual understanding of Newtonian mechanics among Afghan school and university students in Kabul, Afghanistan was investigated. This study employed a quantitative descriptive survey method where the Pashto version of the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) was given to a random sample of 216 students from two schools and…
