Kosmaca, Jelena; Siiman, Leo A. – Physics Education, 2023
Online video experiments are a promising educational technology tool for science laboratory classes. In order to find optimal instructional designs and scenarios for using online video experiments, we need to study learners' experiences. This work describes implementation of an online interactive video experiment at the undergraduate introductory…

Thacker, Beth – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Instructional labs: Improving traditions and new directions.] This paper presents a historical analysis of the development, implementation, research, and assessment of an evidence-based introductory algebra-based physics course. The course is laboratory based and taught with an inquiry-based…

Mihret, Zemenu; Alemu, Mekbib; Assefa, Shimeles – Pedagogical Research, 2023
The objective of this study was to examine the effectiveness of blended physics laboratory experimentation on pre-service physics teachers' (PSPTs') understanding of the nature of science (NOS) during an electricity and magnetism laboratory course. The study used a non-equivalent comparison group using a pre-test-post-test quasi-experimental…

Wong, Wing-Kwong; Chen, Kai-Ping; Lin, Jia-Wei – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2020
The results of PISA 2015 indicate that Taiwanese students have excellent mathematical and scientific knowledge but are weak in applying such knowledge and in conducting practical experiments in the laboratory. To support students conducting practical experiments in physics laboratories, a real-time data logging system and an online tool for…

Moosvi, Firas; Reinsberg, Stefan A.; Rieger, Georg W. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2019
In this article, we examine whether an inquiry-based, hands-on physics lab can be delivered effectively as a distance lab. In science and engineering, hands-on distance labs are rare and open-ended project labs in physics have not been reported in the literature. Our introductory physics lab at a large Canadian research university features…

Yuruk, Nejla; Beeth, Michael E.; Andersen, Christopher – Research in Science Education, 2009
This study investigated the effect of metaconceptual teaching interventions on students' understanding of force and motion concepts. A multimethod research design including quasi-experimental design and case study designs was employed to compare the effect of the metaconceptual activities and traditional instruction and investigate students'…
