Kulgemeyer, Christoph; Wittwer, Jörg – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Some of the online explainer videos for physics present misconceptions as scientifically correct explanations. Even so, some of these videos achieve good ratings on online platforms. A possible reason is that explainer videos with misconceptions foster an "illusion of understanding"--the mistaken belief that a topic has been understood.…

Bestari, L. F.; Sarwanto; Pujayanto; Syam, W. P.; Harjunowibowo, D. – Physics Education, 2022
Light spectrum dispersion is an exciting subject in science because of its beautiful atmospheric colour phenomenon which attracts students. However, to see the phenomenon is not easy since it needs a spectrometer, which is commonly expensive. Therefore, the present study aims to describe a low-cost spectrometer for investigating lighting spectrum…

Morales, Gerson; Perkins, James; Pomfrey, Herb; Ruiz, Michael J. – Physics Education, 2019
Pinhole camera photography is explored using a set of entomology pins due to their known pin diameters and availability in a variety of sizes. A procedure to prepare removable-lens digital cameras for pinhole photography is described. A video is included showing a set of ten insect pins and how to fit the camera with pinhole apertures. Formulas…

Mihalca, Loredana; Mengelkamp, Christoph – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Both accurate monitoring and adequate control are crucial for effective self-regulation when learning from problem-solving tasks. Prior research has shown that self-regulated learning is especially harmful for low prior knowledge students, given their difficulties with accurate monitoring and control decisions. Although many studies have indicated…

Morphew, Jason W.; Gladding, Gary E.; Mestre, Jose P. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
Students must actively engage in problem solving to effectively learn in introductory physics courses. However, students often get stuck and are not able to make progress when solving problems outside of their current ability, particularly when one-on-one tutoring and instructor office hours are a limited resource. One effective technique consists…

Hergemöller, Timo; Laumann, Daniel – Physics Teacher, 2017
Today smartphones and tablets do not merely pervade our daily life, but also play a major role in STEM education in general, and in experimental investigations in particular. Enabling teachers and students to make use of these new techniques in physics lessons requires supplying capable and affordable applications. Our article presents the…

Kelly, Resa M.; Akaygun, Sevil; Hansen, Sarah J. R.; Villalta-Cerdas, Adrian – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2017
In this qualitative study, we examined how a group of seventeen first semester General Chemistry students responded when they were shown contrasting molecular animations of a reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction between solid copper and aqueous silver nitrate for which they first viewed a video of the actual experiment. The animations contrasted…

Lundström, Mats – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2013
In this article the possibilities to use video diaries as data collection tool in studies about scientific literacy are discussed. The starting point is a need for students to develop scientific knowledge which they can use as citizens in different situations. I argue that with this definition the students' scientific literacy (SL) must be…

Johnson, Nathan; Chuter, Vivienne; Rooney, Kieron – Advances in Physiology Education, 2013
Learning clinical skills presents a novel experience for undergraduate students, particularly when it comes to preparing for skill assessment. Compared with the thousands of hours of practice believed to be necessary for the development of motor skill expertise (1), these students have significantly limited exposure time. Furthermore, effective…
