Rollinde, Emmanuel; Decamp, Nicolas; Derniaux, Catherine – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
The experiment that we present in this paper explores the teaching of Galilean motion principles observed in different reference frames, in an astronomical context. All grade 10 students in a French high school (the lycĂ©e Condorcet, Val de Marne) participated in two successive teaching-learning sessions, designed within the theoretical framework…

Pili, Unofre; Violanda, Renante – Physics Education, 2019
This article considers a further experimental demonstration of the equations of projectile motion employing the popular video-based motion modeling tool called Tracker. Using a downloaded video--of a free throw attempt by the NBA star Lebron James--from YouTube.com, the primary equations of projectile motion, together with a number of projectile…

Lemmer, Miriam – Africa Education Review, 2018
Science teaching and learning require knowledge about how learning takes place (cognition) and how learners interact with their surroundings (affective and sociocultural factors). The study reported on focussed on learning for understanding of Newton's second law of motion from a cognitive perspective that takes social factors into account. A…
