In all three implementations benefits were found as measured by various conceptual and problem solving assessments. We conclude with a summary of what we have learned from the CPS approach, and offer some views on the current and future states of physics instruction....

However, when solving a more conceptual nuclear physics problem, there were no significant differences in the pre- and post-tests of the gifted students at the same grade level. These studies suggest that gifted junior high school students have comparable cognitive abilities to older students, but...
Conceptual problems概念问题 are sometimes resolved by a change in methodological presuppositions. Thus the problem-solving model allows for evolving standards of rationality. Progress is achieved within a domain when successive theories display increasing problem-solving问题解决effectiveness. Laudan劳丹...
As with any equation in physics, the Snell's Law equation is valued for its predictive ability. If any three of the four variables in the equation are known, the fourth variable can be predicted if appropriate problem-solving skills are employed. In this part of Lesson 2, we will investiga...
Intelligent tutoring system (ITS) provides learners with step-by-step problem-solving support through scaffolding. Most ITSs have been developed in the USA
Currently, Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training is implementing significant reforms in national general education. One of the main goals of new general education curriculum is to develop students’ capacity. This paper presents findings of the research on the development of problem-solving ca...
Much research in engineering and physics education has focused on improving students' problem-solving skills. This research has led to the development of step-by-step problem-solving strategies and grading rubrics to assess a student's expertise in solving problems using these strategies. These rubric...
