INTRODUCTION

Often, science can be challenging for students to


learn. It is difficult for teachers to capture students’
attention using traditional physics teaching methods.

Therefore, teachers may adopt advanced creative


methods to teach physics to their students. New
strategies can make physics topics more interesting
and easier to understand.

WHY A DIFFERENT
APPROACH TO PHYSICS
INSTRUCTION?
Research shows that after
conventional instruction, students
could not fully explain even the
simplest of physics concepts, even
though many could work related
problems.
WHAT DO STUDENTS SEE AS
IMPORTANT IN A TRADITIONAL
CLASSROOM?

 Equations
 Similar steps in solving
problems
 Numerical answers

But where’s the physics


understanding?
MODELS ARE IMPORTANT 8

IN PHYSICS

Making Thinking Visible

Representations and models are not meant


to be exact copies. Instead, they are
deliberate simplifications of more complex
systems.
PROBLEMS RATHER
THAN MODELS?
The problem with problem-solving
• Students come to see problems and their
answers as the units of knowledge.
• Students fail to see common elements in
unusual problems.

» “But we never did


a problem like
this!”
HOW DOES THE MODELING METHOD
FOSTER STUDENT UNDERSTANDING?

• Students design their own experimental


procedures.

• Students must justify their interpretations of data


in teacher-guided Socratic dialogs.

• Models created from experimental interpretations


are deployed in carefully selected problems, each
of which is designed to illustrate aspects of the
model.

• Solutions are presented by students to the entire


class on whiteboards.

• Visualizes related concepts and how they affect each other.
