Different levels of physics problems and physics problem solving
Problem solving is one of the areas physics education research (PER) focuses on. Before I look at the aspects of physics problem solving that PER has reported, I would like to put down my thoughts on physics problems after being a physics learner and now a physics educator for 10+ years. Physics problems can be…
Student misconceptions about work and energy
Continuing the series of student misconceptions that have been reported by the physics education research community, this post is about work and energy. Energy is an abstract concept. It cannot be seen, but the effect can be observed in everyday life. It is an idea that is readily accepted when one is first introduced to…
Student misconceptions on forces and motion
Today I continue to put down the student misconceptions on forces and motion as reported from physics education research. Every physics teacher will encounter the misconceptions every time when they teach force and motion. It is inevitable because of the “mismatch” of what was taught with the daily life experience. However, there is actually no…
