Physics as a subject matter in primary education teacher students' training: Possibilities for elimination of misconceptions

Rochovská, Ivana, 1983- Physics as a subject matter in primary education teacher students' training: Possibilities for elimination of misconceptions / Ivana Rochovská, Martin Droščák ... [et al.]. -- The research focused on the issue of physics subject matter in higher education of primary education teachers. It explained students’ misconceptions on an example of the subject matter about a pulley. The aim of the research was to study on a sample of 79 students the effectiveness of the designed IBI in terms of elimination of misconceptions in favour of scientifically acceptable concepts. The main research methods were the pedagogical experiment and content analysis of students’ answers. Results showed that students’ misconceptions changed statistically significantly in the post-test against the pre-test in favour of scientifically acceptable concepts. Thus, the research results may be an incentive for branch didactics of science subjects.
