Abstract: | This paper presents an evaluation of the Physics course at Dickson College (ACT). It highlights students' expectations before
the course, and their impressions and feelings during the course. This is the second evaluation carried out as part of a long
term study of student attitudes before and after the introduction of a more ‘conceptual’ approach to the teaching of physics
at this college. Overall, this approach has produced a more positive attitude in all students, but more significantly in girls.
Specializations: senior physics, chemistry and biology. |
