Affordances of engagement strategies in chemistry : learning the periodic table
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2022)This study examined the impact of music, context-based inquiry and computer simulation as engagement strategies to determine the affordances of the engagement strategies in chemistry which could be realised by determining ... -
Educators' approaches to physics practical work
(North-West University, 2005)Research in physics education has indicated that physics practical work is based heavily on recipe-following, with little attention being paid to the teaching and learning of skills (Johnstone & Letton. 1990:11, Johnstone ... -
Effective teaching of energy in mechanics
(North-West University, 2008)Science learners come to class with pre-instructional ideas that may influence the acquisition of science concepts. A basic assumption of the constructivist learning theory is that these pre-instructional ideas should be ... -
The effectiveness of applying conceptual development teaching strategies to Newton's second law of motion
(2014)School science education prepares learners to study science at a higher level, prepares them to follow a career in science and to become scientific literate citizens. It is the responsibility of the educator to ensure the ... -

Grade 11 learners' alternative conceptions on the states of matter and phase changes
(North-West University, 2006)States of matter and phase changes are important topics in the teaching and learning of physical science. It is a common fact that learners find it difficult to understand the states of matter and phase changes. One of ... -
Learning conservation of matter in phase changes
(North-West University, 2009)Learners regard Chemistry as one of their most difficult courses at secondary and undergraduate levels, because they have to link several modes of representing matter and their interactions. Phase changes are one of the ...
