An investigation on student's conceptual understanding of newton's third law - force in equilibrium and attitudes in physics using EquiForce Kit with STAD cooperative learning
The purposes of present study were to (I) investigate the effects of incorporating a manipulative material - 'EquiForce Kit' (EFK) in a Student Team-Achievement Division (STAD) classroom; and to (ii) examine students' attitudes toward Physics using EFK. A total of 77 students who t...

| 總結: | The purposes of present study were to (I) investigate the effects of incorporating a
manipulative material - 'EquiForce Kit' (EFK) in a Student Team-Achievement Division
(STAD) classroom; and to (ii) examine students' attitudes toward Physics using EFK. A
total of 77 students who take Physics subject In two secondary schools around
Penampang and Kolombong district in Sabah were assigned into STAD (control group)
and STAD-EFK (treatment group). Force in Equilibrium Concept Test (FECT) and
Attitudes in Physics were used to collect data. The data was then analyzed using
independent and paired sample t-test with SPSS 16.0. The finding indeed showed better
improvement of conceptual understanding of Force in Equilibrium in STAD-EFK group
than in STAD group, but the changes were not significant. Besides, the attitudes survey
also indicated no significant difference in pre- and post-test of STAD-EFK group. |
