An Investigation of +2 Level Students? Concepts of Magnetism
S. V. Sharma
Abstract: Present study entitled An Investigation of +2 Level Students Concepts of Magnetism was administered over the students of +2 level learning concepts of magnetism. At the very outset, this study is a pilot study. Research tool was developed in workshop mode comprises of conceptual multiple choice questions. To ensure the validity and reliability of the test each item was scrutinized in a brainstorming session of experts. The test was administered on plus two students of schools having well equipped facilities and devoted staffs dealing with physics education. Comprehensive analysis of the responses given by the students indicates a significant gap between the learning outcomes as expected from the curriculum given to the students and their real learning. It is suggested that a carefully planed instructions taking into consideration students alternative frameworks may help to improve the state of affairs.
