Shifts in students’ responses to conceptual questions after a new physics conceptual worksheet: Preliminary findings
Conceptual understanding is one metric that has been historically valued in the assessment of physics-education-research-based instructional materials. Attending to COnceptual Resources iN (ACORN) Physics Tutorials are instructional materials that are based on research identifying common conceptual resources for understanding physics--good ideas or "seeds of science" which can be developed into more sophisticated scientific understandings. For this study, we used pre- and post-tests and classroom video to assess students' conceptual understanding as they completed an ACORN Physics Tutorial about electric circuits. We present the preliminary results of our analysis in this paper; mainly, students more often answered the post-test questions correctly and relied on the resource current is responsive after the use of the ACORN Physics Circuits Tutorial.
