Obstacles to Teaching Science in Primary School and Strategies to Overcome Them

Abstract

A learning curve is an old tool recently used in physics education. The curve describes the relationship between the learning gained and the time invested in the learning process. This paper discusses the meaning of the learning curve in physics education and reviews the model of the learning curve and possible applications in physics education. It also discusses some factors influencing the learning curve, such as prior knowledge, motivation, and teaching strategies. Finally, the paper explores the concept of the learning curve in physics education, its significance, and its applications in teaching and learning.

Artificial Intelligence Helps Primary School Teachers to Plan and Execute Physics Classroom Experiments

“…Integrating AI support and guidance for physics teaching experiments may be a substantial financial obstacle for schools and educators due to initial deployment expenses (Kotsis, 2024). Obtaining essential technology, software, and training resources may be expensive, particularly for universities with restricted budgets (Kamat & Nasnodkar, 2019).…”

Integration of Artificial Intelligence in Science Teaching in Primary Education: Applications for Teachers

“…It is difficult to teach science to primary school kids because of the misconceptions that students have about scientific principles (Kotsis, 2024c). On the other hand, teachers may benefit significantly from the use of misconceptions as a resource (Kotsis, 2023a).…”
