학생들이 물리를 재미없고 어렵다고 생각하는 이유에 대한 분석

초록

The purpose of this study was to explore secondary students'perception about science, especially physics. Students' ideas weregathered using a questionnaire that contained four parallelsections, each of which had two items. The first item asked studentsto select the most interesting/uninteresting/easy/difficult subjectin science. This was followed by an open-form item in which studentswere asked to give the reason they felt that way. The questionnairewas completed by 532 students (aged 15-18). The responses to thequestionnaire showed that physics was perceived as most'uninteresting' and `difficult' subject. The major reason forthinking of physics as `uninteresting' was their perception of it asdifficult. In addition, the major reason for perceiving physics as`difficult' was the mathematical aspect of physics. On the otherhand, some students found physics to be easy because of themathematical aspect. `Electromagnetism' was reported as the most`difficult' topic by most students. Based on the results, we discussimplications, such as the mathematical aspect of physics.
