Résumé: | This study investigates the effect of using the history of science in teaching
geometrical optics on the motivation and conceptual understanding of first year
university students. For this purpose, 54 students were randomly selected, then
divided into two groups: the experimental group was taught by using history of
science before traditional geometrical optics teaching, and the control group was
taught by traditional method only. Data were collected using two instruments:
Geometrical Optics Understanding Concept Test and Geometrical Optics Intrinsic
Motivation Scale. The finding showed that before instruction, the students have
important and prevalent misconceptions about vision, propagation of light and refraction. After teaching of geometrical optics, the study shows that using the
history of science shows greater effect on intrinsic motivation and concept
understanding. The results have some implications for teaching physics, especially
when the traditional teaching is inevitable |
