There is now a significant body of literature documenting misconceptions harbored by science students which are quite widespread and which are surprisingly resistant to change during instruction. For many students, such misconceptions are critical barriers which prevent the attainment of conceptual understanding. This project will investigate some promising strategies for overcoming misconceptions in high school physics courses. The project will: (1) conduct research on students' misconceptions and potentially useful physical intuitions; (2) develop innovative lessons for dealing with several specific misconceptions in mechanics; (3) evaluate their effectiveness in high school classrooms; (4) conduct tutoring experiments in order to study student learning processes in detail and to compare alternative teaching methods; (5) formulate general principles of instruction for dealing with misconceptions in physics with possible applications to other areas of science and mathematics. Research that leads to such principles for instruction is seen as essential for guiding the national development of effective new course materials and software for students and teachers. The project will be carried out by a team of high school teachers and researchers who have worked together to produce innovative lessons and research studies. Thus, the project will be working directly at the interface between the science education research community and the classroom.

现在有大量的文献记载 科学专业学生所持有的错误观念， 广泛传播，令人惊讶的是， 指导。 对许多学生来说，这样的误解是至关重要的 阻碍实现概念性目标的障碍 认识 这个项目将调查一些有前途的 克服高中物理中错误概念的策略 课程 该项目将：（1）研究学生的 误解和潜在有用的物理直觉;（2） 制定创新的经验教训， 力学中的误解;（3）评估其有效性， 高中课堂;（4）按顺序进行辅导实验 详细研究学生的学习过程， （5）制定教学的一般原则; 处理物理学中的错误概念的指导， 可能应用于其他科学和数学领域。 导致这些教学原则的研究被视为 对于指导国家发展有效的新能源至关重要 为学生和教师提供课程材料和软件。 的 该项目将由一个高中教师小组进行， 研究者们共同努力， 课程和研究。 因此，该项目将在 直接在科学教育研究 社区和教室。
