Overcoming students’ misconceptions concerning thermal physics with the aid of hints and peer interaction during a lecture course
As has been shown by previous research, students may possess various misconceptions in the area of thermal physics. In order to help them overcome misconceptions observed prior to instruction, we implemented a one-hour lecture-based intervention in their introductory thermal physics course. The inte...
