Modelling and Assessing Experimental Competencies in Physics

“…Al evaluar las alternativas de instrumentos que correspondan con la pregunta se optó por usar cuestionarios, pruebas específicas y entrevistas (Halkier, 2010). Para el diseño de los cuestionarios se propusieron 24 aspectos que fueron agrupados en cinco categorías, cuatro de ellas planteadas por el modelo SLEI (Science Laboratory Environment Inventory) Theyßen et al (2014) que apuntan a examinar aspectos relacionados con conocimientos científicos, tecnológicos y aquellos propios del proceso de diseño del artefacto y una categoría adicional que vincula la Formación de Maestros para el Área de Tecnología e Informática (FMATI). Estas preguntas favorecen la recopilación de información Cuanti.…”

“…Con el cálculo de la medida de Alfa de Crombach se obtuvo información que permitió un análisis descriptivo de la información. Adicional a este proceso, acorde con lo sugerido por Theyßen et al (2014), se requiere de un análisis de correlación de los datos para procesos relacionados con las competencias. Para apoyar este análisis se empleó el software HUDAP (Hebrew University Data Analysis Package).…”

Investigating the trends of developing students’ experimental competency through inquiry-based laboratory approach: A systematic literature review

“…Experimental competency means to describe some of the most important procedures, processes, and methods that scientists use when constructing knowledge and solving experimental problems (Etkina et al, 2006). According to Theyßen H et al (2014), modeling experimental competencies in Physics consists of three main phases of the experimental process: "preparation", "performance" and "data analysis". Each phase has some components.…”

“…To facilitate effective teaching and assessment, it is essential to comprehensively model the performance of experiments. At the same time, the authors also developed a rubric that is both viable and reliable for assessing experimental competencies (Theyßen H et al, 2014). Moreover, the development of students' experimental competency requires teachers to create open inquiry learning tasks to help the students explore knowledge and skills on their own.…”

The impact of inquiry-based laboratories on improving pre-service teachers’ experimental competency

“…This underscores the need for the proposed new seminar concept for teacher training. Theyßen et al (2014) proposed a model of experimental competencies in Physics consisting of three main phases of the experimental process: "preparation", "performance", and "data analysis", containing some smaller components in each. The model focuses on the performance phase, such as assembling the experimental setup, as well as performing and documenting measurements.…”
