Analyzing students' learning progressions throughout a teaching sequence on Acoustic Properties of Materials with a model-based inquiry approach

The study we have carried out aims to characterize 15- to 16-year-old students' learning progressions throughout the implementation of a teaching-learning sequence on the acoustic properties of materials. Our purpose is to better understand students' modeling processes about this topic and...
