Student Misconceptions and Errors in Physics and Mathematics

This open access report explores the nature and extent of students’ misconceptions and misunderstandings related to core concepts in physics and mathematics and physics across grades four, eight and 12. Twenty years of data from the IEA’s Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and TIMSS Advanced assessments are analyzed, specifically for five countries (Italy, Norway, Russian Federation, Slovenia, and the United States) who participated in all or almost all TIMSS and TIMSS Advanced assessments between 1995 and 2015. The report focuses on students’ understandings related to gravitational force in physics and linear equations in mathematics. It identifies some specific misconceptions, errors, and misunderstandings demonstrated by the TIMSS Advanced grade 12 students for these core concepts, and shows how these can be traced back to poor foundational development of these concepts in earlier grades. Patterns in misconceptions and misunderstandings are reported by grade, country, and gender. In addition, specific misconceptions and misunderstandings are tracked over time, using trend items administered in multiple assessment cycles. The study and associated methodology may enable education systems to help identify specific needs in the curriculum, improve inform instruction across grades and also raise possibilities for future TIMSS assessment design and reporting that may provide more diagnostic outcomes.

Proceedings of the 9th Mathematics, Science, and Computer Science Education International Seminar (MSCEIS 2023)

This is an open access book. On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to be part of the 9th Mathematics, Science, and Computer Science Education International Seminar (MSCEIS) which will be held in Bandung, October 21th 2023. This conference is the biannual meeting of academia, researchers, and practitioner from across the country and the globe, and is organized by Faculty of Mathematics and Science Education, Indonesia University of Education. This conference provides great opportunities for strengthening collaboration as well as network not only with international but also national participants. The theme for the MSCEIS 2023 is “Shaping the Future: Trends and Insights in Mathematics, Computer, and Science Education researches to Support SDG’s”. We are confident that this conference will be a successful scientific gathering and will give a better platform for all participants to engage in meaningful conversations and share research ideas. This conference intends to bring together researchers, academicians, scientists and industrialists from across the world to discuss cutting-edge research and development, as well as identify futuristic trends and needs in the domains of chemistry and related fields such as Chemistry, Chemistry Education, Physic, Physic Education, Mathematic, Mathematic Education, Biology, Biology Education, Science Education, Computer Science, and Computer Science Education. It will include keynote and invited lectures, oral and poster presentations from distinguished professors and participants. The attendees will get also the opportunity to share ideas as well as develop professional relationships and locate global partners for future collaboration. We look forward to welcoming you to be part of MSCEIS in Bandung, 2023. We are very confident that this conference will be an intellectually exciting and enjoyable event for all.
