Description¶

The article describes a package of classroom pedagogical interventions used to correct students' teleologic and anthropomorphic language in Physics. As printed, "The interventons made were multmedia presentatons, classroom interactons and online discussions in the university online portal (both synchronous and asynchronous) to complement the designed laboratory experiments." These cognitions helped students formulate new concepts and scientific explanations on Kinematics, Dynamics, Statics and Thermodynamics.
