EFFECTIVENESS OF THE GRAPHICAL METHOD IN TEACHING LINEAR MOVEMENT
Keywords:
graphical method, linear movement, physics education, motion graphs, teaching strategies, conceptual understandingAbstract
This article explores the effectiveness of the graphical method in teaching linear movement in physics education. It analyzes how graphs can enhance students' conceptual understanding of motion, support problem-solving skills, and contribute to deeper engagement with real-world phenomena. The study highlights the role of visual learning tools in promoting scientific thinking among secondary school students.
