Description

This study focuses on investigating the challenges encountered by preservice physics teachers (PPTs) in using two different methods for the same investigation using a structured inquiry activity. Eight PPTs will be working in pairs to investigate the image formation in plane mirror activity. Data sources include answers to pre-quiz, laboratory reports, video recordings of laboratory practice, and group interviews with students after the experiment. Based on the analysis of the data, we will discuss challenges that PPTs encounter when they investigate the topic using different experimental methods. Also, suggestions and implications will be presented.
