Description
We investigated the impact of different representations on answering conceptual questions in physics using eye tracking. Students' scores and eye-tracking measures were compared across graphical, pictorial, and verbal representations in isomorphic questions. High school students were rather consistent in their answers across all representations, with no significant score differences. However, eye-tracking data revealed that extracting information was easiest from verbal representations and most challenging from pictorial ones. These findings can inform teachers and researchers about the challenges students face with specific representations and assist them in teaching with diverse representations.
