Results of a pedagogical experiment to verify the role of motivation in different types of chemistry teaching approaches
Abstract
Inquiry-Based Science Education (IBSE) is one of the programs science education, which has its positives and negatives. To avoid the negatives of IBSE, could it be enough to apply just some elements of BOV incorporated in to the traditional, conventional education? So we decided to study the role of motivation and an attractive topic in IBSE.
The pedagogical experiment was realized and a comparison of inquiry-based science education and traditional teaching with attractive topic/motivation was organized. In the research part, there are shown the results of pedagogical research - we measured students' knowledge of contents and skills and popularity of the teaching of the natural sciences.
The pupils achieved similar results in the control and experimental groups.
