Teaching Approach in Physics
Suresh, V. J.
ABSTRACT
"Semiconductor devices and their applications" is a chapter introduced in the Standard XII Physics portion.
This unit starts with the basic information of semiconductors and then advances to the functions of
semiconductor
devices such as rectifier, amplifier, oscillator, integrated circuits, digital electronics and operational
amplifier.
Though the students know the importance of this unit, they avoid selecting questions from this unit. Those
who select
also make many common errors and lose marks. This is mainly due to the lack of previous knowledge, confusion
between
similar concepts and also misinterpretation of important concepts. Some of the misconceptions are identified
and their
remedial measures are suggested below.
Keywords: teaching approach, physics education, instructional methods, pedagogy, science
