We've designed an action research project to help us to familiarise with the AR process.
1. A group of students would learn the topic "lenses" (under Light) using an interactive IT-based lesson module (downloaded from MOE http://www.moe.gov.sg/edsoftware/ir/physics.htm and installed in computer lab) while another equivalent group would have normal classroom lessons. Written worksheets were given to both groups for ray-diagram practice.
2. A post-test of 5 items (mcq with reasoning required) would be conducted after the lessons to evaluate the learning effect.
3. A perception survey would also be conducted to find out the attitudes of the students towards the two learning methods.
