Effects of Cooperative Learning on Instructing Magnetism: Analysis of an Experimental Teaching Sequence

This paper describes methods and the results of a work designed to analyze effectiveness of an experimental teaching sequence on the topic of magnetism. Cooperative learning techniques were employed to experimental group and conventional teaching method was used for control group throughout the teaching sequence. Sampling of the study
