Senior Students' Comprehension of Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity

Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 13, Issue 4

Abstract

Physics is perceived as a difficult subject for secondary and tertiary students. Hence, this study was made to find out the comprehension of Senior High School Students on Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. Descriptive research design was employed in the study. Data showed that most of the respondents were females, 16 years old and had an average physics grade of 87. Findings revealed that the respondents' comprehension was associated with their average physics grade since both male and female respondents performed equally in post comprehension. However, the respondents' pre and post comprehension showed a significant difference. This implies that the respondents' performance in post comprehension is better than in the pre-comprehension.
