Influence of visuospatial models construction and usage on college students’ academic achievement in molecular and hybridization geometries in Ghana
Keywords:
Computer-Assisted Instruction, Achievement, Traditional Method, Hybridization.Abstract
This action research study examines the visual-spatial model’s effects on science students’ performance in molecular and hybridization geometries. Although the diagnostic test revealed both groups showed similar conceptual abilities and challenges, the studies’ outcome showed that the visuospatial model’s approach to teaching the molecular and hybridization geometries enhanced the student’s conceptual understanding. The visuospatial model representations allow students to learn about the abstract subject matter of disciplines’ scientific knowledge. Therefore, the use of visuospatial models in teaching enhances students' visual imaginations and thoughts about concepts.
