Various Modern Research Approaches in Physics education

Abstract

The primary focus of today's classrooms is on equipping students with the skills and dispositions they'll need to become productive members of the 21st-century workforce and global economy. The new benchmarks for schools place a premium on developing more complex cognitive abilities including inductive and deductive reasoning, original thought, and problem solving, among others. Although there is a wealth of information and agreement on the topic of what 21st century skills are necessary for success, there has been a dearth of studies looking into the interplay and evolution of the linked subskills. In order to situate current efforts to encourage deep learning and cultivate talents in high-level thinking, this study gives a short summary of the literature on physics education. Next-generation physics courses and the future of physics education may be affected by the conclusions drawn from this systematic review of the literature on 21st-century skills and physics education.
