Weakness and Remedies
- Poor mathematical representation.
- Mishandling of units where conversion is inevitable
- Poor arrangement of facts.
- Possession of vague ideas about some concepts like kinetic theory of gases, renewable energy, six’s maximum and minimum thermometer etc.
- Inability to
- express themselves in good and simple sentences
- give correct definition of some terms.
- recognize the appropriate equation of motion (i.e = +2gh or = ) to apply from the standpoint of the given data in question 1.
Based on the observed weaknesses, the Chief Examiners recommended as follows:
- Physics teachers should endeavor to solve mathematical problems after each lesson.
- Candidates should study and not read Physics
- Qualified and experienced Physics teachers should be employed
- Government should equip school laboratories with apparatus for effective learning
