A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELLING STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF PROBLEM SOLVING STRATEGIES OF CANDIDATE ENGINEERS ON WORD PHYSICS PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS

The primary purpose in basic physics lessons is to teach students basic physics concept and principles, then to teach them how to use these concepts and principles in problem solving because it is believed that students learn physics as long as they are able to solve physics problems. However, resea...
