Scientific paper

A unit based on the Electric Circuits module from Physics by Inquiry1 has been designed for and tested in a public high school classroom. Both the adaptation and the implementation of the unit were informed by three years of participation in an NSF Summer Institute for Inservice Teachers taught by the Physics Education Group at the University of Washington. Challenges exist in using such an approach in high school physics classrooms. This implementation addresses challenges such as utilization of the physical classroom space, group material organization, and strategies for improving the effectiveness of group work. Results from pretests and post-tests that have been administered to students will be discussed.
