摘要: This study explored which conceptual difficulties regarding electric and magnetic fields occur amongst South African physics teachers who participate in the Sediba programme. Misconceptions that were found regarded light of variation theory learning, i.e. it was investigated critical aspects concepts field do not discern, could lead to their misconceptions confusion concepts. Finally, a lecture programme, aims enhance teachers’ content knowledge, analysed investigate space established. The analysis determined learning potential emerged during terms possible discernment aspects, consequently whether change participants' conceptions be expected.
