THE SYNECTICS MODEL OF TEACHING IN PHYSICS IN RELATION TO THEIR ACHIEVEMENT IN PHYSICS AMONG HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

The purpose of secondary school physics teaching is not only to enable students to systematically
grasp the basic knowledge of physics needed to further study science and technology, but also to
unsettle young people’s minds and inflame their minds. In the present study the research
investigator use Synectic Model teaching comparing with traditional method by using the
Experimental Method in higher secondary school student the sample is this study. Eighty (80)
higher secondary school students have been chosen by using random sampling techniques.
Results revealed that there is a significant difference between the control and experimental group
of XI standard science students with respect to the Achievement test in Physics. It is also resulted
that the girls are found to be better than the boys on achievement test in physics. The educational
implication and suggestion for further research were discussed.
