Ozden Sengul

• This article describes the implementation of an activity with a Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) learning cycle to teach the concepts of velocity and acceleration to physics students aged 17-19. The study indicates how the instructor enacted the activity and provides sample student responses and group discussions. The description includes an example of an activity to integrate into an introductory-level physics course. This type of activity may be implemented in different contexts to address students’ learning difficulties.
