Journal of Research in Science Teaching
written by E. Walsh, G. Dall'Alba, J. Bowden, E. Martin, F. Marton, G. Masters, P. Ramsden, and A. Stephanou
Students' understanding of the concept of relative speed is described. A variety of ways of understanding relative speed and of viewing a problem that dealt with this concept were uncovered. The results are used to suggest ways for teachers to proceed in assisting students to enhance their understanding of relative speed.
