Abstract |
Abstract: Smartphones play an important role in the field of science education. The use of
smartphones has changed the way of learning in and about science with the support of
mobile applications. This paper presents the effect of smartphone-based laboratory in
physical science of solution on middle school students’ learning perception and attitude. A
total of 43 seventh-grade students in a public secondary school located northeastern region
of Thailand voluntarily participated in this study. They were assigned to interact with a
series of smartphone-based hands-on inquiry laboratory in physical science of solution for
two weeks. After, they were administered 21-items and 20-items perception and attitude
questionnaire, respectively. The preliminary results showed that they expressed positive
perceptions towards the learning experience of smartphone-based laboratory and impressed
with the laboratory lessons. In addition, they expressed positive attitudes to the laboratory
experience. This revealed that it is a challenge to use smartphone-based hands-on inquiry
laboratory learning as a pedagogy for new generation learners in physical science learning.
