| dc.description.abstract | This study is to explore the effect and relation of students′ learning behaviors and learning achievement using the U-Physics system to learn the acceleration of the sliding object. As a teaching tool, U-Physics can transform the data in the experiment into a graph, which is easy for the students to understand, students therefore, can solve the problem by explaining the graph and applying the formula. The participants of this experiment were first-year vocational high school students. The goal of this study is to improve students′ learning behaviors as well as motivation through learning map, and help them learn physical formulas. In addition, this research is based on learning in an authentic environment to help students understand the physics formulas which is adaptive in their daily life. The learning behaviors of this study are as follows: interpreting graph, applying formula, drawing conclusion, the authentic post /comment, and the learning record. In the experiment, we selected two classes as the experimental group and the control group respectively, and the experimental results show that the experimental group outperformed the control group significantly in all learning behaviors, which indicates that the learning map was effective in improving students′ learning behaviors.
