Observing
Step 2: Questioning
Q&A: Have you ever seen boats by the harbour with sea waves beating on
them and creating patterns of waves around the boats?
Expected outcomes: Yes / Never
Q&A: Observe what happens to the wave? Why?
Expected outcomes: Waves bend // waves reflected // direction or shape of
waves changed. There is obstacle (boat) // boat blocks the incident waves.

more obvious.
4. Teacher asks students to observe diagrams of wave passing through
obstacle only, then guides students to describe diffraction of waves and
compare diffraction effects.
Expected outcomes for obstacles:
Q&A: What is the pattern of the waves after passing through the obstacle?
Expected outcomes: bend at edges / missing at middle / combined after a
while / calm area behind obstacle
Q&A: Compare the pattern of the waves after passing through the small and
big obstacle?
Expected outcomes: bigger calm area for big obstacle / vice versa // waves
combined faster after smaller obstacle
Q&A: Compare the wavelength with the size of obstacle.
Expected outcomes: wavelength smaller than obstacle / larger than
obstacle.
Q&A: Compare the direction of propagation / wavelength / speed / frequency
before and after diffraction.
Expected outcomes: change direction / equal wavelength, speed, frequency
Q&A: What can you conclude about the diffraction effect when waves pass
through smaller obstacle or bigger obstacle?
Expected outcomes: The smaller the obstacle, more spreading of waves /
smaller shadow / combines after shorter distance

Summary :
Guide student complete the I-Think map:
Diagram above shows water waves approaching a harbour and chalets near the beach.
Without a retaining wall, the waves will be able to damage the harbour and chalets during
monsoon season. As an engineer, you are assigned to build a retaining wall to protect the
boats docked in the harbour and the chalets near the beach.
Rajah di atas menunjukkan gelombang air yang sedang merambat menghala ke sebuah pelabuhan
dan chalet-chalet berdekatan dengan pantai. Tanpa benteng halangan, gelombang itu berupaya
merosakkan pelabuhan dan chalet ketika musim tengkujuh. Sebagai seorang jurutera, anda
ditugaskan untuk membina sebuah benteng untuk melindungi bot-bot yang sedang berlabuh di
pelabuhan dan chalet-chalet berdekatan pantai. Dalam reka bentuk anda, berikan penekanaan dan
penerangan.
What problems did I experience? Are there things I could have done differently?
