Quantitative data were obtained from tests at the end of each lesson in each cycle, and qualitative data were obtained from observations in the implementation of actions. Quantitative data analysis was carried out by determining the average score of students' understanding of the concept of effort and energy. Qualitative data were analyzed with the aim of improving the implementation of the action.
