Abstract
In order to enhance the learning effectiveness of introductory physics, our research team had conducted a series of studies to develop "IRS Supported Instruction Model" (ISIM) according to the features of the teacher's teaching methods and introductory physics. For evaluating the effectiveness of ISIM, the current study explored, by field experiment, the classroom interaction and students' achievements in introductory physics courses that the teacher teaching with ISIM or with lectures. The current study results showed that the student-instructor interaction of the experimental group was substantially enhanced, and students under the teaching with ISIM showed better performance in the learning achievements comparing with the students under lecture method. Furthermore, the students' attendance was excellent.
