Not only individual concepts remain
unclear, but, when language mastering inadequacies become
extensive, they unavoidably determine poor conceptual
understanding, inadequate perceptions of fundamental
distinctions like the distinction between systems (physical
objects) and processes, or physical reality (comprising systems
and processes) and the tools that we utilise to describe them
(equations, diagrams, etc), and general lack of familiarization
with the scientific approach (which requires internalization of
the awareness of these distinctions up to the point that the
correct selection of the corresponding terms becomes
spontaneous). Students’ performance is severely affected.
