Effect of conceptual change approach accompanied with concept mapping on understanding of solution concepts
Kondakçı, Esen; Geban, Ömer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-07-01)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of conceptual change texts accompanied with concept mapping instruction, compared to traditional instruction (TI), on 8th grade students' understanding of solution concepts and their attitudes toward science as a school subject. Solution Concept Test was developed as a result of examination of related literature and interviews with teachers regarding their observations of students' difficulties. The test was administered to a total of 64 eighth grade s...
Effectiveness of conceptual change instruction on overcoming students' misconceptions of electric field, electric potential and electric potential energy at tenth grade level
Vatansever, Orhan; Sancar, Mehmet Tevfik; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2006)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the conceptual change text based instruction over traditionally designed physics instruction to overcome tenth grade students’ misconceptions on electric field, electric potential and electric potential energy concepts. To provide conceptual change, conceptual change texts (CCT) were developed by the researcher. An Electric Potential and Electric Potential Energy Concept Test (EPEPECT) which consists of 10-items was developed and used to exam...
EFFECTIVENESS OF CONCEPTUAL CHANGE INSTRUCTION ON FLUID FORCE TOPIC
Ipekcioglu, S.; Elmas, R.; Geban, Ömer; Yesilyurt, H. (2011-03-09)
The main purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of conceptual change oriented instruction over traditionally designed science instruction on 8th grade students' understanding of fluid force concepts. Participants of the study were fifty five 8th grade students from two classes in a private elementary school. This study is a quasi experimental pretest-posttest control group design. Both groups were administered Fluid Force Concept Achievement Test as pre and post test. Also Logical Thinkin...
Effect of case based learning on 10th grade students’ understanding of gas concepts, their attitude and motivation
Yalçınkaya, Eylem; Boz, Yezdan; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2010)
The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of case-based instruction based on conceptual change conditions to overcome 10th grade students’ misconceptions related to gas concepts. Moreover, the effect of this method on students’ attitudes toward chemistry and their perceived motivation was explored. The study was carried out during the 2008-2009 academic year at both a state high school and an Anatolian high school. A total of 128 tenth grade students were the participants of the st...
EFFECT OF CONCEPTUAL CHANGE APPROACH ON STUDENTS' UNDERSTANDING OF REACTION RATE CONCEPTS
Kingir, Sevgi; Geban, Ömer (2012-01-01)
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of conceptual change text oriented instruction compared to traditional instruction on 10th grade students' understanding of reaction rate concepts. 45 students from two classes of the same teacher in a public high school participated in this study. Students in the experimental group were instructed by conceptual change text oriented instruction while students in the control group were instructed by traditional instruction. The results indicated ...
