Using a Conflict Map as an Instructional Tool To Change Student Conceptions in Simple Series Electric-Circuits.
Tsai, Chin-Chung
International Journal of Science Education, v25 n3 p307-27 Mar 2003
Examines the effects of using a conflict map on 8th grade students' conceptual change and ideational networks about simple series electric circuits. Analyzes student interview data through a flow map method. Shows that the use of conflict maps could help students construct greater, richer, and more integrated ideational networks about electric circuits. (Author/KHR)
