Strata of Comprehending Ecology: Looking through the Prism of Feeding Relations.
Eilam, Billie
Science Education, v86 n5 p645-71 Sep 2002
Focuses on 9th grade students' difficulties in learning ecology. Identifies three dimensions as basic obstacles that might hinder students' meaningful learning in ecology: (1) the microlevel dimension; (2) the spatial dimension of ecosystem; and (3) the time dimension. Examines these dimensions in student understanding of the concept of food chains in the ecosystem. (Contains 34 references.) (Author/YDS)
