Calik, Muammer; Ayas, Alipasa; Coll, Richard Kevin – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2007
This paper reports on the use of a constructivist-based pedagogy to enhance understanding of some features of solution chemistry. Pre-service science teacher trainees' prior knowledge about the dissolution of salts and sugar in water were elicited by the use of a simple diagnostic tool. The test revealed widespread alternative conceptions. These…

Bencze, J. Lawrence; Bowen, G. Michael – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2009
School science systems tend to emphasize teaching and learning about achievements of science (such as laws and theories) at the expense of providing students with opportunities to develop realistic conceptions about science and science inquiry and expertise they could use to conduct their own science inquiry projects. Among reasons for such an…
