Abstract

By exploring the Science Teacher program students’ misconceptions, this study was aimed to eliminate their misconceptions about image formation in plane mirrors by conceptual change texts. The data were obtained by applying a three-tired multiple choice test. The sample of the study were 90 sophomore students studying in Agri Ibrahim Cecen University Faculty of Education, Science Education Department. The conceptual change texts were then prepared to apply for instructional method in experimental group. By being parallel to each other conceptual change text method for experimental group and traditional lecturing method for control group were applied respectively. Later the multiple choice test were applied as post-test in both experimental and control group. The study showed that the conceptual change texts were more effective than traditional method for instruction to eliminate students’ misconceptions about image formation in plane mirrors.
