Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the pre-service teachers' level of understanding and alternative ideas about the concepts of “melting of ice, density, and solubility of gases in the water”. For this purpose, a case study was used in the study. The data collection tool consists of three open-ended questions. The questions were applied to 90 primary school teachers in Science and Technology Laboratory Practices course. The levels of understanding of primary school teachers regarding the concepts of melting of ice, density, and solubility of gases in the water were examined in five categories as full understanding, partial understanding, partial understanding with a specific alternative framework, alternative frameworks, and no answer. In addition, alternative frameworks related to the concepts of melting of ice, density, and solubility of gases in the water are described by direct quotations from students' expressions. According to the results of the study, it was observed that the primary school teachers had many alternative frameworks about the change of mass, volume, and density of ice in the melting of ice. In addition, it was observed that a small number of the primary school teachers responded correctly and there were many alternative structures regarding the change of solubility of gases and density of liquids with temperature. The primary school teachers' explanations were mostly inadequate and there were many unscientific statements

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, sınıf öğretmen adaylarının “buzun erimesi, yoğunluk ve gazların sudaki çözünürlüğü’’ kavramlarına ilişkin anlama düzeylerini ve alternatif yapılarının belirlenmesidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda çalışmada durum çalışması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı üç adet açık uçlu sorudan oluşmaktadır. Sorular Fen ve Teknoloji Laboratuvar Uygulamaları dersindeki 90 sınıf öğretmen adayına uygulanmıştır. Öğretmen adaylarının buzun erimesi, yoğunluk ve çözünürlük kavramlarına ilişkin anlama düzeyleri tam anlama, kısmi anlama, bir spesifik alternatif yapı ile kısmî anlama, alternatif yapılar ve cevapsız şeklinde beş kategoride değerlendirilmiştir. Ayrıca buzun erimesi, yoğunluk ve çözünürlük kavramlarına ilişkin alternatif yapılar öğrencilerin ifadelerinden doğrudan alıntılar yapılarak betimlenmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre öğretmen adaylarının genellikle buzun erimesi olayında kütle, hacim ve yoğunluk değişimine ilişkin alternatif yapılara sahip oldukları görülmüştür. Ayrıca gazların sudaki çözünürlüğüne ve sıvıların yoğunluğunun sıcaklıkla değişimine ilişkin az sayıda öğretmen adayının bilimsel olarak doğru cevap verdiği görülmüştür. Öğretmen adaylarının belirtilen kavramlara ilişkin açıklamaları çoğunlukla yetersiz bulunmuş ve bilimsel olmayan çok sayıda ifadenin bulunduğu görülmüştür
