Abstract

There are so many research literatures on conceptual change theory and the nature of concepts such as p-prims, mental model, ontological belief, and cognitive structure. Conceptual change means learning (Vosniadou, 1999; Duit;1999). It is necessary to review and elaborate existing conceptual change theories in order to explain the learning process and its implications. Therefore, we derived from reviewing literatures that learners construct new conceptual structure in response to given contexts at the same time activating their beliefs. We reviewed some mental theories that integrated cognitive and affective components and were based on framework/specific theory or information processing theory. We suggest learners' framework of conceptual structure and conflict model of conceptual structure. We expect to obtain effective ways of science teaching and learning and implications for cognitive conflict and conceptual change from using conceptual structure later.

다양한 개념변화이론이 존재하는 만큼 학습자들의 개념변화과정을 기술하기 위해 각각의 개념변화 이론에 열거된 분석대상이 다르다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 여러 가지 개념변화이론의 옳고 그름을 논의하지 않는다. 다만, 교실에서 일어나는 개념변화를 학습이라고 할 때 학습 과정을 설명하고 시사점을 얻기 위해서 기존의 이론을 고찰하여 정교화 시킬 필요성이 요구되었다. 본 연구에서는 학습이란 과제와 같은 주어진 맥락에 반응하여 학습자들이 갖고 있던 신념이 활성화되면서 새로운 개념구조를 구성하는 과정임을 이론적 고찰을 통해 이끌어내었다. 틀이론과 특정이론을 바탕으로 구성되는 정신모형에 대한 이론, 정보처리 이론에 바탕으로 둔 정신모형이론과 인지적 영역과 정의적 요인들을 통합한 정신모형 이론을 개략적으로 살피고 교실 수업에서 학습자가 구성하는 개념구조의 틀을 제안하였다. 또한 이것을 바탕으로 인지갈등을 새롭게 해석할 수 있는 개념구조적 갈등 모형을 제안하였다. 앞으로 이것을 이용하여 교실 수업에서 학습자들이 효과적으로 과학적 개념구조를 획득할 수 있는 방안들과 인지갈등을 포함한 개념변화에 대한 시사점을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
