The purpose of this study is to investigate elementary school 6th grade children's preconception on body's digestion, circulation, breathing and excretion. By means of questionnaire, teacher is presented with misconception which students may have. On the basis of this way, firstly they draw up and put in free-concepts were investigated from objective test and sought after misconeption which student had and inquired whether the result of response made difference by sex and areas or not The result of study is as follows: 1. In the course of investigating and analyzing mis-preconecptios, teacher had misconceptions partially, as like students. 2. Many a student have misconceptions: nourishment in made for itself in body. 3. In circulation range most of students know that heart is making blood, and they don't make conception that blood is nourishment which was eaten from food. 4. They know the breath is only physiological function: they breathe to live. All air-breathing is necessary. 5. They are not relevant blood in course of urine and sweat formation they have non-scientific conceptions which water eaten is so. They know that all of sweat and urine and ordure is excretion. To sum up, many student have misconceptions as for digestion and circulation and breath and excretion of body especially. Circulation and excretion is more so. if inspection in a field of sex, they will know male had less misconceptions than female. in a field of region, student from rural are as had more misconceptions than the one from urban areas.

Many students have misconceptions that upward direction force act on the object which is moving upward after being thrown vertically upward, and no force act on the object at the top of its flight because the object stop or don't' move at the top. To change these misconceptions, in this study, deductive reasoning tasks were used, and student's responses to the tasks were analyzed. In the first part of this study, student's prior conceptions about force and motion and student's deductive reasoning abilities were investigated. And the second part, student's explanations were classified to either the premise-based or idea-based explanation. In the case of the object which is moving upward, 62% of students who had misconception changed their misconceptions to physically correct concept, but, only 24% of students changed their misconceptions for the object at the top. For the first task, more students changed their misconceptions when they made responses based on premises than based on their own idea(p<.05), so, the first task can be helpful for conceptual change. 40% students changed their own misconception by reasoning deductively based on premises provided in the first task, but only 17% students changed by the second task. Student's reasoning abilities investigated in the first part of this study did not affect the conceptual change. Four students for the first task and one student for the second task did not change their misconception even though they made premise-based explanation and had high reasoning abilities.

Students often have tenacious physics misconceptions and many studies were conducted on engendering conceptual change. Correspondingly, there is much literature on alternative assessment and its role in student learning. This is a comparison study on using alternative assessments to improve common students' misconceptions in GCE Advanced Level Physics. This research also aims to affirm alternative assessment as a valid tool for learning and promote its use. This study involved two classes with 24 students each. For four weeks, electromagnetism was taught to students using the same classroom pedagogies but with different assignments. The control group completeda standard drill-and-practice assignment while the experimental group finished an alternative assessment. From the preliminary results, students who undertook the alternative assessment and the traditional assessment both improved, however, the treatment group did not perform statistically significantly better than the control group. The reasons will be discussed and commented and it is expected to have significant improvement on rectifying misconceptionsupon next batch of experimentation groups.

이 연구에서는 2009 개정 교육과정 중학교 지구 과학 교과서에 제시되는 천문 영역의 과학 용어 113개에 대한 중학교 3학년 학생 5인의 용어에 대한 체감 난이도, 이해 확신도와 정의를 검사지를 통해 살펴보고, 추가 면담을 통해 천문 용어에 대한 학생들의 오개념 유형과 그 대표적인 용어 - 오개념의 예시를 분석했다. 학생들이 제시한 용어의 정의는 크게 정답과 낮은 수준의 이해, 오답으로 분류되었으며, 낮은 수준의 이해는 상위 수준의 정의 서술, 개념의 미분화로 하위 분류되었고, 오답은 과학적 오인에 의한 방해, 사전 지식 미비 등으로 하위 분류되었다. 용어로 인한 오개념과 선행 오개념이 구분될 수 있다는 점에서, 용어로 인한 오개념은 용어 변경이라는 방법을 통해 오개념 형성을 미연에 방지할 수 있으므로 효율적 처방이 될 수 있다. 또한, 은유적 용어로 인한 장점과 단점을 학생들이 인식하고 있으며, 자신의 이해 수준을 잘 파악하고 있다는 점은 학습자 스스로가 자신의 오개념을 인지하는 것이 오개념 수정의 첫 번째 단계임을 고려할 때 좋은 출발점이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 과학 교육에서의 용어는 중요한 논의 대상으로, 시대에 따라 적합한 용어의 선정을 위해 노력하고 있으며 과학 용어가 바뀌기도 한다. 이 연구 결과가 용어의 수정에 대한 논의의 기초 자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

편각은 판구조론 이해의 바탕이 되는 개념이며 실생활에서 지도와 나침반을 이용하여 자신의 위치를 결정할 때도 쓰이는 중요한 개념이다. 이에 제 7차 교육과정에서 사용되고 있는 6종의 지구과학 II 교과서에서 편각에 대한 설명이 어떻게 기술되어 있는지 확인하고 고등학생들이 오개념을 가질 수 있는 가능성을 조사하였다. 개념 검사지를 통해 실제로 나타나고 있는 고등학생들의 오개념을 확인하고 교과서와의 연관성을 알아보았다. 그 결과 고등학생들은 특히 자북극과 관련하여 오개념을 가지고 있었고 이는 교과서의 편각에 대한 설명 부족과 함께 잘못된 삽화와 밀접한 관계가 있었다. 따라서 편각에 대한 정확한 이해를 위해서는 비쌍극자 효과를 추가한 편각의 설명이 필요하고 이에 따른 삽화의 제시가 필요함을 확인하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a multiple cognitive conflict strategy at remedying student's misconceptions. Elementary students have many misconceptions about the brightness of the electric bulb in simple dual circuits. Most of the misconceptions can be summed up as 'the more batteries or the fewer bulbs, the brighter is the output.' The students have learned about the brightness of the electric bulb while connected to a battery in Grade 4 and the brightness of multiple electric bulbs in Grade 5. However, about $50%$ of the students remain with the firm misconception that the brightness of the bulb is related to the number of source batteries. This strong misconception may not lead to a conceptual change in the case of only one cognitive conflict. This study used a multiple conflict strategy while tackling the cognitive conflicts in the students as they solved the problems many times. It involved 160 grade 5 students. The result was they often changed their misconceptions and used more scientific thinking than the same grade students of other schools. It remains to be seen if this success will transfer to other schools and students and we intend on studying further the differences in students regarding this learning process.

Background: The prevalence of smoking among secondary school children continues to remain unchanged over the last 3 decades even though awareness regarding the health effects of smoking is increasing. Common misconceptions about smoking and parental influence could be factors influencing future intentions to smoke among these students. Hence, we looked at the common misconceptions as well as student perceptions about their future intention to smoke among Form 4 students in Shah Alam, Malaysia. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted by distribution of a questionnaire developed as part of the Global Youth Tobacco Survey to Form 4 student in 3 schools at Shah Alam. Results: Prevalence of smoking (current smokers) was 7.5%. Almost half of the children came from families where one or both parents smoked and a third of the parents had no discussion regarding consequences of smoking with them. A large number of students were classified as "triers" as they had tried smoking and were unsure of whether they would not be smoking in the future. Contrary to our expectations, students generally felt smoking did make one feel more uncomfortable and helped one to reduce body weight. Most students seemed to be aware of the ill-effects of smoking on health. They felt they had received adequate information from school regarding the effects on smoking on health. Conclusions: Our study showed that even though Form 4 students in Shah Alam were knowledgeable about ill-effects of smoking and were taught so as part of their school curriculum, the prevalence of smoking was still high. Students in the "trier group" represent a potential group of future smokers and strategies targeting tobacco control may be aimed at tackling these vulnerable individuals. Efforts are also needed to help educate secondary school children about common misconceptions and dispel myths associated with cigarette smoking.

This study is to enquire about ideals on combustion and to propose of teaching program using the history a science in '5. Combustion and Extinguishing' unit of elementary school science textbook in 6th grade. For this purpose, investigation questionnaires based on preceding research and science textbook are developed. The reliability of the questionnaires is .784, and the questionnaires are applied to 247 students in T elementary school in Busan. Through the results of the investigation, scientific conceptions existed in some parts. But some misconceptions still existed especially (question 1), substance's changes (question 7), formation process of product (question 13), combustibles among requirements of combustion. The patterns of the misconception are similar to historical misconceptions about combustion. Besides, the discoveries and inventions of combustion have some points about correcting misconceptions. Thus the five step teaching programs on combustion which were applied to history of the science are suggested. The confidence of the developed programs was verified as being 'excellent' by specialists. This program will be applied to think deeply about combustion in elementary school lesson and useful to introduce the history of science.
