An Instruction Model Of Applying Concept Map To Facilitate And Promote Physics Conceptual Change

Physics concept is the foundation of physics knowledge system and the essence of physics theory. Therefore, concept teaching is the basis of the whole physics teaching. But lots of teaching practices indicate that the status of physics concept teaching is not optimistic. One of the major reasons is that teachers ignore the students' pre-conception in their brains before the teaching activity and just infuse scientific conception to the students pushily which not allow students to experience the conceptual change process from pre-conception to scientific conception truly.In the face of the puzzles of physics concept teaching, the author collected and trimmed the related literature about concept map and conceptual change. Based on lots of teaching function of concept map related to conception change, the author tried to combine concept map and conceptual change from three aspects: exploring students' pre-conception by concept map, promoting conceptual change of students by concept map and evaluating conceptual change learning of students by concept map. Moreover, the author demonstrated the feasibility and necessity of applying concept map to conceptual change. In addition, with students' practice in china, applying to the ideas of New Curriculum, the author puts forward a new concept instruction model, namely an instruction model of applying concept map to facilitate and promote conceptual change, and explains the model in details from the theoretical foundation, instructional objective, instructional process, implement condition and instructional evaluation. At last, the preliminary experimental research of the instruction model of applying concept to promote conceptual change is carried out to prove the feasibility and validity of model. The main conclusion of this study includes the following:Firstly, the author concluded that concept map is an effective tool for promoting the conceptual change in physics teaching, which provides a reference for concept map and conceptual change for the future.Secondly, with conceptual change as model, with concept map as tool, with students' pre-conception as teaching starting, with students' practice in china, and applying to the ideas of New Curriculum, the author develops a new concept instruction model, namely an instruction model of applying concept map to facilitate and promote conceptual change in physics. This model carries out the change of teaching methods from giving and accepting to constructing and provides a beneficial reference to teachers in primary and secondary school.Finally, the preliminary experimental research of the instruction model of applying concept to promote conceptual change is carried out. The research shows that the model has been widely recognized by teachers and students in teaching practice. Compared with the traditional instruction model, the model has better effect on promoting conceptual change and forming concept network. Moreover, the instruction model achieves the best teaching effect to secondary students.
