Modeling Instruction

Parames LaosinchaiNamkang Sriwattanarothai

WHY MODELING INSTRUCTION ?- Improve conceptual understanding compared to traditional class

(Brewe et al, 2010)- Move students toward more expert-like views on the nature of

science (Brewe et al, 2009, 2013)- Positively impact students’ view of their own capability and success

(Sawtelle et al, 2010; Goertzen et al, 2012)- Produce students who can think (Jackson et al, 2008)

Nature of Models

Scientific models▰ Simplify objects and/or processes▰ Explain phenomena

Benefits of models in science education▰ Construct conceptual understanding▰ (Self-)Assess conceptual understanding

Modeling Process

Bridge the gap between▰ Source: prior knowledge and experiences▰ Target: the phenomena we want to

understand▰ Transfer some features of the source to the

target of the model18

Reflecting questions

▰ What object/process does the model try to explain?▰ What knowledge/experiences are the sources of the

model?▰ Which features of the sources are transferred to the

target?▰ To what extent can the model explain the

phenomena?▰ Are the limitations of the model crucial to the

understanding of the phenomena? 40

▰ The agenda/question should not be too easy or too difficult for students (maybe the hardest to do)

▰ If it is, try breaking down into smaller pieces▰ Use discrepant questions to scaffold

students toward the target model
