Analyze what must happen to a student when they are presented with a science problem that does not present concepts from his or her current understanding

What will be an ideal response?


The student sees the problem as a discrepant event that is in conflict with his or her current understanding. The student must then develop a new understanding of the event that fits with the scientifically correct explanation. The process of inquiry enables the student to explore ideas the lead to equilibration or a new conceptual understanding of the problem.
