Context-based chemistry education has been devised to address the problems of chemistry education (Demirciog˘lu et al.2009; Stolk et al.2009a). The context-based approach aims to develop and sustain a sense of wonder and curiosity of young people about the natural world (Demirciog˘lu et al. 2009). The context-based approach to science/chemistry teaching has become increasingly popular (Winther and Volk1994; Barker and Millar1999; Yager and Weld1999;Tsai2000); the context-based chemistry curricula includ-ing Salters Advanced Chemistryin the UK (Barker and Millar2000; Bennett and Lubben 2006), Chemistry in Context(Schwartz 2006) and ChemCom(Sutman and Bruce1992) in the USA, Industrial Chemistry in Israel (Hofstein and Kesner 2006), Chemie im Kontextin Ger-many (Parchmann et al.2006), and the Chemistry in Practice in the Netherlands (Bulte et al.2006; see Table 1).
