Teachers should first remove misconceptions of students so that students can learn new concepts in a meaningful
context. To do so, misconceptions should be detected in the first place. Teachers should be able to use different
methods and materials for this aim. Therefore, teachers should be informed about concept teaching and
misconceptions.
Animations should be used in the instruction of abstract and hard-to-learn topics like photosynthesis and
respiration. It would be fruitful that field experts and educational technolgists collaborate on preparation of such
animations.
Similar studies with a larger sample and in a longer time may be conducted. Studying with longer periods may
help to determine the effectiveness of animations and whether misconceptions resist to the change.
Similar studies with the aim of determining the effectiveness of CAI materials on removing misconceptions
should be applied in different topics of Science& Technology course curriculum. By this way, materials suitable for
different topics in Science& Technology course could be developed and their efficiency on removing
misconceptions could be discussed.
