Abstract

The study of the changes of state of water is difficult in conceptual terms, so to create a teaching theory that corrects the student's naive concepts and form a scientific concept is an important assignment today. This research project examines small group discussion in the science class, to determine whether externalizing the idea is effective for conceptual change. The procedure is to compare a group that discussed in small groups about their predictions and considerations and a group that did not. Also, a method to externalize the students' ideas (discourse and small notes) was used. The results of the study clearly show that having the group discussion in small groups and externalizing the ideas of the students induces their conceptual change.
