A qualitative phenomenology design was used in the study. Data was collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews comprising ten guiding questions. Three pre-service physics and three pre-service chemistry teachers participated conveniently in the study. While the pre-service chemistry teachers took a course regarding the CI explicitly taught, the pre-service physics teachers were not subjected to any information relating to the CI in their course. Data was analyzed by forming the codes and themes. Generally speaking, while the pre-service chemistry teachers think that physics concepts should be used in the chemistry lessons, the pre- service physics teachers believe that these two subjects’ concepts generally are not related to each other. Moreover, the participants had some difficulties in understanding the CI between physics and chemistry concepts. The possible implication for science teacher education and research is discussed. Keywords: conceptual integration, chemistry education, physics education, pre-service teacher education INTRODUCTION In constructivist view, students interpret the new knowledge according to what Correspondence: Mustafa Tuysuz, Faculty of Education, Secondary Science and Mathematics Education Department, Middle East Technical University, 06800, Turkey.

  • The Role of Mathematics in the Teaching and Learning of Physics
    Strand 2 Learning science: Cognitive, affective and social aspects THE ROLE OF MATHEMATICS IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF PHYSICS Andreas Redfors, Lena Hansson, Örjan Hansson and Kristina Juter Kristianstad University, Kristianstad, Sweden Abstract: This paper discusses the role of mathematics in physics teaching and learning. The intention and strength of science is to describe what happens in the real world by organizing explanations through theories and theoretical models. It has been widely suggested that learning in science is influenced by views about the nature of scientific knowledge. Furthermore, mathematics is an inherent part of theories and makes powerful predictions of natural phenomena possible. Ability to use mathe- matics to argue and prove results is central in physics. Students have been found to struggle with physics problems where they need to relate mathematically formulated theoretical models to the real world. This project has explored the role of mathematics for physics teaching and learning in upper-secondary school through investigations of relations made during physics lessons (lectures, problem solving and lab-work) between The real world – Theoretical models – Mathematics. A preliminary analysis indicate that there are some connections made by students and teacher between theories and the real world, but the bulk of the discussion in the classroom is con- cerning the relation between theoretical models and mathematics, which is in line with earlier research on problem solving. The preliminary results reported on here indicate that this also holds true for all the investigated organisational forms lectures, problem solving in groups and lab-work. A finalized and extended analysis will be published elsewhere.
