Abstract. According to constructivism, prior knowledge plays an important role in building students' scientific knowledge. Prior knowledge influences how students assimilate and accommodate new information. Prior knowledge affects how students perceive, organize, and create new information relationships. Therefore, in order to improve meaningful learning, students' prior knowledge needs to be identified. The purpose of this study was to identify the 11 th grade-students' prior knowledge of electricity concepts. Students' prior knowledge was measured using a Three-Tier Electricity Multiple Choice Test, which consisted of 20 items. This test was given to seventy-five 11 th grade students, who were 16-17 years of age. The data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that students' prior knowledge about electricity concepts was very diverse; only 22.40% of the students had a scientific concept; 36.73% of students experienced misconception; 31.20% of students do not know the concept, and 9.67% of students experience the error. Students' misconceptions about electricity concepts that were found in this study are in mutual accord with the literature of misconception. The implication of the research results for teaching about electricity is that appropriate conceptual change strategies are needed.

-Organic chemistry which is called as chemistry of carbon compounds has an important place in chemistry and other fields of science. The fact that the subject of alcohols in organic chemistry is related to organic compounds such as aldehyde, ketone and carboxylic acid made this subject one of the basic subjects of organic chemistry. For this reason, it was aimed to describe prospective science teachers' understanding levels and misconceptions about alcohols with this study. In this study, alcohol concept test which includes 16 multiple choice items was applied to 77 prospective science teachers to collect data. In addition, semi-structured interview was conducted with 12 prospective science teachers. At the end of study, it was determined that prospective science teachers had difficulties in understanding some topics such as physical properties of alcohols, structural isomerism, oxidation of alcohols and synthesis of alcohols and they had some misconceptions about these topics

“…Kavramsal değişimi sağlamada en etkili tekniklerden biri kavramsal değişim metinleridir (KDM). KDM öğrencilerin kavram yanılgılarını harekete geçiren, yaygın kavram yanılgılarını sunan, öğreneni bilimsel olarak doğru kabul edilen açıklamalara inandırmaya çalışan metinlerdir (Alkhawaldeh, 2007;Guzzetti, 2000;Özmen, 2007;Roth, 1985;Yürük, 2007). Bilimin doğası öğretiminde KDMnin kullanıldığı çalışmalar oldukça sınırlıdır.…”
