Rotbain, Yosi; Stavy, Ruth; Marbach-Ad, Gili – Science Education Review, 2008
Our main goal in this study was to explore whether the use of models in high school molecular genetics instruction can contribute to students' understanding of concepts and processes in genetics. Three hundred and nineteen students from four comparable groups of 11th- and 12th-grade students participated. The control group (116 students) was…
