In science education, teachers use models to help students learn about the world, and students understand a theory through models. Teachers use various characteristics and models to assist students in exploring and learning the nature. The instructions in this study covered two units, including density and aqueous solution, and were designed based on the modeling process proposed by Chiu, Mei-Hung (2016). This process includes eight steps: model selection, model building, model validation, model analysis, model application, model deployment, model adjustment, and model rebuilding. The objective of this study was to investigate whether modeling instruction is helpful for students in learning the density and aqueous solution units. The focus of this study was two-fold. One was to examine the effectiveness of modeling instruction for students in learning “density”, and the other was to evaluate its effectiveness in learning “aqueous solution”. The participants were students of four eight-grade classes of a junior high school in Taipei City. They were randomly divided into two groups, including the modeling instruction group and the traditional instruction group. There were 109 participants in total, 55 in the modeling instruction group and 54 in the traditional instruction group. Both quantitative and qualitative instruments were employed. The quantitative instruments included pretest, posttest, and retention test for understanding of the density and aqueous solution concepts and a cognitive load questionnaire. The qualitative instruments included the students’ interview data. The expert validity of the tests for understanding of concepts was established by two college professors with a chemistry background and a senior junior high school teacher. In terms of reliability, the tests for the density and aqueous solution units were respectively measured at 0.81 and 0.79. The students’ test results were analyzed using t-test and ANCOVA on SPSS. The results were as follows: (1) Modeling instruction helped students in learning scientific concepts and solving scientific problems. The participants showed significant improvements in learning the concepts of density (F=25.1,p<0.001) and the concepts of aqueous solution (F=13.83,p<0.001); (2) Modeling instruction was most helpful for students of intermediate competence in learning scientific concepts. When applied to more complicated scientific concepts, it was less helpful for students of low competence but more helpful for students of high competence; (3) Modeling instruction uses model thinking as an approach to assist students with learning and problem-solving. In this study, as students needed to learn scientific concepts and the modeling framework in this process, modeling instruction would more easily cause cognitive load on individuals compared to the traditional instruction. The difference in overall cognitive load between the two instruction groups was significant across both the density unit (t=2.66, p=0.009,df=89) and the aqueous solution unit (t=2.58,p=0.01,df=84).密度水溶液建模能力認知負荷densityaqueous solutionmodeling abilitycognitive load探討建模教學對於密度及水溶液概念的學習成效The Effectiveness of Modeling Instruction for Students in Learning Density and Aqueous Solution
