Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the Common Knowledge Construction Model (CKCM) on the conceptual understanding of science teacher students about Radioactivity. CKCM was used. In order for the students to adapt the radioactivity subject, which they see as difficult and abstract, to daily life by knowledge structuring. This study was carried out with 48 students studying in the second year of science education at a public university in the western region. The research employed pretest-posttest control group random design. The Radioactivity Concept Test (RCT) with 2 phases consisting 23 multiple- choice items were used as data collection tools in the research. After the tests were applied as a pilot study to 124 students, it was used with the participants of the study after the necessary validity and reliability studies were carried out. The KR20 reliability coefficient obtained from the sample data was calculated as 0.74. In the study, experimental and control groups were formed by random assignment. While the traditional lecture method was applied to the control group, the CKCM was applied to the experimental group. When the concept test data were analyzed with the SPSS 24 package program, it was determined that the experimental group were more successful than the control group. determined that the increase in correct answers in the post-test of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group.
