Abstract: (158 Views)

Carefully designed instructional strategies can reconstruct learners' incorrect cognitive models during the learning process. This reconstruction involves identifying and correcting misconceptions that may prevent accurate understanding of new concepts. Reconstructing the cognitive model, which entails conceptual change, encourages learners to adjust new mental models and create more scientific and accurate understanding and cognition.
