W772482856 abstract "In recent years, research in students' conceptions about the physical world has revealedthat when children reach the age of schooling they have already developed their ownknowledge about the physical world which is sometimes rather different from theaccepted scientific knowledge taught in schools. This thesis aims at investigating possiblestructures of commonsense reasoning about reversibility related to processes of interest toScience presented by students from two age-groups, 13/14 year old and 16/17 year old.The study has a theoretical framework based upon the scientific view of reversibilitymainly related to Thermodynamics. It is also related to a conceptual, commonsense anddevelopmental perspective taken from the literature, where reversibility is connected withdifferent concepts such as causation, action, and conservation. Therefore, based upon thisframework some very basic questions were asked to students about a selected number ofphenomena.The empirical data was collected with the use of questionnaires. The sample consisted oftwo different age/instructional groups of students from England, Chile and Brazil. FactorAnalysis was used to analyse the quantitative data. The qualitative data was analysedusing a systemic network in which students' answers could be categorised.The main result of the quantitative analysis was a common three dimensional factor spaceof explanation for all groups with the dimensions relating to the ways in which theprocesses could be seen. They are respectively the contrast between 'can happen andcannot happen', 'needs an action and happens by itself, and 'has a goal and has no goal'.Phenomena can be located in this common space, but their position may vary for differentage/instructional groups and for groups from different countries. The results of thequalitative analysis give a more detailed description of the way students see thereversibility of the processes and lend support to the quantitative results." @default.
