Learning Trajectories for Constructing Mechanistic Explanations and the Role Played by Epistemic Knowledge
Explaining scientific phenomena by unpacking their underlying mechanisms poses many challenges for high‐school students. One central challenge is synthesizing the different parts of a mechanism into a coherent whole and identifying what information is still missing, or whether further learning is required. This study investigates how high‐school students learn about mechanisms while constructing mechanistic explanations in biology. Using the lens…
