Conceptual change research investigates the processes through which
learners substantially revise prior knowledge and acquire new
concepts. Tracing its heritage to paradigms and paradigm shifts
made famous by Thomas Kuhn, conceptual change research focuses on
understanding and explaining learning of the most the most
difficult and counter-intuitive concepts. Now in its second
edition, the International Handbook of Research on Conceptual
Change provides a comprehensive review of the conceptual change
movement and of the impressive research it has spawned on students'
difficulties in learning. In thirty-one new and updated chapters,
organized thematically and introduced by Stella Vosniadou, this
volume brings together detailed discussions of key theoretical and
methodological issues, the roots of conceptual change research, and
mechanisms of conceptual change and learner characteristics.
Combined with chapters that describe conceptual change research in
the fields of physics, astronomy, biology, medicine and health, and
history, this handbook presents writings on interdisciplinary
topics written for researchers and students across fields.
