Identifying students’ mental models of sound propagation: The role of conceptual blending in understanding conceptual change
We investigated introductory physics students’ mental models of sound propagation. We used a phenomenographic method to analyze the data in the study. In addition to the scientifically accepted Wave model, students used the “Entity” model to describe the propagation of sound. In this latter model so...
