The paper Knowledge in shadow - misconceptions related to light phenomena
that are retained in spite of education by Gordana Miščević, Sanja Blagdanić and
Marija Bošnjak Stepanović emphasizes the need to point out the importance of
initiating science education at an early age. In both children and adults, knowledge
related to natural phenomena is created through interaction with the environment
and through social interaction (with adults and peers), as well as through formal
and informal learning situations. The aim of this research is to identify the
frequency of various misconceptions related to light phenomena in fourth-grade
students and primary school class teachers. Findings of this research reveal that
the majority of students show a misconception related to the apparent change of
the Sun’s position during daylight. Teachers mostly show no dilemma regarding
shadow shape, and the same holds true for approximately two thirds of students.
Additional findings... are presented and discussed in the paper. Teachers should
have an insight into the most frequent and typical misconceptions of students
in order to identify them and react to them adequately. One of the main roles
of the educational system is to identify these misconceptions and help students
overcome them
