  1. MESSING WITH THEIR HEADS Using Discrepant Events to Arouse Interest and Combat Misconceptions

  2. What is a discrepant event? A discrepant event causes a discrepancy in what is physically observed and what the observer thinks should happen.

  3. How do I do a discrepant event? • The Set Up • The Event • The Explanation

  4. Essential Elements of Discrepant Events • Arouse your students interest -a story, a challenge, etc… • Use simple materials • Use multiple gateways -demonstrate, pick a volunteer, involve students in a related activity • Include examples • Show joy and enthusiasm

  5. Why do a discrepant event? • What students know is true is not what they witness, creating cognitive dissonance • Cognitive dissonance makes the student wonder opening their minds to alternative explanations

  6. When do I use discrepant events? • To engage students in learning about a concept, issue, or skill. • To create an opportunity to unlearn a predetermined misconception.

  7. Can you prove that it works? Positive influence on content achievement because of student motivation. • Suchman, J.R., “Inquiry Training in the Elementary School”, THE SCIENCE TEACHER, Vol. 27, Nov. 1960.

  10. Your Journal Entry In what part or parts of the 5E model would you create cognitive dissonance to battle a misconception? Explain why you chose this part of the 5E model.
