Supporting the Understanding and Memorization of Advanced Chemistry Concepts in Third-Year Junior High School Students through Narrative Techniques

The applications of Science Communication (SciComm) can support teaching by making it more productive by engaging the audience"s interest. One tool of SciComm is the narrative technique, which has tangible results. If designed appropriately, it can assist in a fuller understanding of concepts and in their memorization. In this section of our research, we studied the effectiveness of four narrative approaches to advanced Chemistry concepts in twenty 3rd-year Junior High School students at a Model Junior High School. The students were divided into two groups. Subsequently, the techniques were alternately applied, and the results were compared regarding both the understanding of the thematic subject and the duration of the educational imprint. Statistically significant positive results were confirmed.

Abstract

The applications of Science Communication (SciComm) can support teaching by making it more productive by engaging the audience"s interest. One tool of SciComm is the narrative technique, which has tangible results. If designed appropriately, it can assist in a fuller understanding of concepts and in their memorization. In this section of our research, we studied the effectiveness of four narrative approaches to advanced Chemistry concepts in twenty 3rd-year Junior High School students at a Model Junior High School. The students were divided into two groups. Subsequently, the techniques were alternately applied, and the results were compared regarding both the understanding of the thematic subject and the duration of the educational imprint. Statistically significant positive results were confirmed.
