초록

This study surveyed the elementary school teachers’ use of visual representations and their perceptions of the functions of visual representations in the teaching of electricity unit. A total of 110 elementary teachers who have experiences in teaching electricity unit responded to online survey. The result showed firstly that most of the teachers use visual representations in their teaching and it is mostly limited to those presented in textbooks or images that they can get easily from internet search. Secondly, elementary teachers thought that they have high ability in using visual representations and low ability in understanding students’ visual presentation ability. Thirdly, visual representations are more often preferred to be used as teacher-centered ways than student-centered ways for motivating students and conceptual understanding. However, in case of scientific inquiry, both teacher-centered and student-centered ways were equally preferred. Lastly, the teachers’ perceptions of the functions of visual representations were categorized into ‘teaching-instrumental function’, ‘learning-instrumental function’, ‘communicative-instrumental function’ and 8 subcategories were found. The most frequent function was the ‘information delivery function’ in the ‘teaching-instrumental function’ category. Implications for teacher education and further studies were discussed.

Abstract

This study surveyed the elementary school teachers’ use of visual representations and their perceptions of the functions of visual representations in the teaching of electricity unit. A total of 110 elementary teachers who have experiences in teaching electricity unit responded to online survey. The result showed firstly that most of the teachers use visual representations in their teaching and it is mostly limited to those presented in textbooks or images that they can get easily from internet search. Secondly, elementary teachers thought that they have high ability in using visual representations and low ability in understanding students’ visual presentation ability. Thirdly, visual representations are more often preferred to be used as teacher-centered ways than student-centered ways for motivating students and conceptual understanding. However, in case of scientific inquiry, both teacher-centered and student-centered ways were equally preferred. Lastly, the teachers’ perceptions of the functions of visual representations were categorized into ‘teaching-instrumental function’, ‘learning-instrumental function’, ‘communicative-instrumental function’ and 8 subcategories were found. The most frequent function was the ‘information delivery function’ in the ‘teaching-instrumental function’ category. Implications for teacher education and further studies were discussed.
