“…Common misconceptions about osmosis and diffusion include the beliefs that molecules move because they are seeking isolation (anthropomorphizing), molecules only move until isotonicity is reached and then stop moving, and osmosis occurs at a constant rate (Zuckerman, 1994;Odom and Kelly, 2001;Fisher et al, 2011;Artun and Coştu, 2013;Reinke et al, 2019). Despite many years of research into why students have developed these misunderstandings, and onging attempts to dispell them, these misunderstandings have persisted (Marek et al, 1994;Odom, 1995;Odom and Barrow, 1995;Odom and Barrow, 2007;Jensen et al, 1996;Sanger et al, 2001;Tekkaya, 2003;Fisher et al, 2011;Kramer and Myers, 2012;Reinke et al, 2019). Kramer and Myers (2012) suggested that the ways in which these concepts are taught can explain why students develop consistent misconceptions.…”
