“…Students often have difficulty describing water and processes in hidden or invisible parts of the water cycle (Ben‐Zvi Assaraf & Orion, 2005a, 2005b, 2010; Covitt, Gunckel, & Anderson, 2009). For example, many children conceive of groundwater as located in underground sewers, lakes, streams, or layers (Ben‐Zvi Assaraf & Orion, 2005a, 2005b, 2010; Covitt, Gunckel et al, 2009; Dickerson, Callahan, Van Sickel, & Hay, 2005; Dickerson & Dawkins, 2004; Dickerson, Penick, Dawkins, & Van Sickel, 2007). They hold inaccurate conceptions of the size and scale of aquifers, and view groundwater as a dead‐end in the hydrologic cycle (Ben‐Zvi Assaraf & Orion, 2005a, 2005b; Dickerson et al, 2005; Dickerson & Dawkins, 2004).…”
