“…It has been concluded in the theses about the sound that students/teacher candidates and even teachers have various misconceptions/concept errors or confusions and some of them cannot be eliminated even with the contemporary approaches that have been tried (Aygun, & Hacioglu, 2022). The conceptual outcomes that are described in this study have reflected differences between both individuals and differences within individuals.…”

“…In this case, it is seen that the underlying reasons for the difficulties experienced by students, teachers, or teacher candidates are not clear. Therefore, studies should be done to investigate and clarify this issue (Aygun, & Hacioglu, 2022). The purpose of this study is to study the misconceptions of sound propagations among Science students in the Faculty of Education.…”

The Objective of this study is to identify misconceptions of sound propagation which students often encounter when asked. Generally, sound is a form of energy: the branch of physics that is concerned with this form of energy is acoustics. In particular, the study focused on the area of sound and misconceptions held by group of science students. In addition, through the use of interview method, the researchers identify students' understanding about sound and sound propagation. There are 4 participants of science students Faculty of Education University Teknologi Mara (UiTM). Two of the participants are bachelor of education science in (Chemistry) and another two participants are bachelor of education science in (Physics) as the sample in this research. All of the participants have the basic knowledge on concept of sound. The approach for this study is phenomenography. In general terms, phenomenography is the study of qualitatively different ways in which people conceptualization various aspect of reality and phenomena. The findings showed that the participants have poor understanding and have many misconceptions on the concept of sound propagation. For the conclusion, it is evidences that the participants possessed misconceptions in sound propagation. So that, misconception issue must be called as serious learning obstructions in learning physics and have to be address if the objective of physics education is to be achieved successfully. Research recommended for teaching and learning for sound propagation, teacher need to aware although, student do not necessarily construct the same conceptual relationship for specific phenomena in different contexts.

The current study aims to contribute to closing this gap in the literature by making a thematic content analysis. In this study, which was conducted to examine the studies on misconceptions in science education in Turkey by thematic content analysis according to their type, year, method, sample, sampling method, data collection tools, and topics, a total of 346 studies published between 2000–2022 and accessed through the YÖK Thesis Center, ERIC, and Google Scholar were analyzed. As a result of the research, it was determined that most of the studies on misconceptions in science education in Turkey were published in 2011 in the forms of articles, they mainly used the survey method, they were conducted generally at the primary education level, the most frequently used sampling method was convenience sampling, and they often utilized concept tests as data collection tools. In terms of the preferred topics, it was found that most studies aimed to detect misconceptions. It is a well-known fact that misconceptions prevent science learning. Although it is favorable that a substantial number of studies on misconceptions are conducted in Turkey, the fact that the vast majority of these studies are about detecting misconceptions is thought-provoking since it is equally important to determine the causes of misconceptions and to try to eliminate them. In addition, based on the conclusion that quantitative methods are mostly used in the studies analyzed, it is essential to increase the number of qualitative studies to gain in-depth information about misconceptions.
