“…According to the results obtained from the research, it can be said that conducting experiments and preparing the semantic mappings of concepts have important contributions to the teaching, researching and associating of concepts. When the related literature was examined, it was found that semantic mappings of concepts and experiments were effective in concept teaching and that their results showed parallelism with the results of this study (Antonacci, 1991;Candan, 1998;Çepni & Ayvacı, 2006;Dilek & Yürük, 2013;Fitzgerald, Elmore, Kung & Stennen, 2017;Gödek, Polat & Kaya, 2018;Kesercioğlu, Balım, Öztürk & Çavaş, 2004;Lowe, Newcombe & Stumpers, 2012;Olympiou & Zacharias, 2012;Patrizi, Ice & Burgess, 2013;Reza & Azizah, 2019). According to the results of this research, it can be said that prospective science teachers have difficulties to prepare the semantic mappings.…”
