Conceptual Understanding
Concepts are ideas about what categories represent, or
said another way, how we group objects, events, and
characteristics on the basis of common properties.
Concepts help us:
(cid:131) simplify and summarize information
(cid:131) generalize to new situations
(cid:131) aid the process of remembering
(cid:131) communicate more efficiently
Teaching Concepts: The rule-
example strategy
(cid:131) Define the concept – identify its key features
(cid:131) Clarify terms in the definition – make sure the
key features or characteristics are understood
(cid:131) Give examples (and non-examples as well)
(cid:131) Provide additional examples – involve
students in generating more examples and
have them explain their selections

Prototype Matching
Prototypes: There are more typical examples
of a concept
e.g., a robin flies, builds a nest in a tree, has a bird
song, is a typical bird size
a penguin has none of these features
e.g., Lassie is a prototypic dog because she has
qualities (like size, shape, bark) representative of
dogs in general
a Chihuahua does not
Promoting Concept Formation
(cid:131) Use the rule-example strategy
(cid:131) Help students learn what a concept is and what
(cid:131) Provide clear, concrete examples
(cid:131) Relate new concepts to already-known
it is not
concepts
(cid:131) Create concepts maps
(cid:131) Generate hypotheses about concepts
(cid:131) Prototype matching
(cid:131) Check for understanding and generalization
Hypothesis-Testing
Hypotheses are specific assumptions and
predictions that can be tested
Thinking
…involves manipulating and transforming
information in memory
…involves
(cid:131) Reasoning
(cid:131) Thinking critically
(cid:131) Decision making
(cid:131) Thinking creatively
