We also surveyed 9 senior pre-service teachers’ understanding of the concept definitionsand appropriate examples. From the analysis of the textbooks, we found that the possibility of misunderstanding oflearners is high because of the broad definition concept and narrow list of examples. After confirming the differencesamong pre-service teachers’ understanding of the subject through questionnaires and interviews, they also debated fora need to an agreement on scientific concepts. The pre-service teachers recognized the meaning of socialconstructivism and the need for an agreement process in teaching science concepts. ,FZXPSET: pre-service science teacher, social constructivism, argument process, science concept, conductor,electrolyte,PSFB/BUJPOBM6OJWFSTJUZPG&EVDBUJPO
