Abstract: Analysis of primary school students’ conceptual understanding shows that students are able to explain the conception of greenhouse effect with similar diction on written test. Therefore, the research aims to obtain an accurate students’ conception related to greenhouse effect by seeing sub-microscopic representation level. The research was a descriptive study which involved 87 primary school students aged 10-12 in one of urban educational areas in West Java. The instrument was an open essay which asked students to draw and describe the greenhouse effect. Students’ drawings were analysed by using modified framework from Kose (2008). The result shows that 13.80% of primary school students have a comprehensive representation of greenhouse effect. It is dominated by the visual explanation. Meanwhile, 86.20% of primary school students have misconceptions of greenhouse effect. These misconceptions are supported by verbal explanation dominantly. Furthermore, misconceptions are the greenhous e effect caused by great number of buildings made of glasses, depletion of ozone layer, ozone layer leaks, and hot haze that is produced by organic and inorganic combustion. The investigation indicates that the conception is influenced by students’ prior knowledge and several teachers’ analogies related to greenhouse effect. Teachers’ analogies make a cognitive conflict for students. (More)
