Brenner's Model

Brenner’s Model explains how students learn science by progressing through three stages: constructing basic understanding through everyday experiences, connecting these concepts with scientific principles, and finally applying them in new contexts. It emphasizes that effective science learning involves building on prior knowledge, actively engaging in understanding relationships, and developing a deeper, transferable grasp of scientific ideas. This model highlights the importance of sequential learning steps to deepen comprehension and foster meaningful understanding of science concepts.
