Alternative frameworks refer to students’ misconceptions which disrupt and hinder students learning process. These alternative frameworks are inconsistent with the concept used by scientists. Therefore, a conceptual change is needed to convert students’ alternative framework to scientific concept. E...

Respondents were divided into two groups comprising individuals or groups to answer the Open-ended Scientific Argumentation Test 1. Forty one students were purposely selected to undergo interviews and another 32 students with different mastery of scientific concepts from individual argumentation were also purposely selected to go through guided group argumentation.

Data were analyzed using constant comparative technique and triangulated to ensure validity and reliability. Results showed that students who were involved in group argumentations tended to construct more complex scientific arguments consisting of sub-microscopic and symbolic levels and had less alternative frameworks. Furthermore, these groups’ scientific argumentation scheme consisted of multiple representations with rebuttal element. Results also indicated that a majority of the students involved in guided group argumentation showed conceptual change.
