| Abstract | This is the first of two papers which seeks to identify some of the issues associated with the role of models in scientific explanations. Starting from a broad definition, a typology of explanations is developed and the notion of 'appropriateness' in scientific explanations is explored. Some characteristics of explanations sought and provided for and by scientists, science curricula, teachers of science and students of science are identified. Finally, the nature of models and their contribution to explanations are explored. In Part 2 (Gilbert et al. 1998), the understandings generated from provided explanations are discussed, together with an appraisal of those explanations which are not commonly sought or attempted. |

| AbstractList | Seeks to identify some of the issues associated with the role of models in scientific explanations. Develops a typology of explanations and explores the notion of appropriateness in scientific explanations. Investigates the nature of models and their contribution to explanations. (DDR) This is the first of two papers which seeks to identify some of the issues associated with the role of models in scientific explanations. Starting from a broad definition, a typology of explanations is developed and the notion of 'appropriateness' in scientific explanations is explored. Some characteristics of explanations sought and provided for and by scientists, science curricula, teachers of science and students of science are identified. Finally, the nature of models and their contribution to explanations are explored. In Part 2 (Gilbert et al. 1998), the understandings generated from provided explanations are discussed, together with an appraisal of those explanations which are not commonly sought or attempted. |
