Abstract

In this study, the algorithmic problem solving processes related to the subject of chemical equilibrium of the 11th grade students is examined. This is a case study of qualitative research methods. 6 students studying in the 11th grade at an Anatolian High School located in Turkey's Central Anatolia were involved in the study. The data of the study were collected four weeks after studying the chemical equilibrium in the chemistry class of the 11th grade during the second semester of the 2014-2015 academic year. The data were collected by implementing face to face interviews while filling a form including four algorithmic questions related to chemical equilibrium. Students were given a directive on loud thinking before giving the questionnaire on algorithmic issue. Then the students were asked to solve the problems in the questionnaire of algorithmic questions as it was specified in the directive of loud thinking. Interviews were recorded using a voice recorder. The students' voice records and the papers with problem solving formed the data of the survey. The data is analyzed and interpreted under the four subjects of methods of descriptive analysis, where each question included identifying the concepts and relationships between the concepts, interpretation of variables/data, usage of formulas/equations, and usage of algorithms.
