Implications for Practice

To teach the concept of the cell and its organelles, an alternative teaching method is represented here. But, the study has a shortcoming in seeking the degree to which conceptual change is achieved. For this reason, further research should focus on applicability of the presented teaching design in a comparative manner. Since materials presented here are simple, actual and economic, using hand-on activities should be paid more attention.
