Description
Knowledge of solid-state physics, such as electrical and thermal conductivity, is very important due to its influence on the development of modern technologies. Although these phenomena appear in the curricula of elementary school, secondary school and universities, students have many incorrect ideas about them. In order to gain detailed insight into students' understanding, we have developed a concept inventory on microscopic models of electrical and thermal conductivity of solids (METCS). By applying the test to a sample of Croatian first-year university students, some already known incorrect ideas were confirmed and a large number of new ones were discovered.
