The aim of this research is to determine the effects of 7E model to ensure misconceptions towards to scientific ideas and the effect of this change on the persistence about simple electrical circuits. The research was carried out on three different groups of the 11th grade students of Mamak Cagribey Anatolian High School in Ankara. In the research, to which pre and post-test with control group quasi-experimental design were applied, misconception test which consisting of three-tier questions was used as data collection tools. The lesson has been taught using 7E model based on constructivist approach in experimental group by the researcher, in control-I group, the course has been taught using direct instruction and question-answer method by the researcher and in control-II group the course has been taught using direct instruction and question-answer method by another physics teacher. According to the findings of the study, it is shown that 7E model has a significantly contribution to the to conceptual change and retention.
