The learning of scientific concepts holds great importance, as it helps learners enhance their understanding of scientific subjects, tackle problems, and reduces the need for relearning when faced with a similar new situation. Scien-tific concepts also play a role in organizing experiences, constructing principles and generalizations, as they represent the mental structures that assist learners in identifying relationships between various facts. Learners, however, encounter difficulties in acquiring and properly un-derstanding these scientific concepts due to several factors. These include inad-equate teacher training, the nature of the concepts themselves, confusion be-tween the concepts and their verbal meanings, a lack of prior knowledge about the new concept, and the absence of feedback for learners. Additionally, there are internal factors related to the learner, such as a lack of motivation and read-iness to learn, as well as external factors like an unsuitable curriculum for the learners' level and the failure to employ appropriate teaching methods.
