Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to examine the process of mental model construction while reading science text. This is done by bringing together three research traditions: conceptual change, text comprehension, and eye-tracking re- search. The results of our experimental pilot study show the usefulness of the eyetracking methodology in conceptual change research. This line of study can be beneficial for developing science texts and other learning materials. © 2008 Springer-Verlag US.
