abstract = {In this paper, a self-created analogy is presented based on comparing the
process of osmosis with a situation recreated in a train carriage. It was
implemented with upper-secondary education students at a secondary
school in Chiclana de la Frontera (Cádiz, Spain). To assess the progression
of the students’ models on osmosis, their activities during the implementation
were used. Their perceptions of the analogy and the strategy used
were analysed from their answers to a questionnaire using Likert-type and
open questions. A qualitative and quantitative analysis was carried out.
The results show that the analogy helps the initial models of osmosis
advance towards more complex models. The students value the analogy
positively. They explain it helped them develop scientific skills and attitudes
like teamwork. It is concluded that the analogy designed is
a valuable tool to bring students closer to the concept of osmosis,
although it needs to be integrated into teaching-learning sequences.},
