In order to understand why a teaching methodology such as Modeling Instruction in High School Physics might be demonstrating gains in conceptual understanding and problem solving on the part of the students one must review cognition-based research. This article will review the pertinent literature investigating the differences in problem-solving and knowledge structure organization between experts and novices. In addition, lab and classroom based problem-solving studies will be reviewed. The pertinent literature will then be compared with the basic tenets of modeling instruction.
