Abstract

A concept is an idea. It helps to classify things in mind. Concepts are one of the key parts of the teaching-learning process. These are always related to learner academic success. Academic success always depends on a student’s clear concept. The study objective was to find the relationship between the concept formation teaching model and students’ academic success. An experimental study was conducted for a period of two months to determine the effect of this model on the academic success of the students. The study was concluded that students who instructed by this model scored significantly high than the students who instructed by a conventional way of teaching.  A retention test was also taken for the purpose of knowing the students’ retention levels. The study results of retention test showed that students retain their concepts for a longer period of time with accuracy. Removal of misconception and strengthening of precise and accurate concepts is only possible when teaching is based on conceptual learning. To substitute the procedural learning from conceptual learning, this model is helpful and proved to be significant in teaching-learning process. It is recommended to use this model to form and develop concepts.
