Sammendrag
This study aims to map what misconceptions students in lower secondary and upper secondary school possess concerning the carbon cycle. Data was gathered quantitatively using an anony- mous survey. Over 200 students from two lower secondary schools and one upper secondary school in the Stavanger region (Norway) completed the survey. Results from the survey show that students have misconceptions concerning the dissolution of carbon dioxide, carbon capture in the natural carbon cycle and differentiation of the carbon cycle from other environmental issues.
