Abstract This paper used flow chart method to probe senior high school students'cognitive structure about ethanol.The quantitative analysis of flow chart showed that there was a large difference in the individual students'cognitive structures on ethanol,and higher academic achievers were easily to establish the relationship between structure and property.Further,the results of the correlation analysis showed that students'performance were closely related to cognitive structure variables (such as extent,richness,misconceptions and information retrieval rate) and information processing strategies (such as describing and conditional reasoning),as well as higher academic achievers constructed more integrated cognitive structures.Ultimately,this paper put forward specific teaching suggestions for chemistry teachers in teaching ethanol.
