Abstract Taking "the evolution of atomic structure model" as an example, this paper used chemical history as situation to design questions, and students analyzed evidence, constructed and evaluated model, during which they realized the relationship between experimental evidences and modeling construction and understood the important role of model in the development of theory and its character of evaluation. This instructional design had significant effect on students' understanding of atomic models.
