Abstract

This study aims to develop and examine students' conceptions of Work and Energy in relation to the Indonesian Capital City in East Kalimantan, using the Four-Tier Test of Work and Energy (FORTUNE) Open-Ended. The 4D methodology was followed, involving defining, designing, developing, and disseminating the research. The FORTUNE test, comprising 13 questions, was administered to 70 tenth-grade students (44 girls and 26 boys) aged 15 to 16. Rasch analysis was applied to categorize student responses into seven distinct categories: Sound Understanding (SU), Partial Positive (PP), Partial Neutral (P0), Partial Negative (PN), Misconception (MC), No Understanding (NU), and No Coding (NC). The results revealed that FORTUNE effectively diagnosed students' conceptions, with 61% of responses falling into the Misconception (MC) category, while only 3% were classified as Partial Positive (PP). Notably, students displayed misconceptions in questions of moderate difficulty, as indicated by Rasch analysis. In conclusion, this study successfully developed and implemented the FORTUNE Open-Ended test to assess students' conceptions of Work and Energy in the context of the Indonesian Capital City in East Kalimantan. The findings highlight the prevalence of misconceptions among students, particularly in questions of moderate difficulty. Addressing and rectifying these misconceptions require targeted instructional strategies to foster a deeper and more accurate understanding of the topic. Future research should explore the effectiveness of intervention programs aimed at enhancing students' conceptual understanding of Work and Energy.

Abstract

The research aims to develop a four-tier test for optical instrument materials. The method used in this study is a 4D design that includes defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The instrument used consisted of fifteen items in the form of a four-tier closed-ended test. The research participants were 60 female and 15 male students from West Java in grade 11 high school who were randomly selected. The analysis is divided into four parts. The first analysis is a CVR and multi-rater Rasch measurement of the original validation results. The second analysis involves calculating the percentage of students' scores based on their conception scores. The third is a Rasch Model analysis of the instrument's validity and reliability. The Rasch Model is used in the fourth analysis to examine conceptions and misconceptions. Following the analysis, all items met the CVR value criteria. I2, I7, I9, I10, I12, I15, and I3 have logit values less than zero and are corrected based on expert feedback. The second analysis reveals that students continue to have misconceptions about each item. According to the third analysis, all items were valid and reliable, with a Cronbach Alpha value 0.78 in either category. According to the fourth analysis, conception is inversely related to misconception. The fewer misconceptions, the better the students' conceptions, and vice versa. However, confidence can also be a dissonant influence. Students who experience misconceptions need to be given appropriate treatment to reduce misconceptions about optical instrument materials. Hopefully, the four-tier closed-ended test that has been developed can be used and developed into a better five-level test to investigate the causes of each student's misconceptions.

Abstract

Assessment in the form of an instrument is very important to test for validity and reliability so that it can measure student learning outcomes. We implemented a measurement instrument designed to assess students' understanding of elasticity. The measurement instrument consisted of 15 items. The instrument was administered to students who were taking physics subjects in senior high school in their second year. In total, 74 students were taken from two classes in Padang, Indonesia. In this study, the students' performance was collected as quantitative data and evaluated using the Rasch model. The results showed that the data matched the Rasch model measurements. Moreover, female students answered 53 percent of the questions better than male students. Furthermore, the DIF plot shows that S8 is the most difficult problem, while S14 is the easiest. There are two gender bias questions, namely S12 and S14. Both questions were easily solved by female students. However, all questions can be used to measure students' abilities in elasticity and Hooke's law. This study seeks to make a contribution to the literature on EMCI evaluations by offering a case study for academics and researchers to use in assessing students' elasticity skills

Abstract

This research aims to identify the conception of Central Javanese students on fluid pressure. The survey was conducted in Central Java involving 515 participants (eight grade students about 14 years old) consisting of 177 males and 338 females. The instrument consists of six questions in a four-tier format about fluid pressure and is distributed via Microsoft Form. The analysis was carried out with Rasch analysis and percentages with six categories of conceptions: CU (Conceptual Understanding); PP (Partial Plus); PM (Partial Minus); NU (No Understanding); MC (Misconception); and NC (No Coding). The Rasch analysis shows the Cronbach alpha is 0.68 (Enough) and the distribution of students' conceptions of fluid pressure forms a normal curve. Meanwhile, bias was not found for gender problems in answering the questions. The percentage of the result are: CU (17%), PP (4%), PM (39%), NU (13%), MC (27%), and NC (0%). This indicates that students' conceptions are still dominated by PM and MC categories. Students in the PM category have good characteristics but lack self-confidence. While the MC category is an unexpected result because students are confident in their answers that are wrong or not in accordance with scientific conceptions. Thus, further action is needed to overcome students' misconceptions.Keywords: Students' Conceptions, Fluid Pressure, Rasch Analysis

Abstract

Alternative conceptions become obstacles in physics. However, it is difficult to find instruments that can identify students' alternative conceptions, especially in gases kinetic theory (DIGaKiT). The purpose of this research was to development of diagnostic instrument of DIGaKiT in identifying students’ alternative conceptions by Rasch analysis model. The research method used the defining, designing, developing, and disseminating (4D). The samples are 31 students (12 male students and 19 female students, their ages were typically 16 years old) at one of the senior high schools at Belitung. Rasch analysis was used to identify the validity, reliability, and distribution of students' alternative conceptions. The result is that the level of validity and reliability of the instrument is in a good category. Meanwhile, alternative conceptions of the kinetic theory of gases can be identified in all questions, and the questions with the highest alternative conceptions are questions with code Q11 (77%) and the lowest are questions with codes Q1, Q5, and Q6 (4%). Therefore, teachers must design learning processes that can reduce students’ alternative conceptions of the kinetic theory of gases material.

Abstract

The increasingly difficult educational challenges and needs in today's modern world require interactive learning. The research was conducted to know students' critical thinking skills (CTS) in the kinetic gas theory material. Another goal is, as an initial observation, to develop learning methods with guided inquiry learning models assisted by android-based 3D modules in kinetic gas theory material. The research population was all class XI students at Tuban 2 Public High School in 2022/2023 as majoring in Mathematics and Natural Sciences. The research was conducted in 5 classes with the same distribution of questions and questionnaires. As secondary data, the researcher added several articles relevant to the research. The results of this study using several questions on kinetic gas theory material for class X1 were that students needed to be more able to answer each question with indicators of critical thinking. The student's obstacle in answering the questions lies in the need for more understanding of kinetic gas theory material and the not yet maximal use of the method in the current teaching and learning process. The resulting inquiry learning in the future will change the CTS of Tuban 2 Public High School students in the kinetic gas theory.

Abstract

Assessment and measurement have always been crucial topics, especially in physics education, where accurate evaluation is needed to measure students' understanding and mastery of the subject. This study tested the validity and reliability of physics measurement questions administered through the Quizizz platform and identified Differential Item-Person Functioning (DIPF) using the Rasch model-assisted Winstep software. This research design used Item Response Theory (IRT). The study involved 34 high school students from Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia. The instrument consisted of 15 multiple-choice questions on basic physics measurements. The results showed that the instrument had good construct validity, with a raw variance explained by the measurement of 22.8%, indicating an effective measure to gauge students' ability. Reliability analysis showed moderate consistency, with a Cronbach Alpha of 70%, although person and item reliabilities were weaker at 63% and 46%, respectively. DIF analysis showed no significant gender bias. Future research should improve the instrument's reliability and consider a broader range of external factors to understand student performance comprehensively.

Abstract

This study investigates students’ conceptions of hydrostatic pressure, aiming to identify misconceptions (MC) and differences in understanding based on gender. A quantitative method with a cross-sectional study approach was used as the design in this study to explore and measure characteristics involving 186 students with an average age of 17-18 years from three provinces in Indonesia. Data were obtained using a Four-Tier Test to explore students’ scientific understanding, MC, and ignorance of hydrostatic pressure. A gender-based differential item functioning (DIF) analysis was also conducted to evaluate any potential bias in concept understanding between male and female students. The results showed that MC about factors affecting hydrostatic pressure were prevalent among students, for example: i) believing that hydrostatic pressure is independent of depth; ii) thinking that fluid type does not affect it; and iii) assuming that gravity has no impact. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to address these fundamental MC. DIF analysis showed a significant variation in understanding between genders, where male students tended to show better results on several aspects of scientific conceptions (SCs). These results highlight the necessity for mapping students’ initial conceptions before teaching, to enable the development of targeted instructional strategies aimed at addressing MC and improving understanding of critical physics concepts such as hydrostatic pressure.
