Abstract

The topic of electricity is one of the topics in the Advanced Physics course which has abstract dominant characteristics. The abstract nature of electrical material has the potential to be difficult to understand and has the potential for misunderstanding by students. The four-tier test is a type of test that can be used to identify student misconceptions. The research method used in this study is a quantitative descriptive research with a survey research type. The populations of this study were all first-year prospective elementary teacher students who took the advanced physics courses as many as 30 students. The sampling technique of this study used a saturated sample whose number is the same as that of the study population. The research instrument was in the form of a four-tier test related to electricity topics, totaling 20 questions and divided into the sub-topics of electric current, electromotive force and potential difference, resistance, energy and conductivity of electric current, dc electric circuits, and Kirchhoff's Laws. The characteristics of this four-tier test consist of four levels. The first level is a choice of answers by providing five choices. The second level is the level of the respondent's confidence in the answer choices. The third level is the choice of reasons for the answer chosen by the respondent. The fourth level is the level of confidence in the choice of reasons for the selected answer. Respondents' answer patterns were grouped into three categories, namely understanding the concept, not understanding, and misconceptions. The results showed that the percentage of students in the categories of not understanding concepts, understanding concepts, and misconceptions were respectively 49.65%, 29.38% and 20.97%. Overall, it can be concluded that the dominant first grade students do not understand the concept and some experience misconceptions. The findings of this study may have implications for efforts to improve debriefing in Advanced Physics lectures in the future so as to be able to reduce misconceptions and understand student concepts

Abstract

The cultivation of religious character is essential in shaping students who not only understand academic content but are also able to internalize and implement Islamic values in their daily lives. Accordingly, teachers are expected to produce human resources who are not only academically competent but also religiously grounded. This study aimed to develop a Newton’s Laws e-module integrated with Muhammadiyah values. The research employed a descriptive design to describe the validity of the developed e-module. The research instrument consisted of an expert validation sheet used to evaluate the Newton’s Laws e-module integrated with Muhammadiyah values. The validation findings demonstrate that the developed e-module meets the validity criteria and is considered appropriate for use in physics learning. All assessed indicators obtained Aiken’s V coefficients above the minimum validity standard of 0.75. Specifically, the coefficient values were 0.88 for curriculum and learning outcome alignment, 0.85 for the accuracy of Newton’s Laws content, 0.76 for the integration of Muhammadiyah values, 0.79 for media and visual design as well as learning features, and 0.87 for Indonesian language conventions. In addition to the quantitative results, the validators provided several recommendations to improve the quality of the e-module. These recommendations included strengthening student activity feedback, adding one relevant Qur’anic verse to each subtopic, revising the background color composition, and refining the feedback system embedded in the e-module. Considering these findings, subsequent studies may focus on developing an offline version of the Newton’s Laws e-module integrated with Muhammadiyah values to enable broader use in schools with limited internet access.
