Abstract

Reviewing student understanding can be done through the diagnostic assessment process. However, many teachers have difficulty in conducting assessments. Based on the results of the theoretical study, Rasch Model Analysis can make it easier for teachers to conduct diagnostic assessments. Rasch model analysis can be used to measure the effectiveness of items on test instruments, the level of ability of respondents, and detecting differences in ability and item bias. For those reason, researchers conducted a diagnostic assessment to 330 students in 10th grade from three different High Schools in Gorontalo City. The test results processed and analyzed using Rasch modeling. The results was described in this study with a Quantitative Descriptive approach. The purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of the test instrument in the diagnostic assessment process, the level of student understanding, and to determine whether there are differences in ability based on gender and school category. This research found that: 1) the test instrument has good validity and reliability; 2) Students' concept understanding ability was divided into: 6% very high, 25% high, 29% medium, 25% low and 15% very low. 3) There was a significant difference between students' understanding based on school origin criteria. The findings of this research are expected to serve as recommendations for future teachers and educational practitioners to integrate diagnostic measurement with the Rasch model in evaluating student understanding.

Abstract

This study analyzed the profiles of students’ concept mastery and scientific literacy on the topic of reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions in three senior high schools in North Gorontalo, Indonesia. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving written tests and interviews with 12th-grade students at SMAN 1, SMAN 3, and SMAN 6 North Gorontalo. The test instruments were designed based on the revised Bloom’s Taxonomy cognitive levels (C1–C6) and Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) scientific literacy dimensions (context, content, competence, attitude). Results indicate that students have moderate overall concept mastery, with highest performance on lower-order cognitive skills remembering (C1) and understanding (C2) but substantially lower performance on higher-order skills such as applying (C3), analyzing (C4), evaluating (C5), and creating (C6). In terms of scientific literacy, students performed best in the content knowledge dimension, while showing weaknesses in scientific attitudes. Specifically, around 59% of students could recall basic facts (C1), but only ~35% could tackle creation-based tasks (C6). Likewise, over 54% demonstrated understanding of scientific content, yet less than 47% exhibited strong scientific competencies or attitudes. These findings suggest that current teaching practices heavily emphasize rote learning of content, leading to decent factual knowledge but insufficient higher-order thinking and lack of engagement with science in real-life contexts. The study highlights the need for instructional innovations such as inquiry-based, problem-based, and context-oriented learning to strengthen students’ conceptual understanding at all cognitive levels and to foster scientific skills and attitudes.

Abstract

The ability of students to understand and use concepts is the main key in scientifically explaining various chemical phenomena in nature. This ability develops relatively, often with the development of the learner level. This study aims to understand the level of understanding of the concept of salt hydrolysis of class XI high school students and chemistry students in the I, II, III and IV years and non-chemistry students with a total sample of 875 respondents. The instrument used in this study was a four-level multiple choice test. This diagnostic test combines the measurement of knowledge and reasoning with the level of self-confidence, as a reflection of the level of mastery of concepts. The data analysis technique used is quantitative, using SPSS 25 software, namely the non-parametric test (Kruskal Wallis test), comparing the significance value (Asmp. Sig) with a probability of 0.005. The results showed that the significance value of 0.00 was less than 0.05; That is, there is a significant difference in the level of understanding of the salt hydrolysis concept of students. The level of understanding of the concept of high school students is better than the first, second, third, and fourth year students in chemistry and non-chemistry students. These findings reinforce the story that although students have experienced learning experiences at a higher level, it does not guarantee the development of mastery of understanding the concept of hydrolysis

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the critical thinking abilities of 12th grade students on the topic of atomic structure using a complex multiple-choice test instrument based on the Rasch Model. The research found that the instrument was valid and reliable in measuring students' critical thinking skills. The majority of students (75%) demonstrated adequate critical thinking abilities, while 25% faced difficulties, particularly with items measuring inference and explanation. Students performed better on questions related to interpretation and evaluation but struggled with questions that required them to draw conclusions and explain more complex scientific phenomena. These results indicated that while students had a solid understanding of the basic concepts of atomic structure, they needed more practice to improve their higher-order critical thinking skills. Small gender differences were observed, with male students performing slightly better on analysis and inference items, although these differences were not significant. Overall, the findings suggest that while students had a strong foundational knowledge, there is a need for reinforcement through more challenging questions and deeper critical thinking exercises to further develop their critical thinking abilities.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop a differentiated teaching module to enhance students' scientific argumentation skills on chemical bonding material. The method used was Research and Development (R&D) with the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate). Validation results from experts showed that the developed differentiated teaching module was highly valid (92% and 94%), very practical (100% and 97%), and effective, with more than 80% of students achieving the minimum competency standard (KKM) and an average score of 88. The improvement in scientific argumentation skills was reflected in the average pre-test score of 64, which increased to 80 in the post-test. Specifically, the indicators of scientific argumentation showed improvement: claims increased from 62.9% to 75.4%, data from 66.3% to 84%, warrants from 67.8% to 82.1%, and backings from 68.4% to 79.4%. The increase in scientific argumentation scores from pre-test to post-test indicates that the developed teaching module was effective in helping students hone their argumentative skills. However, the ability to formulate claims and backings still requires reinforcement, as they demand a more complex understanding. Nevertheless, this improvement suggests that the differentiated teaching module created and implemented can strengthen students' scientific argumentation skills in understanding chemical bonding material, making it recommended for broader application, especially in science education.

Abstract

This study investigates the mediating role of epistemic agency in the relationship between students’ perceptions of constructivist learning environments and their conceptual understanding in Indonesian chemistry classrooms. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was employed, integrating quantitative and qualitative approaches. In the quantitative phase, data were collected from 712 high school students across five schools using an adapted Constructivist Learning Environment Survey (CLES) and a three-tier diagnostic chemistry test. Rasch modeling confirmed the strong psychometric properties of the adapted CLES, while structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that epistemic agency significantly mediated the relationship between classroom environment perceptions and conceptual understanding. In the qualitative phase, thematic analysis of interviews with 12 selected students uncovered three dominant themes contributing to misconceptions: limited dialogic space, lack of contextualization, and teacher-dominated instruction. The integration of both data strands demonstrates that epistemic agency is not only influenced by pedagogical practices but also shaped by cultural norms. These findings extend the dual-path learning framework by embedding agency as a key mechanism for conceptual change. Pedagogically, the results underscore the need for dialogic, student-centered learning environments that promote active participation and reduce misconceptions. Policy-wise, the findings align with the OECD Learning Compass 2030 and Indonesia’s Merdeka Belajar curriculum, emphasizing the importance of agency-oriented strategies in achieving global education standards.

Abstract

Developing students’ critical thinking skills remains a major challenge in chemistry education, particularly in thermochemistry, which requires conceptual, symbolic, and quantitative reasoning. While STEM-integrated problem-based learning (PBL–STEM) has gained increasing attention, limited studies have examined how this instructional approach aligns with the cognitive structure of critical thinking. This study investigated the effect of the PBL–STEM model on students’ critical thinking skills in thermochemistry. A quasi-experimental design involving 64 tenth-grade students was employed. Participants were selected using purposive sampling and assigned to an experimental group and a control group. Critical thinking skills were measured using a 20-item essay test based on Facione’s framework. The instrument demonstrated high reliability (Cronbach’s α = 0.915) and strong content validity (CVI = 0.93). Data were analyzed using an independent-samples t-test. Results showed a significant difference between groups (t = 4.997, p < 0.05), with the experimental group achieving higher mean scores (M = 80.80) than the control group (M = 65.38). The effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.25) indicates a large instructional impact. These findings suggest that STEM-integrated PBL provides a cognitively aligned framework for fostering critical thinking in chemistry learning.
