Abstract

This study aims to identify the misconceptions of a prospective chemistry teacher. The study population was all students of the Chemistry Study Program at the University of Riau, while the sample was 66 students at the Chemistry Study Program at the University of Riau, selected by cluster random sampling technique. Conception data of chemistry teacher candidates on acid-base subjects have been identified and obtained by providing valid acid-base TTT diagnostic tests to chemistry teachers candidates. The result of this research showed that chemistry teacher candidate who experienced misconception on acid-base subject were 66.5% from 4 main concepts studied, namely acid and base concepts (51.15%), pH and pOH concepts and their calculations (79.06%), the concept of acid-base dissociation degree (75.43%), and the concept of acid-base titration and indicator (58.13%). The study also revealed that some students have difficulties in performing mathematical operations using logarithms.

Abstract

This study is a part of the development study of stoichiometric HOTS problems. This study aimed to develop the stoichiometry Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) test instrument.  The stages of the study started with analyzing the material on the stoichiometry topic. The test consisted of 10 multiple-choice questions with 5 answer options. The instrument test was assessed by two chemistry education experts before being administered to 26 high school students in Pekanbaru city.  The test results were analyzed with the Rasch Measurement Model (RMM) using the Win Step software. RMM was useful to investigate item validity, item and person reliability, and item-person map. All of these criteria were useful in improving the quality of the instrument based on Item Response Theory. The results showed that almost all items were valid, except for the Q16 items. Thus, these nine items could be used as higher-order thinking test instruments for a larger sample.
