Abstract

Stoichiometry is the basic of chemical calculations. However, students' understanding of the material is still poor. The characteristics of the material consist of abstract concepts, calculations, and related with other materials. That can cause misconception. The instrument to analyze misconceptions and the cause of student’s misconceptions is still rare. This study aims to determine the feasibility of the five-tier multiple choice (5TMC) instrument and analyze misconceptions and the causes of misconceptions. The instrument was developed using the 4-D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Dissemination). This research was conducted with 103 respondents. Data was obtained from questionnaires, interviews, and tests. Content validity used the Aiken method with 5 experts. This research also used the Rasch Model to analyze the reliability and validity of the instrument. The research concluded that the five-tier multiple choice (5TMC) instrument developed was feasible and the criteria were good based on Aiken validity, Rasch model, and response questionnaire. Misconception was found in 2nd students as moderate (38,09%) and 4th students as low (24,94%). Personal thinking is the factor that most influences misconceptions. This instrument can be used as an alternative for analyzing student’s misconceptions so that lecturers can take remediation

Abstract

This study integrates local wisdom as a basis for developing contextual chemistry education in the Ciayumajakuning region, Indonesia. Using the Model of Educational Reconstruction (MER) as its theoretical framework and an ethnographic approach to deeply explore cultural values, the research aims to identify potential local wisdom practices and map the scientific structure embedded within them. Through surveys, direct observations, interviews, and literature reviews, three local wisdom contexts—peuyeum ketan, jamasan keris, and the production of traditional Majalengka roof tiles—were identified and analyzed. The findings reveal that each context encompasses fundamental chemical concepts such as fermentation reactions, redox processes, thermochemistry, kinetics, and atomic and mineral structure. In-depth analysis uncovers a close interrelationship between cultural practices and chemical principles, thereby opening opportunities for the development of teaching materials and instructional models that are not only scientifically accurate but also culturally relevant. These results are expected to enhance students' interest in and understanding of chemistry through a meaningful contextual approach.
