Abstract

The abstractness of the chemistry concept can be understood easily through chemistry learning using multiple representations. This article used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to review eleven articles published from 2012 to 2021 and focused on chemistry learning using various representations. The articles are systematically obtained from the online article database ERIC, Scopus, and SINTA. The purpose of a review is to give information to teachers and researchers in chemistry education about the definition of multiple representations, the influence of multiple representations on chemistry learning outcomes, and how to implement various representations in chemistry learning models or strategies. The review results showed that the definition of numerous representations referred to both three levels of chemical representation and the tetrahedral representation of chemistry. Also, it referred to the use of various media. The influence of multiple representations on chemistry learning outcomes included improving concept understanding, improving performance, reducing mental effort, improving self-efficacy, making better cognitive structures, improving mental models, and reducing misconceptions. Multiple representations have also been implemented in several learning models or strategies such as Inquiry, Inquiry 5E, Guided Inquiry, Problem Solving, Thinking, Aloud Pair Problem Solving (TAPPS), Problem Posing (PP), Cognitive Dissonance, and Multiple Representation Based Learning (MRL).
