Analysis of misconceptions by four tier tests in electrochemistry, case study on students of the chemistry education study program UIN Antasari Banjarmasin

Abstract

This study aims to determine misconceptions on electrochemistry on the students of Chemistry Education Study Program UIN Antasari. The qualitative descriptive approach in this study was used to identify student misconceptions using the four-tier test. There are four (4) test levels which include: (1) multiple-choice with C2-C6 level, (2) confidence rating of the answer beliefs, (3) reasons for the answers, and (4) confidence rating of the reasoning beliefs for the answers. The three criteria used in the level of misconception consist of high, medium and low criteria. The results show that the students of the Chemistry Education Study Program of UIN Antasari experience misconception with moderate criteria on all electrochemical concepts which include the concepts of species undergoing oxidation and reduction in both Voltaic and electrolysis cells. Student’s misconception about the direction of electron flow, the condition of electron flow during electrolysis, and cathodic protection of iron.

Student Misconception In Chemistry: A Systematic Literature Review

“…The misconception is the need for more ability of students to describe a submicroscopic representation of a phenomenon to distinguish the concepts of temperature and heat. Thermochemistry (Murniningsih et al, 2020) Indonesia…”

Pengembangan Four-Tier Multiple Choice Diagnostic Test untuk Mengetahui Tingkat Pemahaman Konsep Peserta Didik pada Materi Termokimia

“…Beberapa peneliti telah melakukan tes diagnostik pilihan ganda empat tingkat untuk beberapa pokok bahasan dalam pembelajaran kimia diantaranya pada materi ikatan kimia (Ritonga & Yasthophi, 2019;Yakubi & Hanum, 2017), kinetika kimia (Habiddin & Page, 2019), kesetimbangan kimia (Ardiansah et al, 2018), laju reaksi (Harahap & Novita, 2020), elektrokimia (Murniningsih et al, 2020). Maka dengan ini peneliti bermaksud untuk melakukan pengembangan Instrumen tes diagnostik pilihan ganda empat tingkat (four-tier) guna mengetahui tingkat pemahaman konsep siswa pada materi termokimia.…”

Penggunaan Two-Tier Multiple Choice Diagnostik Test untuk mengidentifikasi Miskonsepsi Siswa Kelas X SMAN 1 Tangerang Selatan Pada Materi Larutan Elektrolit dan Non Elektrolit

“…Miskonsepsi merupakan suatu pemahaman konsep yang ada dalam pikiran siswa dan diperoleh berdasarkan pengalamannya namun bertentangan dengan konsep ilmiah yang seharusnya [2]. Miskonsepsi tersebut dapat terjadi jika pemahaman konsep siswa tidak lengkap.…”
