Students’ Representation Ability in Chemistry

Abstract

<jats:p>This study aimed to determine the representation ability of students in learning chemistry. The ability of representation consists of three levels, namely macroscopic level, submicroscopic level, and symbolic level. This study was a descriptive study. The subjects in this study were 53 XI grade students. The study instrument was in the form of a description test compiled based on indicators of representation ability. The results showed that the average score of students’ representation ability at the macroscopic level is 66.94, and is in the good category. The average score of students’ representation ability at the submicroscopic level is 47.17, and is in the medium category. The average score of students’ representation ability at the symbolic level is 64.30, and is in the good category.</jats:p>

The Effect of Couple Support and Mental Attitude on the Economic Recovery of Salted Fish Traders at Lamekongga Kolaka Market Post COVID-19 PPKM

“…Attention either spontaneously or intentionally is a form of psychological support for couples to live life to be more focused, measurable, and progressive. This concept cannot be separated from the educational conditions of the spouse, education which plays a role in the pattern of thinking certainly plays an important role in future life from the educational process (Ahmar et al, 2020).

The Effect Spouse Support and Mental Attitude on The Trade-fish Economic Recovery

“…A conscious effort is made to fulfill the necessities of life. Self-confidence will form the ability to think representatively, more creatively, and forward-thinking (Ahmar et al, 2020). So the aspect of self-confidence is the belief in oneself to think creatively and think ahead in entrepreneurship.…”

The Effectiveness of the EIGER Learning Strategy in Promoting Students’ Conceptual and Algorithmic Understanding of Stoichiometry

“…An example of the symbolic representation of a reaction is the equation of the reaction AgNO3(aq) + AgCl(aq) → NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s). The three levels of representation above mentioned are interconnected and contribute greatly to students in building definitions and conceptual understanding (Ahmar et al, 2020;Johnstone, 1991). If students understand the roles of the three levels of representation above, it is expected that they can transfer their knowledge by making a connection of those three levels of representation.…”
