Abstract

A mechanical wave is one of the Physics concepts related to everyday life. When the Authors interviewed some students at one of Gersik’s senior high schools, the Authors found that some students didn’t understand the concepts yet. Students thought that when a rope was moved up-down, the particles in the rope would be moved horizontally. The truth is that there was no movement of particles in the vibrated rope. Misconceptions must be detected immediately so as not to interfere with students' understanding of the following concepts. One way is by using a conception diagnostic test. The paper aims to report the composition of the five-step conception diagnostic test for Mechanical Wave concepts, its’ validity and reliability, and use it to identify students’ profile conception level in a Gresik’s senior high school. This study used ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model and data collection technique that used was developing of five-step question that passed through the validity and reliability stages. 13 questions were written and tested for their internal validity and 12 only questions declared valid 91.32%. The result of external validity in terms of a true fake (TF) and a wrong fake (WF) was 7.14% and 4.76% (valid as empirical content because of the TF and WF<10%). The conception diagnostic test was also valid as an empirical construct based on the Pearson Product Moment score because rab=0.575>rtable=0.4575 (significance level of 0.05), and 11 questions were finally declared valid and reliable. 40.40% of the 18 students for their profile conception level confirmed as Lack of Knowledge.

Abstract

During the Physics learning process, students often have difficulty in understanding the concepts, such as Electromagnetic Induction concepts. For example, students assumed that a loop in a magnetic field B whose coil plane area shrinks towards the page produces a constant induced electromotive force. However, the truth is when the surface area of the loop is reduced, the induced electromotive force produced gets smaller. This contradiction is called a misconception. This misconception should be detected immediately using a diagnostic test of conception, especially the five-level diagnostic test. This paper is intended to report the results of the writing of a five-level conception diagnostic test for Electromagnetic Induction concepts, to test its’ feasibility (validity and reliability) and to get an overview of the several students’ understanding level as well as to identify the most dominant internal factors that cause students' misconceptions on the concepts. A total of 11 questions on the diagnostic test is validated and reliable therefore it can be used to test students' understanding level. The results of the internal validity test are 92% (very valid) and the external content validity in terms of true fake and wrong fake values are 3.94% and 5.45%, the construct external validity (rxy=0.591) > rtable=0.3061 and the reliability [ r11=0.608 (very reliable)]. Among 14 students who were tested for their level of understanding 44.16% of them experienced a lack of knowledge.
