Abstract

Problem-solving skills (PSS) are essential for students to face challenges in the 21st century. Based on PISA results, the PSS of Indonesian students are in a low category. Not only that, a few assessments of PSS have been developed. This study aims to analyze the quality of the ethnoscience-Quizizz test (EQT). The research method used is R&D with the ADDIE model. The data analysis technique was based on the Rasch analysis using the Ministep software. The item and person reliability are 0.9 (good) and 0.40. Cronbach’s alpha has a value of 0.53. The MNSQ-ZSTD infit-outfit score is in a suitable category. Each item is relatively accurate and do not have DIF. In addition, the EQT is suitable to measure students’ PSS because it has passed the criteria. The EQT incorporates indicators for problem-solving, making it appropriate for 21st-century learning with an ethnoscience “Kerapan Sapi” problem context. Future studies can use this problem-solving test to determine the profiles of students’ problem-solving abilities using Rasch analysis.

Abstract

Difficulties in understanding physics concepts are often experienced by students such as in the material of regular straight motion. This study aims to describe the mental models of first-year secondary school students on regular straight-line motion. This research utilized a case study method of 167 students at the secondary level with an average age of 16-17 years. The mental model test has been utilized form of essay questions The mental model test has been utilized form of essay questions with two sub-materials on the regular straight motion. The data were analyzed referring to the descriptive mental model assessment rubric in the related literature. The rubric maps the level of student understanding which is then categorized into scientific, synthetic, and initial mental model categories. The results stated that students' mental models were dominated in the initial category with respective percentages for both sub-categories of 60% and 90%. In addition, there are still terms of understanding that cannot be distinguished by students so it becomes one of the causes of their unscientific mental models. Based on these results, it is suggested that for further research, alternative teaching materials are needed that can have an impact on improving students' mental models.
