IMPLEMENTASI PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS MULTI REPRESENTASI UNTUK PENINGKATAN PENGUASAAN KONSEP FISIKA KUANTUM
Abstract: Implementation of
Multiple-Representation-Based Instructions to Improve the Mastery of Quantum
Physics Concepts. This study aimed to design and investigate the role of
multiple-representation-based instructions in the improvement of student
teachers’ quantum physics mastery. This study used a quasi-experimental control
group pretest-posttest design as quantitative part of a mixed-methods study.
The subjects were student teachers of physics in the Department of Mathematics
and Science Education in a state university in Lampung Province in the
2009-2010 academic year. For assessing the quantum physics mastery, the Quantum
Physics Concept Achievement Test (QPCAT) was used. The quantitative analyses
were conducted using the Mann Whitney U test. The results showed that
multiple-representation-based instructions had a significant effect on student
teachers’ quantum physics concept mastery. The results of semi-structured
interviews as qualitative part of this study indicated that in the experimental
group the students used a variety of representation modes in the learning
process and were capable of using the most appropriate one to solve a given
quantum physics concept problem.
