The aim of this study was to show that some of the errors made by students when responding to mathematics assessment items can indicate progress in the development of conceptual understanding. By granting partial credit for specific incorrect responses by early secondary students, estimates of the difficulty of demonstrating full and partial knowledge of skills associated with the development of proportional reasoning were determined using Rasch analysis. The errors were confirmed as indicators of progress, and hence partial knowledge, when the thresholds of achievement followed a logical order: The greater the proficiency of the students, the more likely they were to receive a higher score. Consideration of this partial knowledge can enhance the descriptions of the likely behaviours of students at the various levels of learning progressions and this can be informative for teachers in their planning of learning activities.

The purpose of this writing is to analyze the hypothetical learning model as a progressive education on physics learning. This writing is based on the lack of precise and less varied selection of learning models in learning activities in the classroom, especially physics lessons. The method used is the study of literature by reviewing some literature for analysis and then drawing conclusions. The Deductive Hypothesis Learning Model is a learning model that in its activities begins by exploring the general knowledge or initial knowledge of the student on what to learn. The deductive hypothesis learning model is process-oriented that can develop students' basic skills, especially students' science process skills. The results of literature studies from several reliable references, that hypothetical learning models included in education are progressive in physics learning where students experience and discover for themselves material concepts as well as hooking in social life

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of experiential learning activity in deep conceptual understanding of science in comparison with conventional teaching model. In the present experiment quasi experimental and post-test research design is implemented. Totally 80 students participate in the study: 40 girls and 40 boys. The sample is categorized into two: study and the control group. Each group consists of 40 students: 20 boys and 20 girls. The study group is taught “Gases Law” by using experiential learning activities and the control is taught by using the conventional method. Data is collected by using a questionnaire and it consists of 20 multiple choice questions. The collected data is analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The examination of the data illustrates that there is no noteworthy difference in the mean score between the study group and the control group. Independent ‘t-test’ is applied to compare the student’s achievement in post-test. The mean score of the study group, who are exposed to the experiential learning activities, in Science Achievement post-test is 17.35. It is higher than that of (t=6.65; p>0.01) the learners in the control group. The mean of the control group is 14.45. Therefore, it is concluded that the experiential learning activities as a teaching model enhances the deep conceptual understanding of science.

Abstract: In physics learning a learning is needed which in addition to increasing understanding of concepts can also improve students' self-efficacy, one by one using the PBL model with scaffolding. With scaffolding, educators can provide assistance in stages to students who experience difficulties in learning. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of PBL-based physics learning and scaffolding on understanding concepts and self efficacy. This type of research is the Quasy experiment using a non equivalent control group design. The research was conducted at one of the high schools in Bandar Lampung. The sampling technique is purposive sampling. The instrument used to measure understanding of the concept is a three-tier diagnostic test consisting of 10 questions, while the instrument for measuring self-efficacy is the observation sheet. From this study, the results showed that PBL-based physics learning with scaffolding was effective against the understanding of concepts and the self-efficacy of students. The value of the effect size obtained is 1.29 with a high category.Abstrak: Dalam pembelajaran fisika dibutuhkan suatu pembelajaran yang selain dapat meningkatkan pemahaman konsep juga dapat meningkatkan self efficacy peserta didik, salah satungan dengan menggunakan model PBL dengan scaffolding.

This study aims to produce a learning device in the form of a physics module based on SETS that is valid and practical to improve students' conceptual understanding. The type used in this research is Research and Development (R&D). Subjects of this study were teacher and students of class XI MIA 1 with a total of 31 subjects. The research procedure  is the 4-D model, namely define, design, develop, and disseminate. Due to time and cost limitations, this  research is limited to the develop stage. The research instrument used was a validity questionnaire, practicality, and a description of the conceptual understanding. Furthermore, data obtained were analyzed to see the validity and practicality of the module as well as an assessment of students' conceptual understanding of dynamic fluid material. The level of understanding of students' concepts is seen from the aspects of interpretation, exemplifying, explaining, and comparing. The results showed that the physics module based on the SETS developed was categorized as very valid with an average of 82.16 and in the very practical category with a percentage of 84.29. Then for understanding the concept of students obtained a score of 94.67 in the interpretation  aspect,  86.98 in the exemplary aspect, then 81.10 and 86.61 respectively for the aspects of explaining and comparing. Learning using a physics module based on SETS is very good to be applied in order to improve students' conceptual understanding of dynamic fluid material. This was proven by the increase in students' understanding of concepts in every physics learning meeting on dynamic fluid material.

Research in the past decades repeatedly revealed university students’ struggles to properly understand physical chemistry concepts. In contrast to school, tertiary teaching relies heavily on the symbolic level, mainly applying abstract representations such as equations and diagrams. To follow the lessons and generate conceptual understanding, students need to connect those representations with macroscopic and submicroscopic aspects of the scientific concept depicted. For German first-year chemistry students, this increase in abstraction in a major subject of study contributes to excessive demand and demotivation (especially during out-of-class learning) and increases the risk of early dropouts. We designed a simulation-based learning environment (BIRC: Bridging Imagination and Representation in Chemistry) to suit the needs of first-year students and support them when learning physical chemistry at home. Our approach, featuring molecular dynamics simulations, requires students to assess their own mental models on the submicroscopic level and connect them to equations and diagrams on the symbolic level. Prior studies did already highlight the potential of individual BIRC learning units to foster conceptual understanding on specific topics. In this paper, we investigate if and how students of a broader sample use these learning activities as voluntary supplement beside regular coursework. During the term, we used think-aloud protocols, interviews and eight online questionnaires to analyse students’ mental and emotional interaction while working on BIRC, assessing whether students perceived BIRC as a suitable, enjoyable and supportive resource to enhance learning. Via two paper & pencil achievement tests we examined students’ retention concerning submicroscopic mental models and their ability to connect these mental models with symbolic representations 5–10 weeks later. Our findings indicate a cognitively engaging, comparably enjoyable learning process, which strengthens conceptual understanding and – despite the necessary time and effort – induces a broad number of students to voluntarily work on several units at home.
