Abstract

Indonesia is ranked 56th out of 65 participating countries in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) based on data 2015. According to PISA results, the average science score of Indonesian students is 403, where this number is categorized as low. This is because students are still in the process of understanding and have not yet fully recognized the location of their mistakes. Students can diagnose the location of their mistakes through self-diagnosis activities. Self-diagnosis activities require the active role of students during the learning process. One approach that can increase the active role of students is STEM (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics). However, research at this time is still rarely found self-diagnosis activities that are applied to the STEM approach. Therefore, this research has the aim to find out the increase in mastery of physical concepts and self-diagnosis of students on the STEM learning approach to the theory of poscal law class XI High School.This study uses a One-Group pretest-posttest design with a sample of 30 ini 11th grade highschool from one schools in Bandung. . Based on the findings, there is an increase in mastery of concepts [<g> = 0.51] from pre-test to post-test. In self-diagnosis activities identified that there are differences in scores [z = 1.75; p = 0.9599] student assessment results of researchers and self-scoring results. Deeper self-diagnosis triggers a series of implicit steps that encourage them to rearrange their cognition by correcting the mistakes they make when solving problems. So that learning activities using the STEM approach that involves self-diagnosis activities can improve students' mastery of concepts.

Highlights

  • Physics is a subject that consists of various concepts that can be felt in everyday life

  • According to the 2015 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) results report, the average science score of Indonesian students is 403, where Indonesia ranks 56th out of 65 participating countries or in other words Indonesia ranks ninth in the bottom of all PISA participating countries [2]

  • The treatment reported in this study was learning with the STEM Approach and self-diagnosis activities. in self-diagnosis activities, students conduct in-depth diagnoses and analyze their own pre-test answers

Summary

Introduction

Physics is a subject that consists of various concepts that can be felt in everyday life. The low education in Indonesia is the impact of the low mastery of students' concepts during the learning process. Failure of students to master a concept can be because students are still in the process of understanding and students have not fully recognized the location of their mistakes. One of the activities that can be about the whole location of students' mistakes is the activity (self-diagnosis). Self-diagnosis is an activity where students diagnose the solution of a problem that has been solved independently. In this activity students determine the location of the errors of their own solutions. Elementary activities contribute to learning activities by triggering a series of steps that encourage students to regulate their cognition and correct mistakes in an effort to master the concepts learned
