Abstract
<em>This purpose of this study is to improve media of Socratic dialogue that has been developed by the previous researcher and to determine the effect of the Socratic dialogue in enhance understanding of heat concept. As a result of prior research, showed students still have a misconception. Data collected from one institution of high school in Malang City using pre and posttest. Student’s conceptual changes that occur previous, during, after will be analyzed based on pretest and posttest scores and rethinking sequence of used record Socratic dialogue media. To explore more in-depth, the researcher conducted interviews with students on this concept. This result showed Socratic dialogue media could help students be aware mistakes or students become convinced if their opinion is correct.

Highlights
Several studies reveal there are misconceptions related to the concept of heat
First, the misconception that heat is understood as a substance, possessed by high-temperature objects, which flows due to temperature differences (Alwan, 2011; Başer, 2006; Brookes & Etkina, 2015; Marcisz & Woien, 2010)
The results show a decrease in the number of students who experience misconceptions including (1) heat equal to temperature, (2) heat can increase the temperature or change the form of matter only
Summary
First , the misconception that heat is understood as a substance, possessed by high-temperature objects, which flows due to temperature differences (Alwan, 2011; Başer, 2006; Brookes & Etkina, 2015; Marcisz & Woien, 2010). Misconception at the same time indicates the assumption that heat is something that is stored or possessed by objects. The results of the preliminary research indicate that there is an assumption that heat moves from an object that has high internal energy to an object that has low internal energy. This assumption is not entirely wrong, but it is prone to cause misconceptions
