Pemetaan Model Mental Mahasiswa pada Mata Kuliah Fisika

Abstract

This study aims to look at the mental model of D3 Computer Engineering students in Physics courses. The diversity of majors from students in secondary schools is one reason this research was conducted. This diversity forms a student's mental model of heat transfer material. The research subjects consisted of 30 students of D3 Computer Engineering students in the academic year 2018/2019. The research was conducted for 4 weeks from March 2018 to May 2018. The data collection was carried out by looking at the results of the study and from the results of interviews with representatives of 10 students who were considered to represent. The results showed that most students have not been able to explain the heat transfer microscopically. The concepts put forward by students at the time of the interview were still ambiguous based on prior learning experiences.
