In Physics learning, the misconception is often experienced by students, including on Dynamic Fluid materials namely Continuity. This study aims to identify misconceptions that occur in the subject matter of the Continuity and identify the concept's weakness as the cause of the misconception. The study was conducted on 37 students in one high school in Bandung with one shoot research method. The diagnosis of student misconceptions is made using a four-tier diagnostic test instrument which is the development of a three-tier test instrument by adding a confidence level to the third tier. The results of the diagnosis showed that students who experienced misconceptions of 28%, students who understand some 35%, students who understand the concept only 6%, students who do not understand the concept of 30% and students who cannot be coded 0%. Based on the results of the observation on the learning process and the analysis on the third and fourth tier answers, misconception that occurs is generally due to the student's inappropriate logic that students assume that the fluid has a large speed has a large fluid pressure, and fluid has a small speed has a small fluid pressure. Keywords: Misconception, Continuity, Four-Tier Diagnostic Test AbstrakDalam pembelajaran Fisika, tidak jarang ditemukan adanya miskonsepsi yang dialami oleh siswa, termasuk pada sub-materi Fluida Dinamis yaitu Azas Kontinuitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi miskonsepsi yang terjadi pada materi ajar Azas Kontinuitas serta mengidentifikasi kelemahan konsep sebagai penyebab terjadinya miskonsepsi tersebut. Penelitian dilakukan terhadap 37 siswa di salah satu SMA di kota Bandung dengan metode penelitian one shoot research. Diagnosis miskonsepsi siswa dilakukan menggunakan instrumen four-tier diagnostic test yang merupakan pengembangan instrumen three-tier test dengan menambahkan tingkat keyakinan jawaban pada tier ketiga. Hasil diagnosis menunjukkan bahwa siswa mengalami miskonsepsi pada sub-materi Azas Kontinuitas sebesar 28%, siswa yang paham sebagian 35%, siswa yang paham konsep hanya 6%, siswa yang tidak paham konsep sebesar 30% dan siswa yang tidak dapat dikoekan 0%. Berdasarkan hasil observasi dalam pembelajaran dan anlisis pada jawaban tier ketiga dan keempat, miskonsepsi yang terjadi umumnya disebabkan logika siswa yang kurang tepat yaitu siswa beranggapan bahwa fluida yang memiliki kelajuan besar memiliki tekanan fluida yang besar, begitupun sebaliknya.

We constructed Interactive Conceptual Instruction (ICI) model through PDEODE*E tasks (stands for Predict, Discuss, Explain, Observe, Discuss, Explore*, and Explain) for promoting the pre-service physics teachers" understanding on magnetic field. The ICI model consists of four phases; 1) Conceptual focus 2) Use of texts 3) Research-based materials (PDEODE*E tasks) 4) Classroom interactions. The ICI of teaching model has been implemented to seven Physics students who were re-taking (take the course for second times) in the Basic Physics II course as a pilot study. A Field Conceptual Change Inventory (FCCI) comprised of 15 three-tier test items was administered to seven pre-service physics teachers. Students" ideas were elicited by using FCCI and students" worksheets regarding PDEODE*E tasks. The test and worksheet were analyzed in qualitative way. An analysis of collected data has mainly focused on magnetic field conceptions with its subordinate concepts such as magnetic interaction in variety of mediums, magnetic swing (Lorentz law) and rotating magnetic field (Eddy"s current). This study concluded that the students' conceptual understanding of the magnetic field increases but a few misconceptions still occurred in seven students" minds.
