Determinants Factors Analysis of Indonesian Students� Physics Achievement in Timss 2011

Abstract

This study aimed to find the structure of the theoretical model that can illustrate the achievements of Indonesian students in the field of physics. This study also examines the variables that directly or indirectly influence the physics achievement of Indonesian students. The data in this study are data of TIMSS 2011 on physics test with population involved were 4572 Indonesian students grade 8. This research used path analysis from LISREL 8.30. The physics achievement model of Indonesian students based on TIMSS 2011 results are as follows: (1) physics achievement is directly influenced by self-confidence, interest in learning, and students 'attitudes toward the importance of physics; (2) physics achievement indirectly influenced by students' involvement in physics learning indicated from their interest and confidence in physics learning; (3) attitudes toward the importance of physics have an indirectly positive impact on physics achievement. Students' self-confidence in physics learning has a stronger direct influence on their achievements than their interest in physics.

Assessing Students’ Attitudes towards Physics through the Application of Inquiry and Jigsaw Cooperative Learning Models in High Schools

“…Even so, the image that physics is complicated remains the primary reason why some students in Singapore do not take physics in their advanced studies (Oon & Subramaniam, 2013). Meanwhile, Susongko and Fatkhurrahman (2017) stated that the achievement of Indonesian students in physics on the Trend in International Mathematics Science Studied (TIMSS) was directly influenced by self-efficacy, interest, and students' attitudes towards physics.…”

Factors Study of New Media Literacy in Indonesia on Environmental Awareness Character to Protecting The Environment

“…Not what they need. As in previous studies by Susongko (2018), the dominant factor in his research was that respondents' awareness in maintaining the environment was not very good. The most dominant factor in this study is the dimension of developing pleasure and respect for media content.…”

Application of the Climate Kids Interactive Web to Build Understanding of Concepts and Environmental Awareness of Class VI Students on Global Warming Material

“…Science learning is learning that is linked to real conditions that study everything that exists on earth (Gita et al, 2018). Science learning has an important role in fostering understanding of basic scientific concepts for environmental problems (P. Susongko & T. Afrizal, 2018). The aim of science learning is to increase knowledge and understanding of science concepts (Pramesti et al, 2022).…”
