“…Students' conceptional profiles can be divided into three categories: understanding concepts, not understanding concepts, and misconceptions (Wola et al, 2020). Students are categorized as understanding concepts if the answers follow the approved scientific concepts.…”

This study aims to develop a valid and reliable biological macromolecules three-tier test (BM-3T) so that it is feasible to identify misconceptions of prospective science teachers. This research is a type of research and development by following the research design by Kiliç and Sağlam, which consists of three stages, namely defining content, obtaining information on student misconceptions, and developing tests. Research data was obtained through interviews, validation, and test trials. The subjects in this study consisted of 14 prospective science teachers in the first semester in the 2021/2022 academic year at the Universitas Negeri Manado. The data analysis carried out includes the analysis of test validity, test reliability analysis, and test difficulty level analysis. The results showed that the 16 test items developed were declared valid, the test reliability coefficient of 0.78 was in the reliable category, and the level of difficulty of BM-3T shows an average value of 0.44, which is included in the moderate category. Therefore, BM-3T is appropriate to identify misconceptions of prospective science teachers on the topic of biological macromolecules.

“…Diagnostic tests can not only identify students' misconceptions but can also identify concepts that students have understood well or lack of knowledge (Kirbulut & Geban, 2014;Andariana et al, 2020). In addition, diagnostic tests can provide an overview of the strengths or weaknesses possessed by students in relation to the concept being studied (Wola et al, 2020;Gurel et al, 2015;Fakhriyah & Masfuah, 2021;Agustina & Supahar, 2021). This important information becomes a very valuable resource to assist teachers in determining the methods, approaches, strategies, learning resources, and media that will be used in the biology learning process in schools (Syamsiar & Raharjo, 2021).…”

“…Diagnostic tests can be carried out in various forms of tests, including multiple choice, descriptions, brief descriptions, reasoned descriptions or using multiple tier test instruments such as two-tier tests, three-tier tests, and four-tier tests (Rukayah et al, 2020;Andariana et al, 2020;Wola et al, 2020). Each form of this instrument has its strengths and weaknesses for diagnosing students' initial abilities.…”

Diagnostic tests have a very important role to provide information about the strengths and weaknesses of students related to a concept to be studied. This study aims to obtain an overview of the implementation of diagnostic tests carried out by Biology teachers in South Sumatra Province using the survey method. This study involved 86 Biology teachers in South Sumatra Province. Samples were taken using the convenience sampling method. Data collection by using e-questionnaire distributed through Google Form. The e-questionnaire consists of 25 questions developed from standard indicators of assessment, including planning, method selection, test instrument development, test implementation, test result management, test results reporting and the implications of these test results in the biology learning process in schools. The results of this study indicate that Biology teachers in South Sumatra have carried out routine diagnostic tests. The development of this diagnostic test instrument has also referred to the learning objectives and the results of the diagnostic test have been used to determine the methods, strategies, and approaches used in the learning process. Although in general the implementation of diagnostic tests in Biology learning is good, but the implementation and management of diagnostic tests that are very close to the learning process is feared will not have a significant effect on the implementation of the learning process in schools.

Low concept understanding on students can cause students to experience difficulties in learning certain materials. To overcome this, it is necessary to identify understanding of the concept in students using the right method. This research aims to analyze the level of students' concept understanding using the five tier test method on substance pressure material. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey type of research. The subjects in this research were students in 8th and 9th grade totalling 716 students. The sample used was students who had received substance pressure material consisting of 258 students. The instrument used a five tier test. Based on the results of the research, it can be seen that the percentage of understanding of the concept of the students for each indicator and sub concept of substance pressure is 16%, so it can be concluded that the level of understanding of the concept of substance pressure in students using the five-tier test method is included in the low criteria. Future research is expected to develop this research again, so that later it can be used as a reference for teachers in determining the right learning strategy to improve students' understanding of the concept of substance pressure.
