“…By giving time for students to discuss and apply concepts, it will make it easier for teachers to be able to find misconceptions that occur in students in class. In this way, misconceptions can be reduced immediately (Schuessler et al, 2016). A misconception is a false concept or conception that a person perceives as true and is used as a habit.…”

This research develops an interactive physics e-book to provide innovation in physics learning at schools. The purpose of the study was to determine the feasibility of a physics e-book on simple harmonic motion material, to determine the reduction of student misunderstandings after learning using e-books, and to determine the practicality of the e-books developed. This research uses research and development (R&D) methods with the research subjects of class X students. Based on learning innovations that have been carried out, it was concluded that e-book learning media has been developed to reduce student misunderstandings. E-book has been validated by 3 experts and the result are very good so it is suitable for use in learning. There is a reduction in student misunderstandings in modeling and implementation classes. The largest decrease occurred in the implementation class which was 11.00% while the modeling class was 9.00%. The e-books used successfully improved students' understanding by 18.00% in classroom modeling and 48.00% in implementation classes. The effectiveness of e-books in reducing student misconceptions belongs to the medium criteria in all classes. The practicality of e-books in modeling and implementation classes belongs to very good criteria.
