Abstract:ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan dan menjelaskan profil model mental siswa, serta menganalisis faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi terbentuknya model mental alternatif siswa kelas X MIA di SMA Laboratorium Undiksha Singaraja pada materi ikatan ion dan ikatan kovalen. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan mix methods, jenis sekuensial. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan observasi, tes model mental, dan wawancara. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah tes diagnostik pilihan ganda dua tingkat dan wawanca… Show more
“…Chemistry as a product includes a set of knowledge consisting of facts, principles, concepts, theories, and chemistry principles. Chemistry as a process includes the skills and attitudes possessed by scientists to acquire and develop chemical knowledge [6]. Teachers should not only focus on the introduction of science concepts but also introduce how to acquire and develop such concepts [7].…”
Technological advancements and the demands of the pandemic around the world forced educators to think of solutions in the teaching and learning process so that there were no obstacles in the assessment process. Although the focus of learning assessment in Indonesia focused on literacy and numeracy assessment, the assessment of science process skills is still carried out because the science process skills are the core key to developing children’s knowledge in science, including chemistry. The present assessment process used more online platforms or virtual tests. This study aimed to describe the virtual test design framework that is suitable for assessing science process skills in chemistry. The method used was a literature review. We collected journal articles in accordance with the theme, and then the journal article was reviewed and arranged into several discussion sections. The framework design for developing and validating virtual test had four phases: planning, developing, validating, trial and data processing. Discussions include an overview of virtual tests, assessing the skills of chemical-specific science processes with virtual tests and how the virtual test design framework assesses science process skills on chemistry that qualify on assessment characteristics (validation, reliability, objectivity, and practicality).
