Description
Summary:Misconception is something that causes students fail to understand physics concept intensively. The research aims to identify the students’ misconception on Newton Law concept using four-tier diagnostic test. Method used in the research was descriptive method. Data of students’ misconception was collected using test and interview. The subjects of the research were students of X MIPA 5 in State Senior High 10 Malang in 2019/2020 academic year and they were 32 students. The result of the research shows that the level of students’ misconception of X MIPA 5 in State Senior High 10 Malang is 54% which belongs to medium category. The research found that the misconception which happened to most students was on Newton II Law which is 63%. It also relevead that misconception in students occur because of experiences or events experiences by students in everuday life, students’ initial concepts and teachear teaching methods.
