Abstract

This study aims to reveal the profile of students’ conceptual understanding in the era of the covid-19 pandemic using a five-tier format of assessment using electricity and magnetism. This type of research is a qualitative descriptive research. This study used a sample of students majoring in engineering at the Politeknik Muhammadiyah Tegal. Questionnaires, online diagnostic tests, and online interviews were employed to collect data. The results of the data analysis revealed that the profile of students’ conceptual knowledge revealed that 30.5 percent of students grasped the concept, while 36.3 percent did not, 3.1% false positive, 2.4% false negative, and 27.7% misconception. There are 41 types of student misconceptions identified. The concepts of dynamic electricity and electric circuits include a number of common misconceptions. students believe that electric current is difficult to flow in a large wire because the thickness of the wire blocks electric current. This conception is caused by the factors of reading books and teaching materials, the learning process during school and lectures, intuition in life, as well as logic and basic knowledge possessed by students.
