- Abstract
Simulation based formative assessment is one method for measuring comprehensive problem solving. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of simulation based formative assessment on student problem solving skills. Fifty high school students participated in this quantitative study with explanatory design and traditional class was used. The key instrument in this study was an adaptation of FCI (force concept inventory) and FVA (force velocity and acceleration), which were validated by two physicists and had a reliability of 0,804%. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistic as well as inferential statistics, specifically the independent sample t test. The result is significant differences in the problem-solving skills of students. The effect of simulation based formative assessment was that the problem of students solving the category of experts was improved by 11% and category of novice was reduced by 41%. It can be used to help students solve problems by visualizing physical phenomena and also as an explanatory tool in concept formation. However, this study cannot be generalized because the number of respondents is limited.
