- Abstract
The aim of this study was to explain the effectiveness of the Investigation-Based Multiple Representation (IBMR) learning model to improve the physics problem solving abilities of high school students on reflection and refraction of light. The effectiveness of the learning device was analyzed based on the results of tests of problem solving abilities and student responses. The trial was conducted on 62 students from grade eleventh at State Senior High School 1 of Waru (East Java, Indonesia), using a one group pretest-posttest design. The data collection in this study was used test and survey techniques. The data collection instrument were used a problem-solving ability test consisting of seven problem descriptions and student response questionnaires. The data were analyzed quantitatively using inferential statistics, i.e. paired t test and independent t test for problem solving ability data and descriptive statistics using the percentage of students for student response data. The results of the data analysis was showed significant increase in the ability to solve physical problems with an average N-Gain score of high category (i.e. 0.72 for students of class IPA 1 and 0.73 for students of class IPA 2) and there was a consistency in the increase in grades N-gain in both replication classes. The results of the analysis of student responses showed that students were responded to learning activity very positively with a percentage of 85.84%. These results indicate that learning using the IBMR model is effective for improving students' physics problem solving abilities in reflection and refraction material.
