PENGEMBANGAN CONCEPT-MAPPING ASSESSMENT UNTUK MENGUKUR KEMAMPUAN MAHASISWA MENGKONSTRUK KONSEP ELEKTRONIKA

The purpose of this research is to develop concept-mapping assessment (CMA) model to measure students' ability in constructing electronics concepts and their support feature. The research was performed in three stages: (1) theoretical exploration and expert review of CMA model feature. (2) Empirical test to validate CMA model feature empirically. (3) Implementation stage to examine model effectiveness and find tested evaluation tool model. The result shows that the developed features have satisfied assessment instrument validity and reliability. Result of implementation shows that students' ability in constructing electronics concepts located in the third level, which means that the student is able to (1) make many concepts related to theme, (2) understand concept structure by showing interrelation concept, (3) use hierarchical structure to move main idea to sub-main idea, (4) use many lines and connection words or label, (5) use various connection words, and (6) make cross link showing interconnection between concepts directly. Average score gathered by the student in finishing C CMA model is little bit higher than S model. © 2011 Jurusan Fisika FMIPA UNNES Semarang
