Diagnosis of Student’s Misconception on Momentum and Impulse Trough Inquiry Learning with Computer Simulation (ILCS)

Misconceptions often happen to the concept of momentum and impulse. A learning model that is considered appropriate to overcome misconceptions is the inquiry learning model. Computer simulation is using in this research for help inquiry learning model. The purpose of this research is to know the profile of student misconception after applying inquiry learning. This research uses descriptive analytics. The study was conducted on 28 high school students (12 boys and 16 girls) of class X in Bandung. Misconceptions are detected using the Momentum and Impulse Four-Tier Test (MIFT) instrument. Based on the results of the study, it is found that there are still 15.56% of students experiencing misconceptions about the material momentum and impulse.
