PENERAPAN PENDEKATAN KONTEKSTUAL DENGAN SIMULASI MACROMEDIA FLASH UNTUK MEREDUKSI MISKONSEPSI PESERTA DIDIK

The research was aimed to investigate (1) The large percentage of misconceptions before applied contextual approach with macromedia flash simulation in physics learning, (2) The large percentage of misconception after applied contextual approach with macromedia flash simulation in physics learning, (3) The significant difference before and after application contextual approach with simulation macromedia flash in physics learning. The type of research was used pre-experiment research with one-group-pretest-posttest design. Population in this research was all students of eleventh grade students of  SMANegeri 1 Sendana. The sample was taken by purposive sampling technique, as many as 24 students. Data collection techniques was used  multiple choice tests certainly of rensponse index (CRI). Data analysis techniques was used descriptive and inferential analysis. The results showed that (1) The percentage of misconceptions of learners before application contextual approach with macromedia flash simulation 60,16% with medium category, (2) The percentage of misconception learners after applied contextual approach with macromedia flash simulation 35,16% with very low category, (3) There was significant between misconception result before and after applcation contextual approach with macromedia flash simulation in physics learning.
