Massive Open Online Simulation (MOOS) of physics concepts microscopic for improving creative thinking

Abstract

Physics consists of concepts that are macroscopic and microscopic, physics concepts that are microscopic or Physics concepts that are invisible or unobservable. If the phenomenon that is microscopic can be understood then the macroscopic phenomenon will also be easy to understand. This research aims to produce a Massive Open Online Simulation (MOOS) online course on microscopic concepts that enhances creative thinking. The research method used was Embedded Experiment Design with research subjects being 60 high school students at one campus in the province of Jakarta, Indonesia. The results showed MOOS of Physics Concepts Microscopic for Improving Creative Thinking with average normalized gain score creative thinking increased by 0.54 with the medium category. These results indicate that MOOS on microscopic concepts increases students' creative thinking.
