The feasibility of electrostatic teaching material: Oriented to conceptual understanding

Abstract

Conceptual understanding is one of the important things in physics learning. Many factors affected the conceptual understanding of students; one of them was the book. Based on the data from the implementation of a questionnaire on junior high school students, their learning resources (books, etc.) have not been able to help them understand many concepts of physics including the concepts of electrostatics.Some abstract concepts in physics make them more difficult to understand physics. This study aimed to develop electrostatic teaching material-oriented to conceptual understanding for junior high school students. We use the ADDIE model, i.e., analyze, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The result of this study shows that the teaching material is feasible to use in learning based on the feedback from validators.
