Dimensi Pengetahuan FKPM (Faktual, Konseptual, Prosedural, dan Metakognitif) Mahasiswa IPA pada Pembelajaran Mekanika

Abstract

Mechanics is the oldest branch of physics on which other branches of science are based, so science students are obliged to study and understand it. So far, it is seldom done an assessment related to the dimension of knowledge. Even though this is very important to achieve learning success. The dimension of knowledge referred to here is the level of factual knowledge, conceptual, procedural and metacognitive. The purpose of this study is to determine the dimensions of student knowledge in basic mechanics courses. This type of research is qualitative. The data obtained in this study included the level of knowledge and understanding of students' concepts. Data collection techniques used essay tests and interviews. The data source is students who are currently taking basic mechanics courses. The results showed that as many as 9% of students had a level of factual knowledge, 31% conceptual, 48% procedural, and 12% metacognitive. The average value of students 'conceptual understanding is 79. There is a positive relationship between the dimensions of knowledge and students' conceptual understanding. The higher the dimension of knowledge a student has, the better the conceptual understanding is.
