Abstract

The study was conducted by giving an identification test on Newton’s laws of motion application in the form of multiple choice questions to students who were enrolled in Mechanics and Basic Physics Courses. The analysis was based on student answers and the level of student confidence in the correctness of the answers in quantitative descriptive and qualitative. The results of the analysis of identification tests were reinforced by thinking map of Newton’s laws of student presentation and followed up by interviews. The results show that students’ conceptions of motion and Newton’s laws is insufficient. Prospective teacher students are required to learn the concepts of Motion and Newton’s Law applied and influenced by common sense.
