Abstract

This study aims to (1) identify students’ misconceptions in redox (2) determine the effectiveness of LC 5E learning model in correcting student’ misconceptions in redox; and (3) determine its retention after correction of student’ misconceptions in redox with LC 5E learning model. This research is descriptive and pre-experimental. Descriptive study was used to identify and describe the misconceptions students on redox material, while pre-experimental was used to study on the effectiveness of LC 5E learning model in correcting misconceptions and determine its retention. Subject in this study is a science class (X IPA 1 SMA) of Al Muhafidzoh Blitar which consists of 20 students who have learned redox. The misconceptions were observed using a diagnostic test, 15 items of multiple-choice questions with reasoned. The test has validity of 97% and reliability value of 0.934.. The results showed that (1) students has following 14 misconceptions in redox; (2) The LC 5E learning model is effective in improving students' misconceptions in redox reaction with an average reduction of 78.78%; (3) retention of students' understanding of the concept after two weeks of repairs using LC 5E learning model is 95.6%, which is classified in the category very well.
