Remediate senior high school students' misconception regarding the runs out battery concept using AS-CBRText.

Misconceptions is one of the classic problems faced in learning physics in senior senior high schools. This research was conducted to test the use of analogy supported computer based reputational text (AS-CBRText) in remedial teaching physics to obtain depiction about its effectiveness in remediating misconception in senior high school students regarding the concept of batteries's exhaustion. AS-CBRText is written in computer format and analogy used to support text in the form of dynamic analogies packaged in a video analogy. The methodology performed in this study was pre-experiment with a one group pretest and posttest design. The investigation subjects were 40 students from one senior high school in Riau Province. The data collection instrument used in this research was the conception diagnostic test in a four-tier test format related to the concept of runs out battery. The outcomes indicated that the practice of AS-CBRText could be remediate misconceptions of more than 70% of senior high school students related to the concept of runs out battery. These results indicate that the use of AS-CBRText has a high efficiency in facilitating the change of conception of senior high school students from a state of misconception to a scientific conception regarding the runs out battery concept.
