Abstract

This research aims to compose learning material which contains definitive macroscopic, microscopic and symbolic to analyze students' conceptual understanding in acid�base learning materials. This research was conducted in eleven grade, natural science class, senior high school 1 (SMAN 1) Karangtengah, Demak province, Indonesia as the low level of students' conceptual understanding and the high level of students' misconception. The data collecting technique is by test to assess the cognitive aspect, questionnaire to assess students' responses to multi representative learning materials (definitive, macroscopic, microscopic, symbolic), and observation to assess students' macroscopic aspects. Three validators validate the multi-representative learning materials (definitive, macroscopic, microscopic, symbolic). The results of the research show that the multi-representative learning materials (definitive, macroscopic, microscopes, symbolic) being used is valid in the average score 62 of 75. The data is analyzed using the descriptive qualitative method. The results of the research show that 72.934 % students understand, 7.977 % less understand, 8.831 % do not understand, and 10.256 % misconception. In comparison, the second experiment class shows 54.970 % students understand, 5.263% less understand, 11.988 % do not understand, 27.777 % misconception. In conclusion, the application of multi representative learning materials (definitive, macroscopic, microscopic, symbolic) can be used to analyze the students' understanding of acid-base materials.
