Abstract
The study is a descriptive study aims to investigate student’s misconceptions in basic concepts of natural science through CRI (Certainly of Response Index), clinical interview and concept map. The basic concepts of natural science consist of concepts of Biology including cell concept and cell division, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, and heredity; concepts of Chemistry including atomic structure and periodic system of elements, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, and chemical kinetics; concepts of Physics including fluid, waves, electricity, and mechanics. Subjects of the study were 131 students majoring in Natural Science Education, class of 2010. Data were obtained by using achievement test and interview guidelines. The results show that both student misconceptions on Biology and Chemistry were categorized as low (26%), while Physic was categorized as moderate (32%). On Biology, the highest misconception for Heredity concept was second Mendel’s Law (87%). On Chemistry, the highest misconception for Atomic Structure and Periodic System concept was electron configuration and elements stability concept (87%). On Physics, the highest misconception for Electricity concept was the function of electronic components. It suggested designing science instruction by constructivism approach that detects the student’s preconceptions and designs the instruction from the preconceptions. The main principle in correcting student’s misconception is gives the students learning experiences that show a conflict of the concept with natural events. Thus, hopefully, this conflict of experiences with the previous concept can cause a correction in conception.
