| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research was concerned with developing a diagnostic a diagnostic test to measure the concepts of atom model and the concepts of particle-wave dualism. The main objective of the research was to develop a set of diagnostic tests which would be used to find out the percentage of students who still misunderstood, who partially understood, and those who correctly understood the concepts of an atom model and of particle-wave dualism. This research was non-experimental and the respondents were 31 physics students at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of Syiah Kuala University who were given a written diagnostic test after the students covered or studied 75% of quantum physics of the whole material for a semester. The data were analyzed using the Certainty o Response Index (CRI) and correlational statistics. The results of data analyses showed that 50.6% of students still misunderstood, 33.6% partially understood, and only 2.8% correctly understood the concepts of an atom model. The results of data analyses using a correlational method showed that students who misunderstood the concepts of an atom model and of particle-wave dualism were influenced by the weakness (r = 0.17) of understanding the concepts of basic mechanics (Newton`s Law). The diagnostic test which was developed in this research can be used as a standard test to measure student understanding of quantum physics, particularly the concepts of an atom model and the concepts of particle-wave dualism. Data which were collected from the implementation of the diagnostic test can be used to remedy the misunderstanding of the concepts of an atom model and the concepts of particle-wave dualism. The researchers suggest that a remedial be implemented by using an Independent Learning Module of Quantum Physics or a visualization method with PC sofware. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) is an approach to mathematics teaching and learning that has been regarded as very promising in the effort for improving the quality of mathematics education in our schools, due to the principles and the characteristics of RME. Based on this understanding, RME has been tried out in some elementary schools. The principles and characteristics of RME are also regarded as very suitable for improving the quality of mathematics education in junior and senior high schools.. Based on the reason, it is very likely that RME will also be implemented in junior and senior high schools. However, the implementation of RME in these schools might face some difficulties. In this article the writer describes these difficulties and gives some suggestions in order to make this implementation feasible and successful. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research was aimed to find out the problem root caused the less optimum proses and of Economic Mathematics Course at Economy Study Program, Specialty of Accountancy Education. This study was a qualitative-descriptive research conducted from May to July 2006 with the research subjects of the college student and the instructor. The problem root was discovered by analyzing field data taken during the course process and the students` learning achievement. Meanwhile, the literature study was applied to get the feasible and rational action plan. From the data analysis by the use of instructor`s journals, vidio recording, interviews, and discussion with colleagues, it was found that the problem root was the class culture as learning community had not yet been build among the students. Dealing with above problem, the researcher planned to apply the model of Cooperative Learning on Learning Together type. This type was selected because it was the simplest type of the cooperative learning model and was considered feasible with the situation of the students, which had not been yet accusstomed with the cooperative learning model. Also, it had special characteristic in the balance roles between instructor as a learning source and active function of the students in constructing the knowledge individually and socially. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | The researcher implement empirically an abstraction concept which is a vertical reorganizational activity of the previously-constructed mathematical concept in order to yield a new mathematical structure based on Indonesian social and cultural backgrounds. The employed activities were to recognize, cluster and construct (squares). The context of the research was the social background of a Junior High School student in dealing with connections among squaeres. The researcher identified the abstraction profile of a nineth grade student of Junior High Shool named Prakasita in constructing relations among squares. The researcher designed an interview which encouraged the student to use the previous abstraction results in order to contruct new knowledge. The student was given a question which was then expanded based on the answer to the question by employing the keyword `what`, `how`. The research results showed that the student Prakasita used abstraction to recognize the characteristics and definition of a square, to cluster the characteristics of two different shapes and to construct networks among squares. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research was an initial step of composing a Personality Psychology competency test, which is carried out through the courses Personality Psychology I and II based on the curriculum of the undergraduate (S-1) study programme. As an initial step, the objective was to generate standard learning result tests for the courses Personality Psychology I (THB-PK-I) and II (THB-PK-II). The checking of the quality which consisted of 145 items covering content validity, item analysis, reliability testing, and predictive validity testing by using achievement indices (semerter achievement indices and grade point average-GPA) as criteria. Approximately 300 undergraduate (S-1) students from a Psychology study programme of a private higher education instituation in Yogyakarta participated as standarzation sample at the beginning of a new semester. Based on standart criteria, the item selection resulted in items which fulfilled the requirements of the final form for each test, totalling 29 for THB-PK-I and 28 for THB-PK-II. To maintain the content validity and to determaine a subject's final grade for each course, the semi-final form of each test which convered 145 items was still maintained. Based on the semi-final data form, the checking of internal consistency reliability of each test resulted in co-efficient reliability a = 0.55 (N= 92) for THB-PK-I and a = 0.80 (N = 108) for THB-PK-II. The checking of predictive validity of each test resulted in co-effective validity = 0.72 (N= 108; p = 0.00) for THB-PK-I and = 0.34 (N= 96; p = 0.01) for THB-PK-II. In conclusion, it is essential to improve items which had low discriminatory factors or which were even disqualified in their respective test. |
