Abstract

This research aims to reveal and evaluate student conceptions of kinematics using graphical presentation. Students' conceptions can be expressed using graphic presentations and evaluations by providing feedback. Group discussions are also used to reduce misconception. The sample of this research is Physics Education Student Semester I (12 students) of PGRI Madiun University and Electrical Engineering Students of Class A and B (24 and 21 students) of Indonesian Railway Academy (API Madiun) which is taking basic physics. This research is qualitative descriptive research by describing the treatment before and after giving feedback, and discussion. Obtained information that (1) graphical presentation can provide preliminary information about student conception, (2) feedback and discussion can increase the percentage of students response. The recommendation of this finding is introducing mathematical language and graphics presentation before learning physics concept.
