Abstract

This research aims to look at the bigger picture the misconception of students and lower the quantity of students who teremediasi using Virtual Physics Laboratory (VPL) based PhET on the concept of ohm's law through three stages with diagnostic test method used in this research is a method of pre-design alphabets experiment, while the research used is one group pretest-posttest. Development of the test which consists of pertanyaaan and semi enclosed reason given to students of high school level with a total of 16 multiple choice question. Based on the research that has been done, then the ability of the students at the time of pretest have understand the concept as much as 27% after learning he did understand the concept of percentage of students increased to 75%. Whereas, in the category of a misconception of the pretest of 29% decreased to 5%, so the decline in value of this percentage can be said that misconceptions students can be resolved after learning done with Virtual Physics Laboratory (VPL) using PhET.
