Abstract

The study aims to explore the pre-service chemistry teacher ability in constructing context-based Content Representation on Electrochemistry topic (Cb-CoRe-E). Due to the exploration of pre-service chemistry teacher ability in constructing Cb-CoRe-E, this research adopted a descriptive study with quantitative approach. A total of 20 pre-service chemistry teacher enrolled on Curriculum course were the subject of this research. The data of pre-service chemistry teacher ability in constructing Cb-CoRe-E were collected according to the document which consist a questions on pedagogical aspect. As many as 9 indicators were used as a references to be explored the pre-service chemistry teacher ability in constructing Cb-CoRe-E. The data of pre-service chemistry teacher ability were analysed according to descriptive quantitative technique by classifying the mean score obtained into five categories from very good to bad. The result of this study showed that the pre-service chemistry teacher ability in constructing Cb-CoRe-E was good. It can be concluded that pre-service chemistry teacher were ready to conducted a good chemistry learning. The pre-service chemistry teacher in the future is expected applying CoRe in every learning to promote students'chemistry meaningful learning. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
