Abstract


This study aims to develop the tools of school physics learning to improve conceptual understanding and argumentation ability for prospective physics teachers. This study was done toward physics education students of LPTK Bandung in semester III by using the design of Research and Development modified using the mixed method design. The steps of this study involves introductory study, development study, limited implementation, analysis, and report phases. The set of school physics learning programs was developed using the generate-an-argument model. The results of this study shows the presence of an increase in conceptual understanding for the experiment class by 0.72 in a high category and for the controlled class by 0.41 in a medium category. The argumentation ability of students develop well in a medium category. The students responded very positively to the learning model developed.
