Abstract

The focus of this research is diagnose students concepts in environmental physics courses. This study uses a mixed-method. Data is obtained from interviews, observations, questionnaires, and test. The subjects of this research are 78 physics education students who have passed environmental physics courses, and 4 lecturers. The results showed that the chapter in bad category was the chapter "external factors that affect life on earth". This answers with the percentage of students who answered correctly you are 44,84. As well as the chapter "The association of physical principles with soil characteristics" also on the bad category with a percentage of 36,48. While the chapter that good categories are the chapter "the role of vegetation and carbon balance" and "Opening Environmental Issues". This number has a percentage of more than 79,4 and 77,96.
