Abstract

Students learning difficulties can be detected through diagnostic tests. The results of the diagnostic test can show the mapping of students^ understanding of various concepts. This mapping is beneficial for teachers to determine the improvement in the implementation of learning so that concepts that are not understood can be followed up immediately. This research aims to develop a specific diagnostic test for simple harmonic motion material in high school physics subjects. The results of this study are in the form of data and analysis of students^ learning difficulties in the material of simple harmonic motion. Through these results, the teacher can determine the steps for learning improvement.
