Abstract


This study was aimed to determine whether there is any significant
difference in motivation to learn chemistry or not before and after the using of
acid-base virtual lab, whether there is any significant increasing in motivation to
learn chemistry or not between the students who use acid-base virtual lab in
practicum activity and who do not, whether there is any significant difference in
learning achievement or not if prior knowledge is statistically controlled.
This study was designed as a research experiment with one factor design,
two variables, and one co-variable. One factor was in the form of learning media,
two variables motivation and learning achievement, one co-variable was of prior
knowledge. Samples of this research were two classes of grade XI students of
SMA Negeri 1 Sleman. One class was given a treatment of the use of virtual lab
(experiment class) and one class was not (normal class). The data were collected
with documentation technique, exercises, and inquiries. Motivations and
achievements data were analyzed using same subject t-test, different subject t-test,
and covariant test.
The results of this research show that there is any significant difference in
the motivation of students’ before and after the using of acid-base virtual lab,
there is no significant increasing in learning motivation between students’ who
used acid-base virtual lab in practicum activity with who did not, there are
increasing in achievement and motivation to learn chemistry if prior knowledge is
