A SCHEME OF PEDAGOGICAL PROBLEMS SOLVING IN KINEMATIC TO OBSERVE TOULMIN ARGUMENTATION FEASIBILITY

The purpose of this study is to determine the students’ ability to map out the problem solving. This paper would show a schematic template map used to analyze the students’ tasks in performing problem solving pedagogically. Scheme of problem solving map of student was undertaken based on Toulmin Argumentation Pattern (TAP) argumentative discourse. The samples of this study were three work-sheets of physics education students who represented the upper, middle and lower levels of class in one LPTK in Medan. The instrument of this study was an essay test in kinematics topic. The data analyses were performed with schematic template map in order to know the students’ ability in mapping the problem solving. The results showed that the student in the Upper level of class followed the appropriate direction pattern, while two others students could not followed the pattern exactly.
