Abstract

The purpose of the study was to investigate students’ problem-solving approach in the concept of electrostatic force. The study was conducted from February until May in the second semester of the 2020/2021 academic year by using qualitative approach of case study design. The population of this study were all students of physics education study program at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education of Cenderawasih University in Jayapura, Indonesia. A total of 10 students participated in the study. The data were collected through an essay test, interview, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Based on the result of data analysis, it is found that the students’ approach was 50% categorized as plug and chug, 30% categorized memory-based approach, and 20% categorized no clear approach.
