Abstract

The desire to achieve developed country in achieving Vision 2020, a new dimension to the teaching and learning of science was implemented to build a scientific community that is progressive, creative, innovative and visionary. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the cluster school students’ performance in basic chemistry term and solving algorithmic and conceptual problem in stoichiometry. The instruments used was an open-ended questions that accordance to the aspect that tested in this study. The sample consists of 48 students from a cluster school in Pontian, Johor. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS Version 16.0. The findings of this study have shown that students’ performance in mastering basic terminology stoichiometry is good (mean score, 69.0%) but is at a moderate level of algorithmic problem solving and conceptual understanding in stoichiometry (50.2% and 45.3%). The results showed a significant relationship between students’ performance in solving algorithmic problems and understanding of the concept in stoichiometry (r=0.289). However, there was no significant relationship between the term mastery and problem solving of algorithmic (r=0.384) and understanding the concept of stoichiometry (r=0.39). The results also showed no significant difference between the achievement of boys and girls in mastering basic chemical terminology, algorithmic problem solving and conceptual understanding of stoichiometry. Some recommendations are given at the end of the report of this study.
