Abstract

The research was conducted in class VIII SMP Al-Kindi Cipayung Depok City, 68% of the 35 students experienced difficulties in learning physics, especially in the Light and Optical Instrument chapter. Therefore, a precise and fun learning method is needed. The method of discussion and practicum through a virtual laboratory is one of strategies used to improve understanding of physics in the Light and Optical Instrument chapter of the VIII grade students of VIII SMP Al-Kindi Cipayung Depok City. This research was conducted in two cucles, each of which consisted of planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. The result of this study indicate that there is an increase in the effectiveness of learning, understanding, and students’ self-confidence.
