Abstrak: Artikel ini bertujuan meninjau bentuk kesalahan dan dugaan miskonsepsi siswa dalam mempelajari satuan berat serta mengidentifikasi alternatif penyelesaiannya melalui media tangga satuan. Penelitian menggunakan metode studi kepustakaan dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis terhadap 17 artikel jurnal nasional dan internasional tentang satuan berat, pengukuran, miskonsepsi, instrumen diagnostik, dan media pembelajaran. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa siswa mengalami kesulitan memahami soal cerita, menentukan langkah konversi yang tepat, memahami hubungan antarsatuan berdasarkan nilai tempat, dan menjelaskan alasan di balik prosedur yang digunakan. Media tangga satuan membantu siswa memahami hubungan antarsatuan secara visual, tetapi berisiko menjadi alat bantu hafalan apabila tidak disertai penguatan konsep. Oleh karena itu, penggunaannya perlu dikombinasikan dengan tes diagnostik dua tingkat, permasalahan kontekstual, serta evaluasi sebelum dan sesudah pembelajaran. Karena penelitian ini tidak menguji langsung keefektifan media, rekomendasi tersebut memerlukan pembuktian melalui penelitian lapangan.
Kata Kunci: miskonsepsi, satuan berat, siswa sekolah dasar, media tangga satuan, studi kepustakaan.
Abstract: This article aims to review the forms of errors and suspected misconceptions that students experience when learning weight units, and to identify an alternative solution through the use of unit ladder media. The study employed a literature review with a descriptive-analytical approach, analyzing 20 national and international journal articles on weight units, measurement, misconceptions, diagnostic instruments, and learning media. The findings indicate that students have difficulty understanding word problems, determining the correct conversion steps, understanding relationships among units based on place value, and explaining the reasoning behind their procedures. The unit ladder helps students understand relationships among units visually, but it risks becoming a memorization aid if it is not accompanied by conceptual reinforcement. Therefore, its use should be combined with two-tier diagnostic tests, contextual problems, and pre- and post-instruction evaluation. Because this study did not directly test the effectiveness of the media, the recommendations require empirical validation through field research.
Keywords: misconceptions, units of mass, elementary school students, measurement ladder medium, literature review.
