Survey reveals self-efficacy significantly influences problem solving in classical mechanics, suggesting Polya's model improves outcomes.
The concepts of Classical Mechanics mostly employ mathematics in their approach to the material, thus involving calculations with derivative and integral formulas. In order to make the problems presented in Classical Mechanics relatively easy to solve, a structured problem-solving procedure is needed. One such procedure that can be implemented is the Polya problem solving model. In addition, students’ self-efficacy in solving Classical Mechanics problems influence their level of success. The results of a survey on students of The Tadris Physics Department at UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta showed that there is a high and low influence of students' self-efficacy on the problem solving abilities of Classical Mechanics in students with the Polya model significantly (U = 50.500 and p-value = -5.788/2 = -2.894, this score is less than 0.05 (-2.894 < 0 .05) and Asymp.Sig = 0.000 < 0.05).
