Abstract
The purpose of this research is to develop a design for MOOCS with Virtual Microscopic Simulation (VMS) for students levels of understanding. The research method used is the Embedded Experiment Design with the research subjects as many as 45 students- in one of campus in Banten Province, Indonesia. The results showed that the Level of Comprehensive Understanding (CU) was 76.67%, Level of Understanding of Partial Understanding (PU) was 15.56%, and Level of Misunderstanding (MU) was 5.56%, Level of Not Understand (NU) of 2.22% and the lowest level of No Answered (NA) of 0%. It was concluded that the average level of understanding experienced a significant increase with learning through MOOCS with VMS on the concept of electricity.
