An urgent learning problem in the Covid 19 pandemic is the unavailability of IT-based teaching materials that support online learning. In addition, in learning physics there are also fundamental problems, namely students' low understanding of concepts. Misconceptions often occur in learning physics, especially in the concept of motion. Therefore it is necessary to know the problems and supporting factors of learning, especially in motion material, so that the right solution can be found. This study aims to determine students' understanding of the concept of motion and to determine the conditions of learning in one of the high schools in Padang Pariaman Indonesia. This type of research is descriptive research, in the form of survey research. The instrument used was a concept test of motion taken from the FCI (Force Concept Inventory), this test is equipped with questions of belief and answers to the students' reasons. Another instrument is a student and teacher questionnaire. The sample consisted of 31 superior class students and 3 physics teachers. The results showed that 36% of students had misconceptions, 34% of students did not understand the concept and only 30% of students understood the concept even though they had studied the topic being tested. Teacher learning is also lacking in identifying misconceptions (50%), less experimental activities (50%), discussions (58%) and other activities that actively involve students. Meanwhile students want learning that involves them actively even in the conditions of online learning during the current Covid19 era. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
