Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to describe the profile of basic teaching skills of prospective physics teachers in a microteaching course. Methodology: This study uses a descriptive quantitative method was employed, using observation techniques. The observation technique was used to assess students' basic teaching skills during their microteaching practice. Main Findings: The results indicate that students’ basic teaching skills are generally good, although several aspects still require improvement. Skills in opening and closing lessons (87.04%), explaining material (89.3%), questioning (90.9%), reinforcement (82.6%), variation (88.5%), and classroom management and discipline (97.6%) were categorized as very good. Meanwhile, skills related to small group discussion (74.18%) and individualized instruction (63.89%) were classified as moderate and require further development. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes to physics education pedagogy by providing empirical evidence on the specific teaching skill profile of prospective physics teachers, which can inform the design of microteaching programs oriented toward the unique characteristics of physics instruction. These findings highlight that, while most teaching skills are well developed, prospective physics teachers still need structured support in implementing collaborative learning and differentiation strategies to enhance the quality of physics teaching.

Abstract

This community service program aims to support junior high school science teachers across Pacitan Regency in developing instructional tools grounded in deep learning principles. The program adopted a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach implemented through systematic training and mentoring activities involving 74 science teachers. The activities were organized into two main sessions. The first session focused on enhancing teachers’ conceptual understanding and providing practical guidance in designing deep learning–oriented instructional tools. During this stage, participants developed initial drafts that emphasized higher-order thinking skills, inquiry-based learning strategies, and the integration of digital media. The second session consisted of collaborative evaluation and refinement of the drafts through feedback from facilitators and fellow participants. The evaluation process employed facilitator assessment instruments to examine the alignment of the instructional tools with deep learning principles, along with participant questionnaires to document teachers’ perceptions and learning experiences. Quantitative data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative feedback from facilitators and participants was examined to support the interpretation of the findings. As a result, each participant produced a finalized deep learning–based instructional tool tailored to the specific needs of their classroom context. The findings indicate that 95.67% of participants rated the program as very good, and 93.4% reported an increased understanding of deep learning concepts. To ensure the sustainability of the program outcomes, all finalized instructional tools will be compiled into a single volume and submitted for ISBN registration. Overall, this initiative enhanced teachers’ pedagogical and technological competencies and provides a replicable model of professional development for other science education contexts.
