Abstract

In the last three years based on SBMPTN data, interest in the Physics Education Department has decreased drastically in various Public universities in Indonesia which has an impact on private universities, especially at Unismuh Makassar. The desired research objective is to analyze the factors that influence the interest of prospective students towards the Department of Physics Education at Unismuh Makassar. Quantitative descriptive research is the type of research used with the population of senior high school in Gowa Regency which consists of a sample of 50 class XII students from Public senior high school 1 Gowa, Public senior high school 19 Gowa, senior high school Handayani Sungguminasa, andsenior high school Aksara Bajeng. Questionnaire is an instrument used to obtain research data which was analyzed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The results of the analysis in this study obtained 4 factors that influence the interest of prospective students towards the Department of Physics Education at Unismuh Makassar, namely personal and parental motivation factors, environmental factors that like Physics Education, physics content factors, and employment factors.

Abstract

The integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) approaches into interactive digital modules (IDMs) has gained prominence as a strategy for supporting Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in science education. This PRISMA-based systematic literature review synthesizes empirical studies published between 2022 and 2026 to examine how STEM-embedded digital modules are designed, implemented, and evaluated in relation to HOTS outcomes. Using PRISMA procedures and structured Boolean searches across major databases, 22 studies were selected and analyzed across four themes: STEM integration models, interactive design mechanisms, empirical effectiveness, and implementation challenges including scalability and equity. The findings show that modules grounded in the Engineering Design Process (EDP), inquiry-based learning, and adaptive feedback were most frequently associated with short-term improvements in analytical reasoning, problem-solving, and evaluative thinking. Quantitative evidence indicates that one AI-assisted module reported an 18.4% improvement in applied reasoning; however, differences in instruments and study designs limit direct comparison across HOTS measures. Some studies also reported short-term retention effects. The review proposes an integrative framework linking depth of STEM integration, interactive mechanisms, contextual moderators, and HOTS outcomes, and highlights inclusive design, continuous feedback, collaboration, and teacher training as key principles for sustainable, equitable, and evidence-informed implementation.
