Abstract

This community service activity aimed to improve teachers' competency in analyzing learning evaluation instruments through training on Quest software based on the Rasch Model. The participants were 25 high school teachers in Tondano, conducted online via Zoom over two days using a participatory training approach. The method included preparation, execution (conceptual reinforcement, demonstration, hands-on practice, and reflective discussion), and evaluation stages. Data were collected through pretests-posttests, questionnaires, and observations, then analyzed descriptively. Results showed a significant increase in competency, with the average pretest score of 46.80 increasing to 81.20 on the posttest (a 73.50% increase). The N-Gain value of 0.65 falls into the medium category, indicating meaningful training effectiveness. A total of 92% of participants showed substantial improvement and were able to operate Quest and interpret outputs such as item difficulty (logit), item fit statistics (INFIT/OUTFIT MNSQ), and reliability. Participant responses were very positive, with 88% stating the material was relevant and 84% committing to apply the training results in their schools. This activity contributes to strengthening teachers' pedagogical competence in evidence-based learning evaluation.

Abstract

Local wisdom in the architecture of Malige reflects the intuitive understanding of the Buton people regarding principles of physics, making it compelling to study in the context of physics education. This study aims to identify the physics principles in the Malige Traditional House in Bau-Bau through an ethnophysics approach. The method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The results reveal the application of rigid body equilibrium and force distribution concepts in nail-less wooden joints, fluid mechanics in the natural ventilation system, and force equilibrium on the inclined plane of the stairs. The study concludes that this local wisdom aligns with modern physics theory and holds potential as a source for meaningful contextual physics learning.

Abstract

Evaluating the quality of test items is crucial for accurately assessing student competence in academic competitions such as physics olympiads. This study aims to analyze the quality of physics olympiad test items used in the Temu Fisika 2024 competition for senior high school students across North Sulawesi. A total of 40 multiple-choice items from the preliminary round of the Temu Fisika 2024 physics olympiad were analyzed. The responses of 35 high school students who participated in the competition were examined using the Rasch model through the QUEST program. The analysis covered item fit, reliability (item and person), difficulty level, and distractor effectiveness as complementary CTT analysis. The results showed that 33 items (82.5%) fit the Rasch model, while seven items showed misfit. The Rasch reliability indices were good (Item Reliability = 0.82, Person Reliability = 0.84). The difficulty levels were appropriately distributed, with 50% of items categorized as moderate, 22.5% easy, 20% difficult, 2.5% very easy, and 5% very difficult. However, distractor analysis revealed a significant shortcoming: only 15% of items had all distractors functioning effectively. This study is the first Rasch analysis of the Temu Fisika olympiad, providing empirical evidence that while the test is generally reliable, specific improvements are needed. The findings highlight the importance of revising misfitting items and non-functional distractors to improve the discriminating power of the test, particularly among high-ability participants. This study also provides a practical reference for improving item development and validation processes in academic competitions.
