Abstract

Scientific reasoning is a core skill in science education because it allows students to think logically, critically, and systematically when approaching problems and understanding natural phenomena. Yet, international assessments such as PISA and TIMSS have repeatedly shown that Indonesian students lag behind global averages in this area, making it an urgent issue for physics education. This study aimed to assess the scientific reasoning abilities of grade XI students in Surakarta using a motion dynamics testlet adapted from Lawson’s Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (LCTSR). The research employed a descriptive quantitative design and involved 363 students from three high schools representing different school locations and levels of practicum experience. The testlet, developed through stages of planning, piloting, and validation, was designed to ensure reliability and to capture reasoning indicators such as conservation, proportionality, variable control, probability, correlation, and hypothetico-deductive reasoning. The results revealed that most students were in the concrete (51%) and transitional (47%) stages of operation, with only 2% reaching the formal operational stage. In terms of achievement categories, the majority fell into the fair and lower levels, and none reached the very good level. Statistical analysis showed no significant gender differences, but students from urban schools and those with practicum experience performed significantly better. The novelty of this research lies in contextualizing Lawson’s instrument in terms of motion dynamics and adopting a testlet format that efficiently measures reasoning. These findings highlight the central role of the school environment and practical experience in shaping reasoning skills and provide valuable evidence for strengthening physics teaching and policy.

Abstract

This research aims to identify students' misconceptions about momentum and impulse material using a four-tier diagnostic assessment instrument to implement learning evaluation in the Merdeka curriculum. This type of research is descriptive with a qualitative approach, with data collection techniques carried out through assessments and interviews. Interview data is used to reinforce assessment data. The instrument used in the study is a four-tier diagnostic test on momentum and impulse developed by the researchers. The results showed that 50% of students experienced misconceptions about momentum matter due to the assumption that if two objects move with the same kinetic energy should have the same speed so that the momentum of both objects can be determined by ignoring their velocity. Then, as many as 13. 9% of students experience misconceptions about the law of conservation of matter momentum because of students' assumptions that ignore direction on velocity vector quantities. In other physics concepts, some students are less careful in calculations. The results of this study are expected to be a reference for teachers in designing more meaningful Merdeka curriculum-based learning plans to help students better understand the concepts of momentum and impulse.

Abstract

There needs to be innovation and creativity from educators in designing assessment processes that support learning, one of which is through the use of digital media. In physics learning which often involves abstract concepts and numeracy skills an engaging and up-to-date assessment strategy is necessary. This study aims to develop a website-based Formative assessment media to measure students' initial numeracy literacy in Straight Motion material. The research uses the ADDIE model with five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The media includes a home page display and interactive questions aligned with numeracy literacy indicators. Expert validation obtained a score of 16 out of 20 for material aspects and 18 out of 20 from the second validator for media aspects. The media also received a score of 81 out of 84 for appearance and 80 out of 84 for content from a second validator. These findings indicate that the Formative-based website media meets the "very good" criteria and is an effective, innovative alternative for evaluating physics learning at the high school level.

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.

Abstract

This study addresses the continuing urgency to strengthen students’ numeracy literacy, a core competence needed to interpret quantitative information and solve contextual problems in physics learning. It aims to profile high school students’ numeracy literacy abilities on static material using a technology-supported formative assessment. A quantitative descriptive design was employed with 51 students from a senior high school in Surakarta selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a 30-item context-based numeracy literacy test administered via the Formative website and scored dichotomously, then analyzed using Rasch modelling with the QUEST program to obtain person-ability estimates and classify students into high, medium, and low categories. The results show that students’ numeracy literacy levels were distributed across the Medium (51%) and High (49%) categories, with no students in the Low category. Indicator-level findings reveal the strongest performance in interpreting quantitative information and representations (Indicator 1). At the same time, higher-level attainment was limited in applying numerical operations and formulas (Indicator 2), where no responses reached the Advanced category, and contextual reasoning (Indicator 3), which was dominated by Basic–Proficient levels. The novelty of this study lies in providing a Rasch-based diagnostic profile of numeracy literacy, specifically in straight motion, using an online formative assessment platform, yielding detailed evidence across indicators that can inform targeted instructional support. In conclusion, students demonstrated adequate numeracy literacy in straight motion overall, but improvements are needed in procedural fluency and contextual reasoning. This study contributes to physics education by demonstrating an efficient approach to diagnosing numeracy-related learning needs and supporting data-driven planning for physics instruction and assessment.
