Abstract

Physics is the study of phenomena, symptoms and interactions of objects that occur in nature. One of the phenomena that often occurs is natural disasters. Natural disasters are a series of events that occur naturally or non-naturally that can harm humans and anything in nature. Natural disasters can be prevented or reduced by doing mitigation. Mitigation is an effort carried out before a natural disaster occurs which aims to reduce or prevent the occurrence of natural disasters. In learning physics, natural disasters can be analyzed in physics concepts so that a teacher can make natural disaster phenomena a phenomenon that can increase students' knowledge in studying physics. Therefore, teachers need teaching materials that are integrated with natural disasters and mitigation to support learning to convey and analyze the role of physics in natural disaster phenomena and mitigation. The purpose of this study was to describe the teacher's need for the development of an integrated physics module for natural disasters and mitigation as teaching materials in physics learning. This research is qualitative research with the subject of research is physics teacher from several schools in Riau. Data collection was carried out using a non-test method by providing a questionnaire in the form of a google form. The results of the questionnaire show that most teachers need physics teaching materials in the form of an integrated physics module for natural disasters and mitigation.

Abstract

Coastal communities in Indonesia face limited access to clean water because water sources are dominated by seawater and the availability of fresh water is extremely limited. This problem creates a need for innovative and sustainable solutions that can be applied in everyday life and utilized in science learning. This study aims to design and test the feasibility of a solar panel–based seawater purifier as a contextual physics learning medium and a means of providing clean water for coastal communities. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D), conducted through the stages of needs analysis, design, prototyping, expert validation, and limited field trials. Data collected includes expert validation results, practicality assessments by teachers and students, and empirical measurements of water quality such as pH, TDS, salinity, specific gravity, ORP, and EC. Qualitative findings from the validators indicate that this tool has good functionality, is relevant for learning, is easy to use, and is safe to operate. The results show an average validity of 3.73 (very valid) and practicality of 3.60 from students and 3.86 from teachers (very practical category). Water quality tests showed a pH of 6.83, TDS of 124 ppm, which meets WHO standards (TDS < 500 ppm), salinity of 0.01%, specific gravity (SG) of 1.00, ORP of 224 mV, and EC of 0 µS/cm, indicating that the water is suitable for consumption. Thus, the aim of the research is to produce a valid, practical seawater purifier and provide a sustainable alternative solution for the clean water needs of coastal communities.
