Abstract

This study aims to improve student’s conceptual understanding of the diversity of landforms in Indonesia through the implementation of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model supported by animated videos and formative assessment. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles following the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which includes planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The participants were 28 third-grade students of SD Negeri Tanjungrejo 5. Data were collected through observation, documentation, pre-test, and post-test to measure students’ conceptual understanding. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ learning outcomes across each cycle. In the pre-cycle stage, the classical completeness rate was only 17.86%. After implementing the learning model in Cycle I, the percentage increased to 57.17%. Further improvement occurred in Cycle II, where classical completeness reached 85.71%, exceeding the predetermined success indicator. The use of animated videos helped students visualize abstract concepts of landforms, while formative assessment provided feedback on students’ understanding during the learning process. Therefore, the integration of the Problem Based Learning model, animated video media, and formative assessment proved effective in enhancing students’ conceptual understanding and creating a more active and meaningful learning environment in elementary school.

Abstract

The students' understanding of temperature, heat, and thermal equilibrium remains inadequate, necessitating an educational strategy to enhance their scientific understanding. This study seeks to enhance students' understanding of concepts by employing guided inquiry learning in conjunction with formative assessment on thermal material. The research employed a mixed methods strategy, utilizing quantitative data from concept understanding exams and qualitative data from interviews. Quantitative analysis encompassed descriptive statistics, normalized gain (N-Gain) computations, and independent samples t-tests, and qualitative data was examined through content analysis methodologies. The study's results indicated a significantly greater enhancement in conceptual understanding in the experimental group relative to the control group. The N-Gain value for the experimental group was 0.69 (moderate category), but the control group attained just 0.25 (low category). The data satisfy the statistical requirements, specifically normal distribution (Sig > 0.05) and homogeneity (Sig = 0.406). The t-test results indicated a significant difference between the two courses (t = 73.761; p < 0.001), demonstrating that guided inquiry learning with formative evaluation substantially enhances conceptual understanding. This study's theoretical implications suggest that integrating guided inquiry learning with formative assessment can enhance students' conceptual understanding through scientific investigations and ongoing feedback. The finding corroborates the constructivist approach, which underscores the significance of active learning experiences and cognitive interactions in fostering a more precise and comprehensive conceptual understanding.

Abstract

This study explores the concept of sound waves in the making and playing of Yogyakarta gamelan through a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) learning approach, addressing the urgent need for scientific documentation amid the declining sustainability of this cultural heritage. Using a descriptive qualitative method with a case study design, the research examines the material composition, forging techniques, and acoustic properties of gamelan, incorporating insights from four experienced gamelan craftsmen and a gamelan practitioner (wiyaga) in Yogyakarta. Findings reveal that the optimal bronze composition (a 77:23 copper-tin ratio) and traditional manufacturing processes significantly influence sound characteristics, such as sustain, harmonic richness, and tonal depth, aligning with principles of material physics (Young's modulus, density, and damping coefficient) and vibration mechanics. Despite practitioners' reliance on empirical knowledge, their techniques demonstrate an implicit understanding of STEM concepts, particularly in tuning and sound optimization. However, a disconnect remains between scientific terminology and traditional practice, highlighting the need for culturally sensitive STEM integration in gamelan education. The study concludes that a holistic STEM approach can bridge scientific and cultural perspectives, supporting both the preservation of Yogyakarta gamelan and innovative educational models. Recommendations include STEM-based training for artisans and further research on alternative materials while preserving traditional sound aesthetics.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate and explore students' understanding of the concept of Kinematics, particularly in the concepts of acceleration, velocity, distance and displacement. This research used a mixed-method approach with an embedded experimental design. The research was conducted by involving 21 students consisting of 7 men and 14 women. This research used reasoned multiple-choice questions and short interviews to determine the students' initial and final understanding. The results showed that, before the intervention was carried out, as much as 42.86% of students did not understand the concept of distance and displacement correctly, as much as 26.99% of students did not understand the concepts of instantaneous velocity and average speed, as much as 45.6% did not understand the concepts of position, velocity and acceleration and as much as 87.31% did not understand about the direction of velocity and acceleration. In addition, the results showed that the application of JITT with assessment for learning could significantly improve students' understanding of concepts, with N-gain = 0.56 and effect size = 2.38. This study explains the difficulties and general understanding of students on the concepts of distance and displacement, and the direction of object acceleration. In addition, the integration of assessment for learning to JITT is an option in the learning process to improve understanding of Kinematics concepts.

Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze the students 'initial and final understanding after the application of JITT with 3D animation, to identify students' responses and arguments, and to determine the impact of using JITT with 3D animation. This research involved 43 students of the 6th semester of the 2019-2020 academic year of the Physics Education study program of the Universitas PGRI Kanjuruhan Malang who took solid state physics course. Students' initial and final understanding was analyzed through responses and arguments presented during the pretest, while the impact of JITT application with 3D animation was analyzed based on the results of the pretest and posttest as well as student responses during the learning process expressed through short interviews and discussions. The qualitative and quantitative data generated from the mixed-method approach were analyzed simultaneously. The results show that the students understand that the atomic radius for all the different crystal lattices is the same, namely a/2. This was awakened by an early understanding of the general definition of the radius. However, after following the JITT stages with 3D animation, their understanding changed that the atomic radius of each crystal lattice is different in length. In addition, the results of statistical analysis showed that there was a very significant increase in the students' mastery of concepts from an average of 26.9 to 96.7. Meanwhile, the N-gain value is very high, namely 0.96 in the very effective category, which illustrates that JITT with 3D animation has had a high impact on students' understanding of atomic radius in the concept of crystal geometry.

Abstract

This research aims to develop an instrument for assessing understanding distance and displacement concepts. Distance and Displacement Inventory (DDI) is an instrument constructed in multi-representations, including picture, table, graphic, mathematical, and verbal representations. This instrument is in multiple-choice format with ten questions to assess students' understanding of distance traveled and displacement. DDI development refers to R&D design by Borg&Gall and test development flowchart by Beichner. DDI was applied to 357 students in Indonesia who had taken introductory physics courses. Student answers were analyzed to determine the DDI's psychometric properties and structural analysis. The analysis results show that the DDI is adequate for assessing students' understanding of travel distance and displacement concepts. Meanwhile, the structural analysis of students' knowledge results shows that students have different perceptions of each question item according to their representation. Furthermore, students who understand the concept of distance traveled and displacement in one representation may need help understanding it correctly in another representation. This research implies the necessity of designing learning designs based on multi-representations and teaching students about the changes between these representations.

Abstract

Argumentation abilities are critical for students to develop in physics learning, yet most studies focus on students outside pesantren. This research investigates the argumentation abilities of pesantren students on the topics of temperature and heat. The study employs a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The instrument used is a test comprising six essay questions assessing argumentation abilities. The data in this study were examined using a paired sample t-test, effect size calculation, and N-gain analysis to assess changes in students' argumentation abilities. The findings demonstrated a significant enhancement in students' argumentation abilities following the implementation of the ALIVP learning model. The effect size analysis indicated a very large impact, while the N-gain results classified the improvement as high. A detailed examination of argumentation indicators revealed that the highest increase occurred in claim accuracy, followed by the completeness and credibility of data, strength of backing, and strength of evidence. These findings suggest that the ALIVP model successfully enhances the argumentation abilities of pesantren students in physics learning, bridging a gap in current research. This study underscores the potential of integrating argumentation-focused learning models in pesantren to foster critical thinking in scientific contexts.

Abstract

This service aims to improve the economy and independence of the creative industries of people with disabilities. The creative industry is a printing and screen printing business owned by partners, namely people with disabilities, especially people who are deaf or hard of hearing and speech impaired. People with disabilities generally find it challenging to get access to funds because their limitations make it difficult to gain trust from the industry. The method offered in implementing this service is transferring science and technology for business development through discussions, guidance, sewing t-shirts and bags, marketing management training, and partner mentoring. Results from questionnaires and partner interviews show that understanding, skills, independence, and the number of products made have increased. In real terms, this service program has succeeded in increasing the turnover of partners. This phenomenon is because partners can receive screen printing and sewing totes and mug accessories simultaneously without going from second-hand (totes and accessories are no longer ordered by other tailors). Thus, this service can help the creative industries of people with hearing and speech impairments become more independent in their society.

Abstract

This study aims to improve the understanding of the concept of the elements of plane figures in grade III students of Tanjungrejo 5 Public Elementary School through the application of an open-ended approach. The main problem found in the pre-action was the low ability of students to understand geometric concepts due to reliance on memorization and one definite answer. This Classroom Action Research (CAR) was carried out in two cycles using the Kemmis & McTaggart model which includes the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The learning steps applied included open problem orientation, problem presentation, independent or group problem solving, and discussion of the results of the solution. The results showed a significant increase in conceptual understanding gradually. Students' classical mastery in the pre-action only reached 3.70% with a very poor category. After the action was carried out in cycle I, the mastery rate increased to 64.28%. In cycle II, classical mastery jumped to 92.80% and was included in the excellent category. This increase is supported by the theory of constructivism and the theory of cognitive flexibility which emphasize that knowledge is actively constructed by students through problems that challenge creativity. This approach has proven effective in making students more creative and able to solve mathematical problems with more than one solution.
