Abstract

This study aims to develop an instrument to measure thinking styles and their impact on cognitive adaptation in the context of physics problem solving. Understanding how individuals approach and solve physics problems can provide valuable insights into cognitive processes and strategies used. The instrument consists of various tasks designed to depict different thinking styles commonly employed in physics problem solving. These thinking styles include concrete sequential (CS), abstract sequential (AS), concrete random (CR), and abstract random (AR) thinking styles. This research follows the Research and Development (R&D) model. The development model used is the non-test instrument development model. The instrument utilizes a forced-choice model by asking respondents to determine the order of statements that best align with their condition when solving physics problems. The instrument provides four options ranging from very inappropriate to very appropriate. A total of 683 first-year students at Universitas Tadulako participated in the pilot study, and 364 in the implementation study. The expert judgment data analysis technique used the Aiken's formula. Empirical data analysis was conducted using the Ques program to test goodness of fit to the Partial Credit Model (PCM), item validity, and instrument reliability. The content validity result showed an Aiken's V value of .81, and the test reliability was .90. The average infit MNSQ value was 1.00 with a standard deviation of .18. This study found that physics education students at Universitas Tadulako tend to have an abstract sequential (AS) thinking style. The implications of these findings can be utilized to measure students' thinking style tendencies when solving physics problems.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to make a temperature measuring instrument for air temperature and humidity on the device using the DHT11 sensor as a temperature and humidity sensor for the object under study, the ATMega328P CH340G microcontroller as data processing and the Bluetooth HC-05 module as an intermediary communication between the device and a smartphone. , utilizing App Inventor technology as a means of information quickly and accurately. The research method used in this study is the research and development method or known as research and development (R&D). This measuring tool is made using the Arduino Uno R3 module, which is programmed using the Arduino programming language. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that: 1) The measuring instrument is designed to be able to measure temperature and humidity in a place/room continuously, 2) the system can provide precise and accurate information on the temperature and humidity of the device to the user. The additional result is that apart from practical measuring tools it can also be used as a wireless monitoring tool for temperature and humidity for swiftlet houses which is useful for solving temperature and humidity problems in swiftlet houses as well as outputs of Intellectual Property Rights Products.
