Abstract

Thermodynamics as a science studie something concrete and can be proven mathematically using scientific equations that have been proven to be true, so it is not uncommon for students to think that it is difficult to understand. This is because a high level of understanding is needed to understand the concepts of thermodynamics. The aim of this research is to develop a thermodynamics textbook assisted by Heyzine flipbook which is effective in improving students’ generic science, critical thinking and conceptual understanding. This research is a development researchs (Research and Development) which uses the Thiagarajan 4D development model. The subjects in this study were 26 students of the Physics Education study program at Mataram University who took the thermodynamics course. The data in this study is in the form of product effectiveness data obtained through pre-tests and post-tests given to research subjects. The improvement in students' abilities calculated using the n-gain formula. There was an increase in student abilities after being taught with the thermodynamics textbook assisted by Heyzine flipbook according to the n-gain value of 53.31 with moderate criteria. Heyzine flipbook-assisted thermodynamics textbook is proven effective in improving students' generic science, critical thinking and conceptual understanding.

Abstract

Prior knowledge is one of the important factors that can affect the effectiveness of absorbing new information or concepts that students will learn. This research aims to know the mastery profile of students' concepts (prior knowledge) on hydrostatic pressure material. Descriptive research is applied in this study to realize these goals. This research was conducted at SMAN VII Mataram with a total sample of 44 students spread over four classes. Samples were taken using a simple random sampling technique. The data collection tool in this study was a concept mastery test instrument consisting of 14 questions. This test instrument measures students' mastery of concepts from cognitive level C1 (remembering) to cognitive level C4 (analyzing). Data on test results were analyzed by calculating the average percentage of students who could answer questions correctly according to the cognitive level being tested. This percentage is used as an indicator to measure the student's mastery of concepts on hydrostatic pressure material. Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that the level of student's mastery of concepts for cognitive level C1 (remembering) was 70.45%, cognitive level C2 (understanding) was 31.36%, cognitive level C3 (applying) was 27.73%, and cognitive level C4 (analyzing) was 18.94%. It can be concluded that students' mastery of concepts, especially at cognitive levels C2-C4, is still very low.

Abstract

This research aims to create and analyze a comprehensive science question model (Science Kafah) to enhance the quality of prospective teachers. The quality of prospective teachers refers to their comprehensive abilities in a specific science subject being taught. These abilities encompass conceptual understanding, religious connections, application, and meaningfulness. The research instrument consists of Science Kafah questions with various developed models. The analysis is conducted on the question models and individual items to assess validity, reliability, discrimination power, and difficulty index. The research findings reveal that the Science Kafah question model consists of 1) questions measuring conceptual understanding, 2) questions measuring religious abilities, 3) questions measuring application skills, 4) questions measuring meaningfulness, and 5) questions measuring social skills. Analysis of the instrument shows that out of the 25 tested questions, 20% were deemed inadequate, while 80% met the criteria for good questions. The Science Kafah question model can assess comprehensive abilities in science, its connection to religion, application skills (technology, engineering, environment, arts, and mathematics), and the meaningfulness of the taught concepts.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to create a suitable video-assisted problem-based learning paradigm for use in teaching students to develop their critical thinking skills in physics. Elasticity and Hooke's law are the materials of physics that are used. The products developed are in the form of a syllabus, Learning Implementation Plans (RPP), teaching materials, Student Worksheets (LKPD), learning videos, and students' critical thinking skills test instruments. A total of 30 odd-semester XI MS 2 class students for the 2022/2023 academic year at SMAN 1 Kediri became research participants. Research and development (R&D) is the methodology employed, with the 4D model design consisting of define, design, develop, and disseminate. The method of data collection employed a validation sheet that was evaluated by three expert validators and three practitioner validators, and the percentage of validity was then calculated. The results of the validity of the product developed for the syllabus have a percentage of 90.83%, lesson plans of 90.90%, teaching materials of 88.54%, worksheets of 90.41%, learning videos of 89.06%, and test instruments of 90.10% with valid and reliable categories with an average percentage above 75.00%. So, it can be concluded that the resulting learning tools are valid for improving students' physics critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Radial Derivative Forward Modeling of Gravity Anomalies for Identification of Cylindrical Geological Features. The gravity method is a geophysical method with exploration costs that are quite cheap compared to other geophysical methods. This method is based on the density contrast of the target body with the surrounding. The cylindrical body is one of the targets among various other geological features. This research was conducted to test the ability of radial derivatives of gravity anomalies for targets in the form of cylindrical body. Radial derivatives consist of a first derivative and a second derivative. Forward modeling of cylindrical geological features is carried out analytically and with finite elements. Both calculations were carried out with a computer program based on Matlab. The results show that there is no difference in results either analytically or finite element wise. This method has been proven to be able to provide clear boundary positions on cylindrical geological features.

Abstract

This study evaluates the integration of online Pascal compilers in undergraduate physics education at the University of Mataram, focusing on its impact on students' programming skills. Over one semester, three classes (A, B, and C) of physics education students from the Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Education (PMIPA), Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP), University of Mataram, participated in lectures, discussions, and practical exercises using the GDB Online Pascal Compiler. Course content included Pascal fundamentals, arrays, matrices, and applications in physics, evaluated through assignments, mid-semester, and final exams. Quantitative analysis of student performance data revealed significant differences in mean scores and variability among the classes, with Class A achieving the highest average score and Class C exhibiting the greatest variability. Statistical tests confirmed that performance data for all classes deviated significantly from normal distribution, necessitating non-parametric tests. The Mann-Whitney U test indicated no statistically significant differences in median scores between class A vs. class B, class A vs. class C, and class B vs. class C, suggesting consistent performance outcomes across classes post-course. These findings underscore the potential of the online Pascal compiler in enhancing students' programming skills within the context of physics education.
