Abstract

Understanding concepts is important in learning physics because it helps students connect theories with real-life phenomena, develop scientific reasoning, and avoid misconceptions. However, in practice, physics learning still faces challenges, especially in the topic of straight-line motion. One solution is an educational physics game based on cognitive conflict, which is expected to improve students' concept understanding and correct misconceptions. This research is a type of development research using the Plomp development model. The educational game developed is based on cognitive conflict and consists of four stages: 1) Activating prior knowledge and misconceptions, 2) Presenting cognitive conflict, 3) Discovering concepts and equations, and 4) Reflection. The validity results for the physics educational game are V = 90, which is in the very valid category, and the practicality results are 92.48, which is in the very practical category. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the physics educational game based on cognitive conflict for improving students' concept understanding in the topic of straight-line motion meets good validity criteria and can be used in the learning process as an interactive teaching material.

Abstract

Learning physics on the subject of sound waves remains a challenge because abstract concepts are often difficult for students to understand. This study aims to test the effectiveness of using E-SWS sound waves using a Discovery Learning model that has been revised in accordance with the Independent Curriculum on student learning outcomes in cognitive and psychomotor aspects. The research method used is quasi-experimental with a posttest only control group design. The research sample consisted of two classes, Phase F5 and F6, at SMA Negeri 3 Payakumbuh, with F5 as the experimental class using Discovery Learning-based E-SWS and F6 as the control class using the Discovery Learning model without E-SWS. The research instruments were multiple-choice tests to measure cognitive aspects and science process skill observation sheets for psychomotor aspects. Data analysis was conducted through a two-sample t-test. The results showed that the average posttest score for the experimental class was 89.2, which was higher than that of the control class, which was 73.7. In terms of psychomotor skills, the average score for the experimental class was 78, which was also higher than that of the control class, which was 67.5. The t-test showed that the t-count was greater than the t-table, indicating a significant difference in both aspects. It was concluded that E-SWS using the Discovery Learning model was effective in improving students' cognitive learning outcomes and science process skills.

Abstract

Learning in the 21st century must include 4C skills, including critical thinking skills, especially in physics learning. Students' critical thinking skills need to be assessed to prepare them for the 21st century. Assessment instruments that specifically evaluate students' critical thinking skills on linear motion material are not yet available. Therefore, this study aims to develop a valid electronic assessment to evaluate students' critical thinking skills on linear motion material. This research is a development study (R&D) using the Plomp model. The data collection instruments used were interview sheets, self-evaluation sheets, and validation sheets. The electronic assessment developed was validated by three validators. Electronic assessment has a high validity category in terms of content, learning design, visual communication, and software usage, according to the validity analysis results. Based on the validation results with an average score of 0.85, it indicates that the electronic assessment used to evaluate students' critical thinking skills on the topic of linear motion is considered valid and suitable for use for use in assessing students' critical thinking skills.
