Abstract

Problem solving is a vital ability for students to be able to solve physics questions. Physics learning in the classroom needs to improve and develop this ability in students. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the students' problem-solving abilities as learning outcomes that have been obtained by high school students in Palangkaraya City. The research type is descriptive research with survey methods. The instrument used was a problem-solving ability test for the topic of work and energy. It was implemented on 155 12th grade in Palangkaraya. The results were analyzed quantitatively to identify the ability to describe problems, identify variables, plan solutions, implement plans, and check and evaluate the process. The results show that the students’ ability to describe problems and identify variables is better than other abilities. They can identify the variables in the questions and describe the physical situations. In addition, when the questions involve formula analysis and calculations, many students are unable to identify the equations that must be applied. They also have problems with their mathematical abilities to obtain the final answer. Educators need to concern these results in designing work and energy learning that can accommodate students' problem-solving abilities.

Abstract

Understanding the concept of energy is a crucial aspect of science education, as it serves as the foundation for comprehending various natural phenomena and processes around us. However, the energy concept comprehension of Class VIII-A students at SMP Negeri 13 Palangka Raya remains low due to their lack of active participation during lessons and the unappealing media used in teaching. This low understanding results in poor learning outcomes. To address this issue, this study employs the discovery learning model supported by PhET Simulation media. The aim of this research is to improve learning outcomes on the topic of energy. The study was conducted in two cycles using Classroom Action Research (CAR). Each cycle involved four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected from 18 students in Class VIII-A of SMP Negeri 13 Palangka Raya during the 2023/2024 academic year and from colleagues. Data collection methods included teacher activity observation sheets and student learning outcome tests, which were then analyzed descriptively. The results showed an increase in the students' average scores from 87.06 in Cycle I to 87.22 in Cycle II, with an improvement in classical mastery from 82.35% to 83.33%. It can be concluded that the use of the discovery learning model supported by PhET Simulation media on the topic of energy successfully enhanced the learning outcomes of Class VIII-A students at SMP Negeri 13 Palangka Raya.
