Abstract

This research investigates the competence of junior high school science teachers in Palu City, Indonesia, regarding laboratory teaching. The study aims to assess teachers' abilities in planning, implementing, and evaluating laboratory-based learning. Data were collected through observations, document reviews, and interviews with science teachers across six public junior high schools. The findings reveal that all schools engage in laboratory learning to some extent, with varying degrees of success. Teachers often create their own worksheets or use existing guides from science kits. Challenges identified include insufficient laboratory space, incomplete equipment, and a lack of dedicated laboratory assistants. Despite these obstacles, science teachers collaborate to ensure effective laboratory learning, highlighting the need for improved resources and support to enhance the overall quality of science education. The study concludes that while teachers demonstrate competency in laboratory teaching, further development is needed in creating practicum guides, conducting experiments, and assessing student skills. Future research should explore the impact of teacher competence on student learning outcomes in laboratory settings.

Abstract

This study aims to synthesize global empirical findings on literacy numeracy (LN) through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The review focuses on three key aspects: predictive factors of numeracy development, social disparities (including gender and socioeconomic status), and the effectiveness of pedagogical interventions. Data were collected from 15 empirical studies published between 2024 and 2025 and analyzed using thematic synthesis. The findings reveal that numeracy development is influenced by strong cognitive foundations, particularly early numeracy and quantitative language, which act as significant predictors of later mathematical achievement. Neurocognitive evidence also highlights the role of specific brain regions, while family support contributes indirectly through learning environments. Furthermore, significant social disparities persist, where gender and socioeconomic status interact in complex ways to shape numeracy outcomes, with women and low-SES groups consistently showing lower performance. In terms of interventions, domain-specific and differentiated pedagogical approaches, including teacher professional development and contextualized learning, demonstrate effectiveness in improving numeracy skills. However, challenges remain in implementation, particularly in curriculum alignment, assessment bias, and contextual barriers. This study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of literacy numeracy as a multidimensional and context-dependent competence, emphasizing the need for integrated, equitable, and evidence-based educational strategies.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examined research on students’ misconceptions and mental models related to floating, suspending, and sinking (FSS) concepts published between 1990 and 2026. The review aims to map research themes, major forms of misconceptions, classifications of mental models, and instructional interventions used to support scientific understanding. The review implemented the PRISMA framework to identify, screen, and ensure the eligibility of the articles. A total of 215 articles met the inclusion criteria. Findings show that misconceptions remain the most investigated aspect, particularly those involving confusion among density, mass, volume, and buoyant force. Research on mental models is still limited, revealing that many learners rely on initial or synthetic, context-dependent representations rather than scientific models. Instructional interventions are the most extensively and widely investigated, including hands-on activities, conceptual change strategies, simulations, and structured learning models, each contributing differently to addressing misconceptions and promoting scientific mental models about FSS phenomena. Overall, the review highlights persistent conceptual difficulties, insufficient assessment tools, and a need for more integrative research that connects misconceptions, mental models, reasoning, and diagnostic measurement. Strengthening appropriate interventions will support deeper insights into learners’ scientific understanding and mental models of FSS concepts.

Abstract

This study aims to map the learning-reflection ability of Physics teachers in Palu City, Central Sulawesi, at both the planning and implementation levels, and to analyse the influence of Guru Penggerak (Teacher-Mover) status on the quality of reflection displayed. The study employs a qualitative approach with a multiple case study design involving seven Physics teachers from seven public senior high schools, purposively selected on the principle of maximum variation. Data were collected through document analysis of lesson plans (RPP/Teaching Modules), 21 non-participant classroom observations, and triangulation interviews with 21 students. The main instrument was a review-and-observation sheet based on twenty reflection indicators synthesised from the frameworks of Schön, Hatton and Smith, and the revised Bloom taxonomy. The results show that the average reflection ability of the teachers reached only 19% at the planning stage and 21% at the implementation stage, both of which fall within the very low category according to the Larrivee framework. Reflection questions were dominated by ritualistic closed formats at the descriptive-writing level, with four metacognitive indicators not appearing at all across the participants. Guru Penggerak teachers consistently displayed higher reflective capacity (28%) than regular teachers (18%), particularly in the closing stage of the lesson. These findings indicate that academic qualifications and long teaching experience are not automatically correlated with reflective ability, and underscore the importance of developing a standardised reflection toolkit based on Social Emotional Competence to support the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka.

Abstract

The integration of digital technology into geography education requires innovative learning media capable of facilitating students’ understanding of abstract concepts. One topic that often presents learning challenges is the lithosphere, as geological processes such as tectonism, volcanism, and seismic activity are difficult to visualize through conventional instructional resources. This study aimed to develop an interactive digital comic as a learning medium for lithosphere material in Grade X senior high schools and to evaluate its feasibility for classroom use. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, limited to the Analysis, Design, and Development stages. The research was conducted in four schools in Palu, Indonesia, involving one material expert, one media expert, four geography teachers, and 65 students. Data were collected through observations and questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive quantitative techniques. The developed product integrated comic-based storytelling, interactive three-dimensional visualizations created with Assemblr Edu, web-based accessibility through Canva, and digital assessment activities. The validation results indicated that the interactive digital comic achieved a feasibility score of 96.66% from the material expert and 86.66% from the media expert. Practitioner validation scores ranged from 84% to 98%, while student responses reached an overall score of 89.96%. These findings demonstrate that the developed media is highly feasible for geography learning. The study highlights the potential of integrating visual storytelling, interactive multimedia, and digital technologies to support technology-enhanced geography education and facilitate students’ engagement with complex lithosphere concepts.

Abstract

Physics learning is often considered difficult by students because it requires the ability to understand concepts verbally, mathematically, graphically, and diagrammatically. One of the subjects that demands these skills is Newton's Law. This study aims to analyze the level of students' multi-representation al skills in understanding Newton's Law in high schools in Palu City. This study uses a descriptive method with a quantitative and qualitative approach. Data were collected through a multi-representation skill essay test consisting of 5 questions and interviews. The research subjects were 12th grade students at four public high schools in Palu City (SMAN 1, SMAN 3, SMAN 4, and SMAN 7). The results showed that, in general, students' multi-representation skills were in the moderate category. A small number of students were in the high category, able to use various forms of representation consistently, while others were still in the low category, especially in graphical and mathematical representations. The conclusion of this study is that the multi-representation skills of high school students in Palu City regarding Newton's Laws are not yet uniform, with a tendency to be in the moderate category. This indicates the need for learning strategies that emphasize the use of multi-representation to strengthen the understanding of physics concepts.
