Abstract

The purpose of this study was to improve students' Mental Models and Mental Modelling Ability in the context of electrical circuits by using the House Installation Model as a laboratory learning instrument. The problem-solving-based laboratory learning model was applied in this research. The research method utilized a descriptive qualitative research design with a pretest-posttest design. The research results showed that 75% of students experienced Mental Models improvement in the context of electrical circuits, with 15% reaching level 2 and 60% reaching level 3. The improvement in Mental Modelling Ability was also significant, with 80% of students experiencing improvement, 21.7% reaching a moderate level, and 58.7% reaching a high level of Mental Modelling Ability. These results suggest that problem-solving-based practice learning models can effectively improve students'  Mental Models and Mental Modelling Ability in the context of electrical circuits.

Abstract

Physics education at the high school level still faces challenges in improving student learning outcomes on abstract concepts such as sound waves. Many instructional approaches lack contextual or culturally relevant elements that can make learning more engaging and meaningful. This research explores the integration of local cultural elements into physics education using the Kakula musical instrument as a contextual learning tool. Using a quasi-experimental method guided by the Educational Reconstruction model, this study examines the academic validity of the learning media and its impact on student learning outcomes. The kakula instrument, rich in acoustic properties, was used to teach the concepts of waves and sounds within a problem-based learning framework. The experiment showed a statistically significant improvement in learning outcomes, with average post-test scores increasing from 59.94 to 70.53. Statistical tests, including normality, homogeneity (Bonett and Levene), and a t-test, showed a p-value of 0.0001 < 0.05, which means that the null hypothesis is rejected. The alternative hypothesis is accepted, indicating a significant effect of physics learning media using the Kakula musical instrument on student learning outcomes on the topic of sound waves. The results of the research can serve as a basis for developing culturally integrated teaching materials while preserving local heritage and enriching science education practices.

Abstract

When an earthquake occurs, there is a strange phenomenon, namely the liquefaction of large areas of land. The liquefaction of the soil caused the houses to sink into the ground along with the casualties. In addition, there were also houses that shifted hundreds of metres from their initial position because the foundation soil was liquid and was on a slope so that it was like a ‘walking house’ After this phenomenon occurred and the peak of the earthquake had ended, the soil under the foundation of the house that shifted gradually solidified again as before. In science, this phenomenon is called liquefaction. Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the soil loses much of its strength and stiffness in a short period of time. The soil contracts at the onset of cyclic loading due to earthquake shaking, so that the pore water pressure increases to near or beyond its normal stress. In order for a stable building to stand on the ground, the soil layer must be safe from liquefaction hazards. Seeing the above phenomena and problems, as a researcher in the field of education, it is appropriate to conduct research in the form of developing props for the phenomenon of ‘walking houses’ during liquefaction for science learning. The development research that will be carried out has a problem formulation, namely how to develop teaching aids for the ‘walking house’ phenomenon. The purpose of the research is to develop props for the phenomenon of ‘walking houses’ during liquefaction for science learning. As well as providing an understanding that the phenomenon of walking houses and trees is a natural scientific event that can occur in liquefied areas. This development research uses the 4D model. The 4D model used has several stages, defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The results of the research on the development of props for the walking house phenomenon can provide a complete scientific understanding of how the house can walk or move when liquefaction occurs while some other houses collapse and sink. The results of this research can also be used for disaster learning so as to provide in-depth knowledge for all students so that in the event of a disaster they are expected to take appropriate and accurate action which in turn can reduce the number of casualties. Based on the normal gains of the application of the ‘walking house’ props for science learning and mitigation at SMPN1 Sigi 0.31 SMPN 13 by 0.33 Sigi SMPN 27 Petobo by 0.19 and SMPN 21 Petobo by 0.32 Petobo said the ‘walking house’ props are effective for science learning and mitigatio

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.

Abstract

The ability to interpret graphs is important for students to understand the relationships between physical variables, which can lead to the discovery of concepts. There are problems with creating graphs for direct object motion analysis because the movement is fast, and there is a lack of supporting laboratory equipment, which hinders students from further interpreting the motion graphs. Tracker software can be used to determine the exact position and time of moving objects from video recordings of real events. However, students' knowledge of Tracker use remains minimal, and their graph-interpretation skills are also underdeveloped. Based on this, the purpose of this community service activity is to guide students in analyzing object motion using Tracker software, train students' graph-interpretation skills, and assess students' responses to the community service activity using Tracker in object motion analysis. The implementation of this community service consists of three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Community service activities include providing materials, conducting demonstrations, completing practical assignments using Tracker in object motion experiments, interpreting graphs, and giving presentations. The conclusion from this community service is that students can use Tracker software effectively to analyze object motion experiments, that students' graph interpretation skills are trained, and that students' graph interpretation skills improve. Students' responses are very good to the use of Tracker in object motion analysis to train graph interpretation skills.
