Abstract

The case study aims to determine students' interest and motivation during thelearning process in physics subjects with material on rectilinear motion andstatic fluids. The population of this study were students in classes X and XI atSMAN 9 Banda Aceh for the 2023/2024 academic year. The selected researchsamples were students in classes X MIPA 2 and XI MIPA 4, totaling 20 and 29students respectively. This research uses descriptive research with a qualitativeapproach. Data collection was carried out through observing student activities,observing student responses, interviews, and documentation. Based on theresults of the case study that has been carried out, it is concluded that studentactivity in learning physics can be categorized as low with the percentage dataobtained for class X MIPA 2 being 42.78% and the percentage for class XIMIPA 4 being 50.56%. The physics learning process still uses conventionalmethods and the media used in the learning process is a whiteboard. The resultsof interviews with teachers stated that students were not enthusiastic and lazyin learning physics. This indicates that students have low interest andmotivation towards learning.

Abstract

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education has gained significant attention in recent years, particularly in the context of enhancing learning outcomes and fostering critical thinking. This study investigates the implementation of STEM-based learning strategies in physics education, focusing on how these interdisciplinary approaches influence students' understanding of complex physical concepts. By integrating hands-on experiments, real-world applications, and collaborative problem-solving, STEM education in physics aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The study uses a case study methodology to examine the impact of STEM activities on student engagement, comprehension, and application of physical principles. Results indicate that STEM-based instruction fosters deeper understanding, improves retention of core concepts, and enhances students' ability to apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios. This paper discusses the challenges and benefits of incorporating STEM strategies in physics education, offering insights into its potential to transform traditional teaching methodologies and prepare students for the demands of a technology-driven future.
