Abstract

This study developed an Android-based physics learning media integrating local wisdom—Perahu Dayung (Rowing Boat)—to improve student engagement and contextual understanding of Newtonian mechanics. Using a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the Four-D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate), the study began with classroom observations, interviews, and literature review to identify learning needs. The media was designed with a storyboard and prototype, then developed using Unity 3D. Expert validation involved physics lecturers, teachers, and peer reviewers. Trials included 10 students (limited) and 20 tenth-grade students (field trial) at Ferdy Ferry Putra Senior High School, Jambi, using a one-group pretest-posttest design. Instruments included tests and evaluation sheets. The resulting app, Fisika Asik, features interactive quizzes, animations, and cultural content. Validation scores were high for content (4.6) and media (4.4). Learning outcomes showed moderate improvement with a normalized gain of 0.38. The results indicate the media is effective, engaging, and culturally relevant. Integrating local culture offers a contextualized learning approach. Further studies are recommended to expand testing and enhance features.

Abstract

Argumentation is a fundamental aspect of scientific literacy, enabling students to construct, justify, and evaluate claims based on evidence. However, traditional assessments emphasize rote memorization rather than developing reasoning skills, highlighting the need for a more effective evaluation approach. This study aims to develop and validate the Inquiry-Driven Essay Assessment (IDEA) framework to assess students' argumentation skills in static fluids. The research employs the ADDIE model. The participants comprised 26 eleventh-grade students from a Bandung, West Java private school who had prior knowledge of static fluid concepts, including hydrostatic pressure, buoyant force, and the principles of floating and sinking objects. The findings indicate that the developed assessment instrument demonstrates high validity and reliability, with strong internal consistency and alignment with learning objectives. The claim generation aspect obtained the highest average score, while the evidence analysis, justification, and support aspects require further improvement. The study concludes that the IDEA framework can serve as an effective tool for assessing and enhancing students' argumentation skills. The implications of this research suggest that implementing the IDEA framework can provide a more comprehensive and objective evaluation approach in science education, thereby assisting educators in fostering students' critical thinking and argumentation skills more effectively.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine students’ procedural skills engagements through a low-tech, hands-on physics experiments involving the construction of an electroscope during electrostatics instruction. A total of 27 students, organized into eight collaborative groups, participated in the activity, which emphasized student autonomy in selecting materials, designing components, and performing technical adjustments such as stripping wire insulation. Adopting a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through classroom observations and assessed using a rubric that measured four key dimensions:. material preparation, following the steps of the experiment, problem-solving and troubleshooting, and observational skills and interpretation. The results indicate that the majority of student groups demonstrated proficient to exemplary performance across most dimensions, particularly in material handling and interpreting experimental outcomes. These findings underscore the educational value of analog experimentation in fostering students’ procedural competencies, supporting hands-on engagement, and reinforcing foundational scientific practices in a digitally evolving classroom environment.

Abstract

Preparing students for 21st-century challenges requires learning experiences that connect scientific knowledge with real-world applications. This study investigates the integration of engineering practices in junior high school physics education through a project in which ninth-grade students designed and built simple earthquake alarm prototypes. The project adopted the PGBU (Pikir, Gambar, Buat, Uji)—a structured design process widely used in Indonesia—to guide students through iterative phases of thinking, sketching, building, and testing. Data from 24 student groups were analyzed using a rubric assessing functionality, application of physics concepts, creativity, construction neatness, and use of recycled materials. Most groups performed at moderate to high levels, with relatively higher performance observed in creativity and functionality. Results also indicated evidence of collaboration and the ability to apply physics concepts in real-world contexts. The project-based implementation of PGBU effectively fostered essential 21st-century competencies such as creative problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork. These findings highlight the potential of culturally grounded, design-based learning to support meaningful STEM education in junior high schools.

Abstract

Research related to gender perspectives in education has increasingly garnered the attention of researchers and practitioners. The focus on women in educational contexts has become particularly prominent in recent years. This article aims to present a comprehensive bibliography of recent research addressing significant issues affecting women in education. It identifies research trends, key topics, and developments in this field over the past three years, providing a valuable reference source for education researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in understanding the role of women in education. Key trends include persistent gender disparities in educational attainment, the challenges and opportunities for women in education, and the impact of policies and interventions designed to support women’s educational and professional advancement. The resulting bibliography highlights the progress made and the ongoing challenges in achieving gender equity in education, offering insights into effective strategies and areas requiring further investigation.
