Abstract

Purpose -This study aims to address the challenges of teaching astronomy in higher education, particularly in institutions with limited observational infrastructure and urban light pollution. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of Stellarium, a digital planetarium application, in enhancing students' conceptual understanding of astronomy concepts in Physics Education.Methodology - A quasi-experimental research design was employed, utilizing a pretest-posttest control group format. The sample consisted of 30 undergraduate students enrolled in the astronomy course, who were purposively selected and divided into an experimental group and a control group. The research procedure involved the development of Stellarium-integrated instructional materials, the implementation of teaching interventions, and the administration of pretests and post-tests to assess conceptual understanding. Additional instruments included a questionnaire to capture students' perceptions and documentation of classroom activities. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests, independent sample tests, and descriptive statistics.Findings - The results of the initial and final trials showed a significant increase in the experimental group's understanding of astronomical concepts. In contrast, the control group showed minimal improvement. The findings revealed a significant improvement in the experimental group's test scores, with an average gain of 16.6 points (p < 0.05). Students also expressed highly positive perceptions of Stellarium in terms of visual appeal, ease of use, learning motivation, and comprehension of celestial motion. These results suggest that Stellarium is an effective pedagogical tool for enhancing conceptual understanding of astronomy and fostering student engagement.Contribution- The study contributes to the growing body of research on simulation-based learning and offers practical insights into integrating digital technologies in science education, particularly in resource-constrained institutions. It also offers a model for adapting global digital tools to local educational contexts, thereby supporting curriculum innovation in Indonesian higher education.

Abstract

Permasalahan limbah plastik yang semakin meningkat, terutama di lingkungan sekolah, memerlukan solusi kreatif dan edukatif untuk mengatasinya. Program Eco Kreatif bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran lingkungan siswa melalui kegiatan daur ulang botol plastik menjadi pot bunga gantung. Kegiatan ini menggunakan metode project-based learning, di mana siswa SDN 104233 Bandar Labuhan mengikuti tahapan sosialisasi, demonstrasi, dan praktik langsung dalam mendesain serta menghias pot bunga dari botol plastik bekas. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa lebih dari 85% siswa memahami pentingnya daur ulang dan memiliki keterampilan dalam mengolah sampah plastik menjadi produk yang bernilai guna. Selain itu, program ini membantu menumbuhkan kreativitas siswa dan meningkatkan kepedulian mereka terhadap lingkungan. Dengan demikian, program Eco Kreatif tidak hanya berkontribusi dalam pengurangan limbah plastik tetapi juga menjadi media edukasi lingkungan yang efektif sejak usia dini.

Abstract

This development research aims to develop learning media P3 (Smart Round Board) with Surprise Box on the material "Plants that are the Source of Life on Earth" which is suitable for use in the learning process in class IV. This research was conducted in class IV of SD Negeri 105345 Sidodadi Ramunia. This development research uses the Research and Development (R&D) research method using the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. However, this research only reached the development stage. The P3 media (Smart Round Board) with Surprise Box that has been developed has been validated by several experts, namely material experts, media experts and learning experts (teacher response). Based on the validation results from the material expert validator, the score was 92. From the media expert validation results, the score was 88 and from the learning expert validation results, the score was 83. So from the assessment it can be said that the P3 learning media (Smart Round Board) with Surprise Box is The material "Plants that are the Source of Life on Earth" developed is valid and very suitable for use in the learning process.
