Abstract

Earthquake’s phenomena are critical for understanding Earth's interior, tectonic processes, and disaster preparedness. Because of indonesia location in the Pacific Ring of Fire, it’s suffering from regular seismic activities which result in huge annual losses. This study investigates the earthquake data from 1992 to 2024 by applying clustering techniques such as K-means and geodata visualization. By integrating physics, geospatial analysis, and machine learning, the study processes earthquake data to calculate energy release and analyze spatial-temporal patterns. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is applied to reduce data dimensionality, while K-Means clustering identifies seismic patterns based on magnitude, depth, and energy. Visual tools, including correlation heatmaps and spatial maps, are used to present findings that support earthquake risk management in Indonesia.The results reveal temporal patterns in earthquake activity, with peaks observed in 2004–2007, associated with significant seismic energy release. Spatial analysis highlights high energy concentrations in megathrust zones. PCA and K-Means clustering identify three distinct clusters with varying correlations between seismic and atmospheric variables, indicating the influence of thermal and tectonic factors. These insights contribute to seismic hazard mapping, risk reduction strategies, and the improvement of earthquake prediction models. Future research should extend datasets and refine machine learning techniques to achieve more accurate predictions.

Abstract

This study was conducted to analyse the sediment characteristics transported by flooding in the Masamba River, North Luwu Regency, using the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) method. The characteristics analysed include the crystal structure and mineral content of the sediment transported after the flash flood on 13 July 2020. Sampling was carried out randomly at three points along the Masamba Riverbank at depths of 0 cm (surface), 50 cm, and 100 cm. The results of the study showed that the crystal structure of the sediment varied greatly at each point. At point A, the crystal structure at depths of 0 cm and 50 cm was Orthorhombic, while at a depth of 100 cm it was Monoclinic. At point B, all samples at depths of 0 cm, 50 cm, and 100 cm exhibited a Trigonal (hexagonal-axes) crystal structure. Meanwhile, at point C, the crystal structure at a depth of 0 cm was Triclinic (anorthic), whereas at depths of 50 cm and 100 cm it was Orthorhombic. Regarding mineral content, at point A, sediments at depths of 0 cm and 50 cm contained Titanium(IV) Oxide Phosphate (O20P4Ti5), while at a depth of 100 cm they contained (C20Cl10N6). At point B, all samples (0 cm, 50 cm, and 100 cm) were dominated by Quartz (O2Si). At point C, sediments at a depth of 0 cm contained (B3H3N12), sediments at a depth of 50 cm contained (Cs3F6Ga), and sediments at a depth of 100 cm contained (Bi38Mo7O78). These results indicate that the flash flood had a significant impact on the sediment characteristics in the Masamba River.

Abstract

The transformation of Indonesia's curriculum reflects the dynamics of social change, advancements in science and technology, and the evolving demands of globalization. This study aims to examine the development of the physics curriculum at the senior high school (SMA) level, starting from the School-Based Curriculum (KTSP), the 2013 Curriculum (K13), the Revised 2013 Curriculum, to the Merdeka Curriculum. The research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach by analyzing various relevant academic sources. The review focuses on four key components of curriculum development: learning objectives, learning materials, teaching methods, and assessment strategies. The findings indicate that the Merdeka Curriculum offers the highest level of flexibility, with a more contextual, student-centered learning approach emphasizing project-based activities and self-reflection. In contrast, KTSP is characterized by a more rigid structure with limited room for innovation. The 2013 Curriculum and its revision fall between the two, maintaining a scientific approach and authentic assessment that remain relevant but are less flexible. This study recommends intensive teacher training and the broader implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum to make physics education more effective, adaptive, and meaningful.

Abstract

This study addresses the challenge of engaging students in traditional physics education, particularly in Islamic contexts where integrating spirituality is often difficult. It presents a developed physics module for Grade XI students at MAN 1 Selayar that combines Quranic verses with temperature and heat concepts, using the 4D development model (Define-Design-Develop). The module bridges scientific understanding with Islamic values, and its effectiveness was tested with 20 students. Expert validation resulted in a high 0.94 validity score, confirming its scientific accuracy. Student feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with 90% rating the module as "highly practical," and 85% of students achieving mastery (≥70%). This exceeded the 80% effectiveness threshold, reflecting significant learning improvement. Additionally, the module fostered increased student curiosity about the connection between physics and Islam, motivating further exploration of scientific concepts and enhancing their appreciation of how natural phenomena reflect divine creation. Ultimately, this innovative approach demonstrates that physics education can effectively integrate academic and spiritual growth, offering educators a valuable tool to enhance both academic performance and faith-based learning in Islamic science education.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of differentiated learning in improving students' learning motivation in Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) subjects, especially Physics material about the earth and space in grade VI of SDN 1 Genjahan. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with research subjects of teachers and 28 grade VI students. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation, which were then analyzed qualitatively to describe the process and impact of implementing differentiated learning. The results of the study indicate that differentiated learning designed based on variations in student learning styles, namely visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, can increase learning motivation and student engagement in IPAS learning. Adjusting learning strategies to student learning characteristics makes Physics learning more contextual, interesting, and meaningful. Thus, differentiated learning has proven to be effective in improving elementary school students' learning motivation in science subjects and can be used as an alternative learning strategy that is responsive to students' learning needs.
