Abstract

Argumentation abilities are critical for students to develop in physics learning, yet most studies focus on students outside pesantren. This research investigates the argumentation abilities of pesantren students on the topics of temperature and heat. The study employs a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The instrument used is a test comprising six essay questions assessing argumentation abilities. The data in this study were examined using a paired sample t-test, effect size calculation, and N-gain analysis to assess changes in students' argumentation abilities. The findings demonstrated a significant enhancement in students' argumentation abilities following the implementation of the ALIVP learning model. The effect size analysis indicated a very large impact, while the N-gain results classified the improvement as high. A detailed examination of argumentation indicators revealed that the highest increase occurred in claim accuracy, followed by the completeness and credibility of data, strength of backing, and strength of evidence. These findings suggest that the ALIVP model successfully enhances the argumentation abilities of pesantren students in physics learning, bridging a gap in current research. This study underscores the potential of integrating argumentation-focused learning models in pesantren to foster critical thinking in scientific contexts.

Abstract

Data-driven approaches have emerged for several reasons, including the continuous evolution of the education sector. Across various educational fields and levels, STEM integration in learning has been implemented. Therefore, this journal presents data on the role of STEM in Physics Education. The research discussion on the use of STEM in Physics learning can also serve as a coherent background and literature review for readers who wish to conduct further research. The literature review is conducted by considering the bibliometric perspective of publications related to STEM integration in Physics learning. This study supports the journal's importance by highlighting the need for reputable journal publications. The analysis aims to provide a comprehensive bibliography and review of STEM's use in Physics learning, utilizing the "Bibliophagy" function within the "bibliometric" package of R-studio. A total of 880 papers, published between 2014 and 2025, were reviewed. This study provides perspectives, namely a general overview, annual publication numbers, prominent authors, institutions with the highest citations per document, and countries with the highest productivity. This analysis generates journals, highly cited authors, reference networks, and groups with significant contributions to the literature. This journal can be used to improve the understanding of readers or future researchers regarding global research, identify research gaps, and support further research in this field.

Abstract

This research aims to develop an instrument that measures students' critical thinking skills in physics learning to test its validity and reliability using the Rasch Model. The instrument is called the Critical Thinking Test on The Light Waves Concept (CT-LiWa). The novelty of this research is to create a new instrument that is applied to the concept of light waves. The target of this instrument is high school students in one of the provinces in West Java. This research method uses the ADDIE model involving 72 high school students from West Java, Indonesia. The instrument used is a validation sheet and the CT-LiWa consists of 15 items in the form of descriptions. The trial results data were analyzed using the Rasch Model assisted by the Winstep program to obtain the quality of the instrument, namely reliability, validity, and level of difficulty. The results of the analysis show that the CT-LiWa test is not reliable but has a good validity of 27.6% in the fulfilled category with varying levels of difficulty. Therefore, the development of the CT-LiWa test can be implemented as an instruent to measure students' critical thinking skills on the concept of light waves.

Abstract

Students often struggle to identify and position themselves in physics class which is known as the conceptualization of physics identity. One of the contributing factors is the limited learning environment that fosters engagement and a sense of belonging in physics. This study aims to develop, validate, and test the practicality of physics learning tools in a non-formal context, specifically through a physics club. The research employs the Research and Development (R&D) design with the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). The instruments were validity and practicality questionnaires. The content validity was assessed by two experts: one physics lecturer and one physics teacher. In addition, the practicality testing involved one physics teacher and 36 students from Laboratory Senior High School UM (Universitas Negeri Malang). Data were analyzed through descriptive statistic by presenting the percentage of the validity and the aspect of practicality. The developed products include a physics club program book, a physics club activity module, and a physics club material book. The validity results showed that the program content achieved 94% (highly valid), the media and material validity of the physics club activity module scored 81% and 89% respectively (highly valid), and the media and material validity of the physics club material book scored 89% and 91% (highly valid). Practicality tests by teachers and students yielded scores of 97% (highly practical) and 77% (practical), respectively. Based on these results, the physics club learning tools are declared valid and practical for use in order to strengthen students’ physics identity.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of field studies using non-stationary calorimetric methods to understand the learning experience of science education students on the concept of nuclear physics. The study involved 72 science education S1 students who participated in an experiment to determine thermal power at the Kartini Reactor facility through a descriptive qualitative approach. The field study used reactor operation at a constant power of 100 kW by shutting down the cooling system to demonstrate the principle of heat accumulation. Students collected temperature data from three digital thermometers every 5 minutes for 35 minutes, then performed a linear regression analysis to calculate thermal power. Thematic analysis from student observations, interviews, and reflections reveals the development of conceptual understanding in four key areas. The students managed to calculate thermal power of 107.99 kW, 106.40 kW, and 109.08 kW with deviations in acceptable tolerances. The findings show that hands-on experience facilitates an understanding of energy conservation principles, heat transfer mechanisms, and experimental validation techniques. This study reveals students' ability to develop connections between theoretical concepts of nuclear physics and practical applications through authentic learning experiences.

Abstract

This study developed and evaluated a computer simulation–based Internet of Things (IoT) lecture module for the Artificial Intelligence for Science Education course to address the gap between abstract IoT concepts and classroom practice in science teacher education. Adopting an R&D approach with the ADDIE model, the module was structured into five subtopics aligned with explicit learning outcomes and supported by simulations, examples, and authentic projects. Expert validation (five validators: content, media, instructional, and evaluation) examined content, language, and presentation using Aiken’s V and Percentage of Agreement. Practicality was assessed via expert questionnaires (ease of use, attractiveness, usefulness, contextual relevance). Implementation involved a trial with 40 prospective science teachers, including a 5-point Likert readability survey. Content validity increased from 0.860 (valid) to 0.960 (very valid), and inter-rater reliability rose from 0.712 (fair) to 0.757 (good) after systematic revisions. Language validity improved from 0.833 to 0.950 (very valid); presentation remained strong at 0.893 (very valid) with qualitative enhancements to visual design. Expected practicality averaged 92% across dimensions (ease of use 91%; attractiveness 92%; usefulness 92%; contextual relevance 92%). Readability scores were consistently “highly readable” across seven dimensions (4.44–4.56), indicating clear language and style, logical sequencing, effective multimodal supports, manageable cognitive load, strong contextual relevance, and robust technical accessibility. The module is ready for classroom adoption, offering a scalable template for integrating IoT through simulations and authentic cases in preservice teacher education.
