Abstract

This study aims to develop a physics teaching module based on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) on Temperature and Heat for 11th grade high school students, integrated with deep learning principles and PhET virtual practicums, to enhance critical thinking skills. Due to time and resource constraints, only the first three phases of the 4-D model (Define, Design, Develop) were implemented. Three experts in content, media/design, and curriculumvalidated the module. Ten Grade 11 students from SMA PGRI Gelumbang participated in a small-group trial to assess practicality. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed with the HEOS % formula. The module achieved an average validity score of 96.58%, classified as Very Valid, confirming alignment with curriculum standards and scientific accuracy. Practicality scores ranged from 83% to 90%, falling in the Practical to Very Practical category, indicating students found the module engaging, understandable, and feasible within classroom constraints. The integration of PhET simulations significantly reduced barriers to understanding abstract concepts like heat capacity and energy transfer. The module’s structure supports student-centered learning and can be adapted to diverse learning contexts. By embedding contextualized problems and deep learning strategies, it effectively fosters conceptual understanding and higher-order thinking. The high validity and practicality scores collectively demonstrate that the PBL-integrated module is both technically robust and pedagogically effective for improving critical thinking in thermal physics education. Keywords: Problem based learning, deep learning, temperature and heat, PhET virtual labs, 4-D model, critical thinking.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) e-module with a flipped classroom approach that is valid, Applicable, and effective in enhancing the learning interest and critical thinking skills of Phase E students on the ecosystem topic, particularly the role of nyale worms in coral reef ecosystems. Using the ADDIE development model, the study was conducted at MAN 2 Mataram with 63 students selected through cluster random sampling, where class X-11 served as the experimental group and class X-9 as the control group. The research instruments included expert validation questionnaires, Applicable assessments, critical thinking tests, and learning interest questionnaires. The results indicated that the developed e-module: (1) is valid according to media and content experts, (2) highly Applicable based on evaluations by teachers and students, and (3) effective in increasing learning interest and critical thinking skills, as evidenced by MANOVA analysis. Integrated into the PBL model, the e-module combines local potential with a flipped classroom strategy, offering students an engaging, interactive, contextual, and meaningful learning experience. Based on the research findings, the flipped classroom PBL e-module on the role of nyale worms in coral reef ecosystems is concluded to be feasible, highly Applicable, and effective in enhancing both learning interest and critical thinking skills among Phase E students in ecosystem learning.

Abstract

This study investigates junior high school science teachers’ conceptualizations of deep learning within the context of Indonesian educational reform. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected from 39 science teachers in Cirebon through open-ended questionnaires and analyzed thematically using Atlas.ti. The results reveal that teachers define deep learning as a holistic process that integrates cognitive, affective, and psychomotor dimensions, emphasizing student-centeredness, collaboration, and meaningful learning. Teachers further articulated key principles of deep learning, including contextualization, critical and creative reasoning, innovation, independence, joyful and mindful learning, ethical awareness, and the ability to connect science concepts to real-life situations. The implementation of deep learning was characterized by project-based learning, authentic tasks, collaborative practices, backward design, and supportive classroom environments. However, teachers reported challenges such as limited resources, unequal technological access, time constraints, and diverse student readiness, indicating the complexity of translating deep learning into practice. To address these issues, teachers highlighted the need for systematic supports including sustained professional training, mentoring, peer observation, and high-quality instructional modules. The study contributes theoretically by clarifying teacher perspectives on deep learning and practically by offering recommendations for professional development and policy directions to strengthen deep learning in Indonesian science education.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the progress of ethnoscience research published on Google Scholar between 1966 and 2023, utilizing a computational bibliometric analysis approach with the assistance of the Publish or Perish and VOSviewer applications. Parameters including title, publication type, keywords, Citation, and year range were utilized to select the relevant data obtained from the Publish or Perish applications, resulting in a compilation of 252 articles related to the chosen theme, each spanning a period of 10 years, starting from theory, society, culture, and education, up to chemistry and physic subjects, supported by highly cited journal findings. The trending topics in the field of education are approaches and learning media. Based on the gathered data, it is evident that there are still numerous opportunities for further research in the field of Ethnoscience. The utilization of the VOSviewer application can aid in identifying problematic areas that can be explored as potential research innovation topics within the field of ethnoscience. Future research should explore the integration of ethnoscience with sustainability, digital learning, and global challenges while addressing gaps in knowledge and underrepresented contexts.

Abstract

Canva is one of the many applications that teachers can use to create learning media. Canva simplifies the learning process for teachers and students by combining technology, skills, creativity, and other benefits. This is because Canva’s design features can enhance students' interest in learning activities, increase their motivation and learning outcomes by presenting instructional materials in an engaging way. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of using Canva as a learning medium in increasing students' interest in learning and learning outcomes, and to find out how Canva can create interesting, interactive, and easy-to-understand learning. The data sources in this study are scientific articles published in national and international journals in the last 7 years (2017-2024) totaling 20 journal articles. Based on the analysis of the literature review of the 20 journal articles, it was found that Canva as an effective learning media in supporting distance learning. It was found that Canva as a learning medium is effective in supporting science learning activities in schools. Canva as a learning medium is considered effective for students in facilitating the understanding of abstract concepts in science subjects. The results of the study show that using Canva-based learning media can increase students' motivation and learning outcomes in science. Therefore, using Canva as an instructional medium is worth considering as a solution to improve the quality of education in schools.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of metacognitive strategies, STEM elements, creativity, and Assessment as Learning (AaL) within the Pancasila Student Profile Project (P5) teaching materials in Indonesia’s Kurikulum Merdeka. Utilizing a qualitative design, the research involved rubric-based analysis of 32 P5 modules and semi-structured interviews with 10 teachers from urban and rural schools. Findings revealed that while the modules address themes of sustainability, they remain narrowly focused and exhibit moderate integration of ESD (1.3), creativity (0.5), STEM (1.6), and metacognitive scaffolding (1.3). The materials often lacked open-ended problem-solving, project-based design, and reflective prompts essential for fostering creativity and self-regulated learning. Triangulated data showed consistency between module analysis and teacher perspectives, highlighting gaps in problem-action alignment and superficial STEM applications. Thematic analysis also identified limited teacher familiarity with AaL and STEM-PjBL, reinforcing the need for targeted professional development. The study concludes that strengthening teacher capacity, scaffolding inquiry-based strategies, and revising assessment frameworks are critical to enhancing the transformational potential of P5 for 21st-century learning.
