Abstract

Physics learning requires an assessment process that not only focuses on achieving final results but also serves to support students' ongoing learning process. The form of assessment that plays a role in this is formative assessment. This literature review aims to examine formative assessment in supporting the physics learning process, particularly in terms of conceptual understanding and self-regulation. The method used in this study is a literature review by analyzing five national and international journal articles accredited by SINTA and Scopus published between 2021 and 2025. Data collection was conducted through a search of scientific databases, then articles were selected based on topic suitability, clarity of research methods, and their impact on the physics learning process. Clear, timely, and ongoing assessments help students analyze conceptual errors and increase student engagement in learning. Furthermore, the use of technology in formative assessment has been proven to provide effective feedback on student learning progress. Therefore, feedback-based formative assessment is recommended for consistent implementation to improve the quality of physics learning.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan merancang dan mengimplementasikan instalasi pengolahan air limbah (IPAL) domestik berbasis elektrokoagulasi di Pabrik kelapa sawit. Tujuan utama penelitian adalah mengevaluasi efektivitas sistem dalam menurunkan konsentrasi pencemar serta membandingkan efisiensinya dengan IPAL domestik skala kecil yang dilaporkan pada penelitian terdahulu. Sistem IPAL dirancang dengan kapasitas 1000 L/jam, dilengkapi elektroda besi dan aluminium, tabung filter FRP, serta siklus pompa otomatis. Analisis kualitas air dilakukan di laboratorium terakreditasi KAN terhadap parameter BOD, COD, TSS, TDS, dan pH, kemudian dibandingkan dengan baku mutu air limbah domestik (PermenLHK No. 68/2016). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penurunan BOD dari 47 menjadi 29 mg/L (38,3%), COD dari 118 menjadi 74 mg/L (37,3%), TSS dari 52 menjadi 28 mg/L (46,2%), dan TDS dari 506 menjadi 414 mg/L (18,2%), di mana semua hasil outlet memenuhi baku mutu. Dibandingkan dengan IPAL skala kecil, sistem skala besar menunjukkan efisiensi lebih rendah, namun tetap menghasilkan efluen yang sesuai standar lingkungan dan aman dimanfaatkan kembali untuk penyiraman tanaman. Hasil ini menegaskan bahwa IPAL elektrokoagulasi skala besar layak diterapkan secara praktis meskipun persentase penurunannya lebih rendah.

Abstract

The digital transformation in the Education 4.0 era demands innovative learning strategies that foster students’ cognitive development. This study systematically reviews the implementation of the STEM-based Project-Based Learning (STEM-PjBL) model in higher education physics courses. The research method applied was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA framework, with literature searches conducted through Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. From an initial 50 articles, 25 were selected for qualitative descriptive analysis. The findings indicate that STEM-PjBL positively impacts students’ cognitive development, critical thinking, and collaborative skills. However, challenges such as limited resources and educators’ readiness remain significant obstacles. Overall, STEM-PjBL holds great potential as an innovative instructional approach for higher education in the digital era.Keywords: STEM-PjBL, physics learning, higher education, cognitive development

Abstract

Science learning in the digital era requires innovation to ensure that students not only understand concepts but are also able to connect them with real-life contexts. This study aims to analyze the challenges of implementing interactive media in Science learning based on the Science, Environment, Technology, and Society (SETS) approach at the junior high school level. The research employed a mixed-methods approach with a case study design involving 30 students and 3 science teachers. Data were collected through student perception questionnaires and teacher interview sheets. The questionnaire results showed an average perception score of 3.97 out of 5, indicating a positive response toward the integration of interactive media and the SETS approach. However, further analysis revealed that although interactive media enhanced students’ understanding and motivation, their activeness, self-confidence, and ability to connect science with technology and social issues still need improvement. These findings indicate that the main challenge in implementing interactive media based on the SETS approach lies in strengthening students’ participation and scientific communication through more collaborative and contextual learning activities.
