he Research in Phyiscs Education (RiPE) is firmly established as an authoritative voice in the world of phyiscs education. RiPE publishes scholarly papers that focus on the teaching and learning of physics in school settings ranging from primary education to university education. It bridges the gap between research and practice, providing information, ideas and opinion. As a truly international journal, RiPE welcomes contributions from any country provided that the authors explain their local contexts and demonstrate the significance of their work for a global readership. RiPE is concerned with physics education but also welcomes manuscripts on the integration of physics education with other disciplines, in particular, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) or, and the arts. Submissions that are concerned with physics (as distinct with physics education) or with general educational matters will not be considered for publication.

Abstract

This research was conducted based on the importance of motivation and understanding of concepts at the elementary school level. Learning with a PhET-based virtual laboratory is an innovative approach in science education that can help visualize abstract concepts. A quantitative descriptive method was chosen for this study, with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of fourth-grade students from public primary schools in Indonesia. The instruments used in this study were observation guidelines, questionnaires, and test questions. The results showed that the implementation of PhET-based virtual laboratory learning received an average score of 97.77%, which is considered very good. Motivation after learning with the PhET-based virtual laboratory had an average score of 71%, indicating a good level. Students' conceptual understanding increased after the implementation of PhET-based virtual laboratory learning, with the average pretest score rising from 55.8% to a posttest score of 77.2%.

Abstract

This research was conducted to emphasize the significance of positive learning interest and deep understanding of concepts among students. Culture-based learning serves as an alternative pedagogical approach aimed at enhancing students’ interest and comprehension of concepts. Quantitative descriptive methodology was employed, utilizing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The research sample comprised fifth-grade students from a public elementary school in Indonesia. The research instruments included observation guidelines, questionnaires, and test questions. The findings revealed that the implementation of culture-based learning yielded an average score of 94%, indicating a very good outcome. Students’ interest in learning significantly improved following culture-based instruction, with an average score of 85.92%. Moreover, students’ understanding of concepts showed notable enhancement post-treatment, with average scores rising from 59% in the pretest to 81% in the posttest.

Abstract

The implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka presents challenges for educational units that adopt it. In physics learning, students often engage in projects that start with problem-solving. Therefore, this study aims to understand the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka in high school physics learning activities. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach, utilizing questionnaires and interviews for data collection, and data analysis through questionnaires. Interview data is analyzed using thematic analysis. The sample is selected using purposive sampling with participants spread across 4 schools, 4 physics teachers, and 160 students offline. The results of the questionnaire data show that students agree with the Kurikulum Merdeka from the aspect of using teaching tools, with 92% agreeing and 8% strongly agreeing; however, textbooks and worksheets are rarely used. From the aspect of project strengthening of the Pancasila student profile, 87% agree and 13% strongly agree. Interview results reveal that students do not fully understand the physics concepts within the projects. From the aspect of learning outcomes, 91% agree and 9% strongly agree. In contrast, interview results with teachers indicate that teaching tools are created according to the school’s conditions. Furthermore, the implementation of Pancasila student profile in the context of physics learning is not directly related to the physics subject but is mandatory for educational units. Learning outcomes in physics involve spirituality, independence, teamwork, global diversity, and critical thinking.

Abstract

Preconceptions are an essential foundation for students, serving as a basis for more effective learning. In the context of climate change concepts, many students harbor misconceptions. One method to uncover students’ preconceptions is through the use of visual representations. Visual representations can elucidate students’ understanding of abstract and complex concepts. This study aims to examine and analyze the extent of high school students’ comprehension of climate change. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with a population and sample comprising 63 tenth-grade science students from a high school in Indonesia. Data collection techniques included observation and interviews, with semi-structured interviews being utilized in this study. The results reveal that students have varied understandings of the concept of climate change, with many exhibiting misconceptions. The study identifies three categories of climate change concepts: (1) correct concepts of climate change, representing 37%; (2) climate change concepts based on objects, as depicted in the visualizations provided by the respondents; and (3) incorrect concepts of climate change, representing 63%. Based on empirical evidence, the students’ preconceptions of climate change are predominantly at the macroscopic level.

Abstract

The difficulty of presenting teaching aids in the classroom makes it challenging for students to understand the material on sound waves, as sound waves are difficult to observe with the naked eye. Therefore, a learning model that facilitates student comprehension of sound waves is needed. This study aims to investigate the impact of a cooperative learning model using peer tutoring on students' understanding of sound wave concepts. The research method employed is quantitative, utilizing a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group. The study involved 76 students divided into experimental and control classes. The instrument used was a multiple-choice test consisting of 15 questions. The study was conducted over three sessions, starting with a pre-test in the first session and concluding with a post-test in the final session to determine the effect of the tested variable. The results indicate that the cooperative learning model with peer tutoring significantly affects students' conceptual understanding, with an average score of 64.04 in the experimental class compared to 53.86 in the control class. Additionally, the N-Gain test results show 41% improvement, categorized as moderate. Analysis of concept comprehension revealed an increase in understanding, with approximately 88.16% of students mastering the interpretation aspect of the concept.
