Abstract

Climate change is a global issue requiring a strong scientific understanding, particularly of atmospheric dynamics and the factors driving rising global temperatures. However, physics learning on this topic remains dominated by theoretical approaches, limiting students’ opportunities to analyze real-time data. This study aims to develop an Earth Nullschool-assisted learning e-module on climate change materials as an interactive, contextual digital learning medium that supports 21st-century skill enhancement. This research employed a research and development (R&D) method using the 4D development model, comprising define, design, develop, and disseminate stages. The study was limited to the development stage, as the main objective was to produce a valid and feasible model. The research subjects were grade X students of SMAN 10 Kota Jambi, selected using random sampling. The instruments included validation questionnaires from material, media, and pedagogical experts, as well as student response questionnaires. Quantitative data were analyzed using a Likert scale, while qualitative analysis was obtained from comments, critiques, and suggestions from validators and teachers. The results show that the e-module received a “very feasible” rating from the three experts and a positive response from the teacher and students. Thus, the Earth Nullschool- assisted e-module meets feasibility criteria as learning medium for climate change topic.

Abstract

Students' cognitive abilities in physics learning, particularly on wave topics, still need to be improved through more contextual and innovative instructional materials. Therefore, this research aims to develop a physics learning module on wave material in accordance with Case-Based Learning (CBL). In addition, it also examines its feasibility, experience and effectiveness in improving students' cognitive abilities. This research uses the Research and Development (R&D) method using 3D models, limited to the definition, design, and development stage where 12th grade students are the subject of learning. The feasibility of the developed modules was evaluated using the Learning Object Review Instrument (LORI), while the practicality was assessed through the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ). The effectiveness of the module was measured using N-Gain analysis based on pretest and posttest results. The results show that the developed CBL-based modules are categorized as very feasible and provide a positive user experience. In addition, the N-Gain analysis showed an improvement in the cognitive abilities of the learners, with most of the learners achieving scores in the medium category. These findings suggest that CBL-based physics learning modules on wave materials are quite effective and suitable for use as an alternative instructional resource to improve the quality of physics learning in high school.

Abstract

Creative thinking skills are a crucial competency required in 21st century education, where innovation and problem solving abilities are increasingly emphasized. STEM based learning (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is considered a potential approach to develop these cognitive capacities; however, a comprehensive synthesis of empirical evidence is needed to validate its effectiveness in secondary school contexts. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the implementation of STEM based learning in enhancing students’ creative thinking skills. This study employs a systematic review approach by analyzing and synthesizing data from various quasi experimental studies that examine STEM learning interventions. The findings indicate that STEM based learning consistently leads to significant improvements in creative thinking skills, particularly in fluency and originality. Project based, inquiry based, and Ethno STEM models are identified as the most effective approaches compared to conventional learning. However, improvements in flexibility and elaboration tend to be more limited, influenced by factors such as implementation duration, teacher readiness, and insufficient scaffolding. Overall, the findings confirm that STEM based learning is an effective approach for fostering students’ creative thinking skills and provides practical implications for educators in designing more optimal instructional strategies to support comprehensive creativity development.

Abstract

Conceptual understanding is a fundamental foundation in physics learning; however, numerous studies have reported that students continue to hold misconceptions that are resistant to formal instruction. One topic that is particularly prone to misconceptions is Newton’s Laws, which serve as a basis for understanding more advanced physics concepts. This study aims to profile students’ levels of misconceptions on Newton’s Laws based on diagnostic results obtained using a six-tier diagnostic test. This research employed a quantitative descriptive approach with a survey design. The participants were 132 eleventh-grade students from SMAN 2 Cikampek, selected through purposive sampling. The instrument used was a six-tier diagnostic test covering three sub-concepts of Newton’s Laws and analyzed based on combinations of students’ answers, conceptual reasoning, confidence levels, and sources of reasoning. The results indicate that although the sound understanding category showed the highest percentage (43.99%), more than half of the students were still classified as having problematic understanding, particularly misconceptions and negative errors. Misconceptions were consistently identified across all three sub-concepts of Newton’s Laws with a cumulative pattern, where the highest level of misconception occurred in Newton’s Third Law, especially in understanding action–reaction force pairs. From the perspective of misconception sources, students’ misconceptions were predominantly derived from internal cognitive constructions based on intuition and everyday experiences. These findings emphasize that instruction on Newton’s Laws should focus on eliciting and reconstructing students’ prior conceptual understanding in an integrated manner, so that persistent misconceptions can be reduced and students’ conceptual understanding can be improved.

Abstract

Low student engagement and learning outcomes in physics education are often caused by monotonous teaching methods, highlighting the need for a more innovative approach. This study aims to implement Game-Based Learning (GBL) assisted by Kahoot and examine its influence on student activity and learning outcomes in the physics topic of Substances and Their Changes. A quantitative approach with a Classroom Action Research design was employed, conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 22 seventh-grade students. Data on learning activity were collected through observation sheets covering visual, oral, listening, writing, and mental activities, while learning outcome data were gathered through cognitive tests administered at pre-cycle, cycle I, and cycle II. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, paired sample t-test, Friedman test, and effect size calculations. The results showed that GBL significantly improved student learning activity across all indicators, and learning outcomes also increased significantly. Thus, Game-Based Learning assisted by Kahoot is proven effective in enhancing student activity and learning outcomes. These findings imply that a game-based learning approach can serve as a practical alternative for educators to create more interactive and student-centered physics instruction.
