Abstract

Objective: This study aims to analyze the profile of students' physics problem-solving skills as a basis for applying the digital book-assisted Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model to sound wave material at the high school level. This analysis was conducted to determine the level of students' problem-solving abilities and to identify differences in abilities based on gender as a basis for developing more effective learning strategies. Method: This study used a quantitative descriptive approach involving 108 high school students as research subjects. The research instruments included a physics problem-solving skills test, a student response questionnaire, and interviews with physics teachers. The test was compiled based on problem-solving skill indicators that included understanding the problem, planning the solution, implementing the strategy, and evaluating the solution. The data were analyzed using the Rasch model to obtain more accurate measurements of student ability levels and question difficulty levels. Results: The results showed that students' physics problem-solving skills were generally still in the low category. Most students had difficulty understanding problems conceptually, determining the appropriate solution strategy, and evaluating the results of the solution. Analysis based on gender shows that the abilities of male and female students are relatively balanced. However, female students tend to be more thorough in descriptive and evaluative aspects, while male students are more prominent in the solution planning stage. Novelty: The novelty of this study lies in the analysis of students' physics problem-solving skill profiles from a gender perspective using the Rasch model as an empirical basis for developing a more interactive and contextual 3D digital book-assisted PBL model to improve students' physics problem-solving skills.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) for optimizing the design of a rectangular microstrip antenna operating at a target frequency of 3 GHz. The research focuses on improving antenna design efficiency by predicting antenna performance parameters based on geometric characteristics. Method: The study employed a computational simulation approach combined with machine learning techniques. A synthetic dataset consisting of 6000 antenna configurations was generated using analytical microstrip antenna equations. The dataset included geometric parameters such as dielectric constant, substrate thickness, patch width, patch length, and inset feed position. A Deep Neural Network model was trained to predict resonant frequency, return loss, and input impedance. The trained model was then used as a surrogate model to evaluate 30,000 candidate antenna designs and identify the optimal configuration. Result: The proposed model achieved high predictive accuracy with values of 0.9987 for resonant frequency prediction and 0.9988 for input impedance prediction. The optimized antenna design produced a resonant frequency of 2.996 GHz, return loss of −18.70 dB, and input impedance of 53.95 Ω, which closely match the target specifications for S-band wireless applications. Novelty: The study demonstrates that Deep Neural Networks can significantly accelerate antenna design optimization by replacing repetitive electromagnetic simulations with data-driven prediction models.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the implementation, operational challenges, and strategic outcomes of integrating prophetic virtues into a standardized instructional coaching framework within faith-based primary schools. Method: Employing a qualitative approach with a multisite case study design, this inquiry examined the academic supervision workflows at School A and School B in Indonesia. Data were generated through prolonged fieldwork triangulation, encompassing semi-structured in-depth interviews with 16 key informants (principals, vice-principals, and teachers), non-participant observations of clinical supervision cycles, and institutional document audits. Data were systematically analyzed using the constant comparative method. Results: The findings demonstrate that transforming the secular GROW model into a spiritually responsive "Prophetic-GROW framework" successfully operationalizes abstract values amanah, lillah orientation, shidq, shura, ta'awun, and tawakkul into structured supervisory behaviors. This framework builds high psychological safety and mitigates evaluation anxiety, resulting in 62.50% of educators at School A and 65.22% at School B achieving "excellent" pedagogical mastery. However, the study identifies a persistent dual-role dilemma where heavy administrative and budgetary duties constrain the principal's coaching time. Novelty: Bridging the empirical gap between secular performance-driven coaching models and theological ethics by developing a comprehensive Prophetic GROW Model for academic supervision. The model demonstrates that integrating Islamic values into coaching creates a supportive psychological climate that enhances teachers' pedagogical competence and professional growth, thereby contributing to SDG 4 (Quality Education) through value-based teacher development and improved educational quality.
