Abstract

In the 4.0 industrial revolution, students need to be able to think critically in order to keep up with the speed at which technology is developing. The purpose of this study is to compare students' critical thinking abilities in lessons using contextualized electrical KIT versus those using regular learning methods. A quasi-experiment with a control group limited to the post-test was the study methodology employed. This study used a sample of 73 students from experimental and control courses at SMP Negeri 23 Pekanbaru. Up to 10 items from the critical thinking ability post-test were used as the data gathering method. The findings demonstrated that the experimental class's average critical thinking abilities outperformed the control class's in every indication in terms of percentage of achievement. The experimental class's average percentage of achievement fell into the moderate group at 59.0%, whereas the control class's percentage fell into the bad category at 46.7%. Therefore, it can be said that using contextualized electrical KIT to teach dynamic electricity content helps students develop their critical thinking abilities.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of technology and the pressing challenges of global warming demand innovative approaches in physics education to foster students’ sustainability awareness. However, current learning practices often fail to integrate these aspects effectively, creating a critical gap that must be addressed. The aim of this research is to identify the gaps in technology integration, sustainability awareness, and teaching materials in the context of physics education. This study employed a descriptive quantitative method involving 45 high school students and 3 physics teachers from a state high school in Ogan Komering Ulu Timur, as well as relevant teaching documents. Data were collected through questionnaires, document studies, and sustainability awareness assessments, and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results revealed low integration of technology in physics learning, limited sustainability awareness among students, and insufficient alignment of teaching materials with sustainability topics. These findings underscore the urgent need for the development of ESD-integrated physics e-modules that bridge these gaps. It is concluded that such e-modules could significantly enhance students’ understanding of global warming and its impact on wetland ecosystems, and the study recommends further development of technology-based teaching tools, teacher training programs, and the creation of relevant educational materials to improve sustainability awareness among students.

Abstract

Based on the needs analysis conducted by the researcher, we found that 71% of students had difficulty with the properties of light and reflection material, and 75% of students preferred innovative books integrated with learning media over conventional books that were often used by teachers. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a handbook on the properties of light and reflection, which is integrated with 1-side hologram media. The purpose of this study was to develop and analyze the level of validity and feasibility of this handbook. The method used to develop the handbook is the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate). To obtain the validity and feasibility, the instruments were developed and distributed to expert validators, teachers, and students. We succeeded develop the handbook and it was declared valid with a percentage of 81.5% and 95.2% from the material and media aspects. This product was also declared feasible with a percentage of 81.4% and 92.9% according to students and teachers. Therefore, these results indicate that the handbook on the properties of light and reflection integrated with 1-side hologram media has been declared valid and feasible to use in middle school students.
