Abstract

This study explores the relationship between numeracy skills and self-efficacy among grade 10 students within the context of the Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) in physics, focusing on linear and parabolic motion. Employing a quantitative descriptive design, the research involved 140 students from a public high school in Bekasi, Indonesia. Instruments included a numeracy test comprising 17 AKM-based physics questions and a self-efficacy questionnaire adapted from Bandura's framework, covering the dimensions of level, generality, and strength. Results indicated that most students (53%) were at the "Basic" level of numeracy performance, while 67% exhibited moderate self-efficacy. A significant positive correlation was found between self-efficacy and numeracy performance (r = 0.743), with the "Strength" dimension showing the strongest correlation (r = 0.716). These findings suggest enhancing self-efficacy, particularly the strength dimension, can improve numeracy skills and AKM readiness. The study underscores the importance of tailored interventions to strengthen self-efficacy and recommends further research into additional factors affecting numeracy performance and interdisciplinary approaches to teaching numeracy across subjects.

Abstract

Critical thinking ability is a fundamental ability that every graduate must have in order to be able to adapt to technological and social changes in the 21st century. The aim of this research is to determine the increase in students' critical thinking abilities after learning using the STEM (Science, Engineering, Technology and Mathematics) integrated Project Based Learning learning model. The method used was pre-experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample for this research was 30 class VIII students in one of the Bandung City Middle Schools. The sampling technique was carried out using a purposive sampling technique. The instruments used were critical thinking ability tests, student worksheets, student response questionnaires and learning implementation observation sheets. Increased critical thinking was analyzed using N-Gain with an N-Gain value of 0.6306 in the medium category, and students' responses to learning showed positive results. From these results, it was found that the application of the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) integrated Project Based Learning learning model can improve students' critical thinking abilities. Based on the results of the discussion, the implications of learning using the Project Based Learning model integrated with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) have a significant influence on students' critical thinking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an assessment instrument on the Kinetic Theory of Gases (Boyle's Law) to measure the conceptual understanding, collaboration skills, and learning motivation of high school students in the context of the Independent Curriculum. The instrument developed consists of 10 multiple-choice questions to measure conceptual understanding and 10 questionnaire statements for collaboration skills and learning motivation. The development process follows systematic stages, including planning, expert validation, and empirical trials. Content validity was analyzed using the Aiken V index, and it was found that all items were in the high validity category. Empirical validation was carried out using the Rasch model through Winsteps software, which showed that most items were in the statistical range of feasibility (Infit MNSQ: 0.80–1.15 for conceptual understanding, 0.85–1.13 for collaboration, and 0.82–1.12 for motivation). The reliability coefficient ranged from 0.74 to 0.85, indicating high internal consistency. The distribution of the level of difficulty of conceptual understanding questions includes easy (30%), moderate (40%), and complex (30%), thus reflecting balance. As many as 9 out of 10 conceptual understanding questions were declared valid and feasible, while all items in the collaboration and motivation questionnaire were maintained. These results indicate that the developed instrument is valid and reliable as a holistic assessment tool in physics learning, supports the formative assessment that aligns with 21st-century competencies, and strengthens collaborative character and lifelong learning motivation.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an assessment instrument based on local wisdom that covers three domains in physics learning: affective, cognitive, and psychomotor domains, especially on temperature and heat topic. This instrument was developed to assess students' understanding of scientific concepts and attitudes after receiving temperature and heat material using interactive e-books, and remains relevant to the demands of the Merdeka Curriculum. The research method uses the Research and Development (R&D) approach with development stages including planning, compilation, validation, and limited trials. Data collection techniques include tests and observations. The cognitive instrument is in the form of a pretest and posttest with multiple-choice item types. The affective instrument is a statement to assess scientific attitudes such as curiosity, critical thinking, creativity, openness to criticism, and cooperation. The psychomotor instrument is in the form of an observation sheet to assess students' presentation skills. The results of the validity and reliability tests show that all instruments are included in the good category and are suitable for use, but improvements are needed in terms of the number of respondents and the number of items to produce higher reliability values. The results of this assessment instrument development not only support instructional practices, but also its primary contribution lies in its ability to evaluate the three domains of student assessment comprehensively, while simultaneously enriching the scientific discourse on holistic assessment based on local wisdom in physics education.

Abstract

Limited laboratory facilities and low levels of students’ critical thinking skills remain major challenges in physics learning, particularly on the topic of uniformly accelerated motion. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of using Video Tracker media in STEM-based physics learning to improve students’ critical thinking skills. The research employed a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, namely the Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The subjects were students of class XI IPA as the experimental group and class X A as the control group at MA Muhammadiyah Nangahure. Research instruments included critical thinking skill tests, observations, and documentation. The results of the paired sample t-test indicated a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores in the experimental group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the effect size value of 1.82 indicated a very large effect. These findings demonstrate that STEM-based learning integrated with Video Tracker is effective in enhancing students’ critical thinking skills and can serve as an alternative learning approach in schools with limited experimental facilities.
