Development of the Physics Practicum Apparatus based on Microcontroller: A Prototype Constructed from Misconceptions of Basic Kinematics Concepts
This research aims to develop a prototype of the P-PAM (Physics Practicum Apparatus based on Microcontroller), specifically designed to address misconceptions in basic kinematics. The method employed for the prototype development follows the ADPT model (Analysis, Design, Prototyping, and Testing). The misconceptions identified during the analysis process include: (1) If the object's position is in the positive coordinate, it indicates that the object is moving forward; (2) The acceleration of an object is proportional to its instantaneous velocity. The practicum apparatus designed to address Misconception 1 is intended to measure the distance of an object, with data processed using Arduino Uno and transmitted to a PC via Bluetooth. The distance data is then processed using Python to generate information regarding distance, velocity, and acceleration, which are displayed in graphs over time. The apparatus for addressing Misconception 2 presents initial and final velocity data, as well as the acceleration of an object rolling past two sensors. The prototype of the first practicum apparatus can generate real-time graphs of position versus time and speed versus time. The second apparatus prototype provides initial velocity, final velocity, and acceleration data. Additionally, the device can demonstrate uniform acceleration for different initial speeds, as the incline is kept constant. There are 7 out of 10 acceleration data that fall within the confidence interval at the 96% confidence level. The prototype we created can present scientific facts from two misconceptions in basic kinematics material, in addition, our prototype can be used in learning that focuses on conceptual change

Indonesia is a country located at the confluence of the Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates, which collide with each other, one of which is off the west coast of the island of Sumatra. This situation carries a significant risk of triggering a tsunami disaster. To minimize these risks, it is necessary to provide disaster awareness to all groups, especially students. This study aims to produce an e-booklet on integrated wave material for tsunami disaster mitigation on the outermost islands of Sumatra's west coast. The study employs a research and development methodology. The research instruments were questionnaires, interview guides, validation sheets, and questions. We conducted descriptive, quantitative, and qualitative data analysis. The research results led to the production of an integrated e-booklet for tsunami disaster mitigation, tailored to the region's potential in mitigation efforts. The level of disaster preparedness after using the e-booklet is included in the high preparedness category. The relationship between knowledge and level of disaster preparedness is linear. So that this e-booklet can be used as teaching material to provide disaster preparedness on the outermost islands of the west coast of Sumatra
Impact of Using PhET and NI Multisim Simulation on Understanding Electrical Circuit Concepts
The lack of physics practicum equipment in schools is one of the reasons why practicum activities are rarely carried out, so many students still do not understand the physics concepts being taught. Therefore, one of the aims of this study is to apply two types of virtual practical media (PhET and NI Multisin simulations) and assess their effectiveness. This research uses a quasi-experimental approach with a non-equivalent control group design. In other words, the study utilized two experimental groups and one control group. All students in class 12 of high school from five localities comprised the research population, and a purposive sampling technique randomly selected a sample of three classes. So we got a sample of class 12-1 science for experimental group 1, class 12-2 science for experimental group 2, and class 12-3 science for the control group. After the testing prerequisites were met, the independent sample t-test at a significance level of 0.05 was used for data analysis. According to the data analysis results, there are significant differences in conceptual understanding between students in the control class, PhET class, and NI Multisim class. The research concludes that lecturers or teachers wishing to conduct virtual practicums in physics learning should utilize the NI Multisim simulation due to its ease of use and its more suitable facilities for the topic under study

How Extensively do Teachers Train Students' Metacognition Abilities in Physics Learning in High School?
Metacognition refers to the capacity to comprehend and regulate one's own cognitive processes. By cultivating students' metacognitive skills in physics education, they will acquire the ability to understand and govern their own thinking. This, in turn, will enhance the effectiveness of physics instruction by fostering student engagement and enabling them to rectify their own errors. However, previous studies have revealed a scarcity of physics teachers who integrate metacognitive training into their teaching practices. Thus, the aim of this research is to investigate the extent to which high school physics teachers in the Riau Islands Province engage in metacognitive training for their students. Employing a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method, data was collected through interviews conducted with physics teachers from local high schools. This study's participants are physics teachers in the Kepulauan Riau Province. There are a total of 25 physics teachers participating in the study. The sampling technique employed in this research is purposive sampling. During these interviews, the researchers posed open-ended questions to elicit insights into physics teachers' experiences with the cultivation of metacognitive skills in their students during physics lessons. According to the study's findings, physics teachers in the Riau Islands Province are indeed training their students in indicators of metacognitive abilities. However, we observed that some teachers remain unaware that the exercises they assign inherently serve as indicators of metacognitive skills. This lack of awareness is attributed to a deficient understanding among teachers regarding the nature of metacognition
Enhancing Students' Learning Outcomes and Science Process Skills through STEM Project-Based Learning on Global Warming Topics
Global warming is a major concern, and tackling it via education is crucial. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of combining the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) approach with the Project-based Learning (PjBL) model on students' learning outcomes and science process skills in global warming topics. The study, which used a one-group pretest-posttest design, collected data from 33 grade XI students via essay questions and observation sheets to assess learning outcomes and science process skills. Critical indicators of science process abilities were observing, classifying, interpreting, predicting, applying concepts, communicating, and forming conclusions. Students worked on a STEM-based project to build a flood-resistant house over the course of five meetings (including the pretest and post-test). The findings revealed considerable improvements: learning outcomes increased by 0.6 (medium category), while science process skills improved by 0.7 (high category). Observations revealed that pupils' scientific process skills were excellent. The Wilcoxon test revealed a significant difference between students' learning outcomes and science process abilities before and after the intervention, with a Sig (2-tailed) value of 0.000. The study indicated that combining the STEM method with the PjBL model improves students' learning outcomes and scientific process abilities. However, the small sample size implies that the results may not be generalizable. The consequence is that integrating the STEM method and the PjBL model provides an innovative option in physics education, improving learning outcomes and scientific process skills
