The progress of a nation can be measured by the advancement of its educational quality, as education is one of the key instruments in human resource development. Physics learning requires students to be active in every activity. However, physics is often perceived as a difficult subject, and students tend to be less engaged during the learning process. As a result, many students assume that phy…
Pembelajaran fisika di sekolah tidak hanya berfokus pada penyampaian materi saja, akan tetapi juga pada keaktifan siswa dalam memahami materi secara mendalam. Pada materi kalor dan perpindahannya, banyak siswa hanya menghafal konsep tanpa memahami penerapan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Kondisi ini menuntut adanya inovasi pembelajaran yang lebih kontekstual, salah satunya melalui Lembar Kerja Pe…
Pembelajaran fisika yang efektif tidak hanya berfokus pada penyampaian materi saja, tetapi juga pada keterlibatan aktif siswa dalam mengolah informasi hingga memahami konsep secara mendalam. Materi optik memerlukan pendekatan yang mampu menghubungkan teori dengan penerapan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, salah satunya dengan menerapkan model pembelajaran seperti REACT (Relating, Experiencing, Appl…
Physics is one of the subjects taught in senior high school (SMA) that studies matter, energy, and the interaction between the two. However, in practice, physics teaching at SMAN 7 Pekanbaru is still dominated by lectures and lacks innovation in the selection of learning models, especially for momentum and impulse, which are difficult to understand conceptually. This condition causes students t…
IPA mencakup berbagai disiplin ilmu, seperti fisika, kimia, biologi, astronomi, geologi, dan masih banyak lagi. IPA memiliki tiga aspek penting, yaitu proses ilmiah, produk ilmiah, dan sikap ilmiah. Proses ilmiah adalah serangkaian kegiatan yang dilakukan dalam rangka menemukan hasil-hasil ilmiah. Kegiatan ini mencakup pengamatan, klasifikasi, prediksi, perancangan, dan pelaksanaan eksperimen. …
The background of this research is the low level of students’ higher-order thinking skills and learning motivation. The lack of higher-order thinking skills is caused by teaching methods that do not support such skills, weak mastery of basic concepts, and a learning orientation that is more focused on results. Meanwhile, the low motivation to learn is influenced by the lack of positive le…
In the 21st century, science process skills must be possessed by every student. This is because science process skills are one of the skills that must be possessed by students to be able to face global challenges. Based on the results of observations that have been carried out by researchers at MA Al Kautsar Pekanbaru through the distribution of a needs analysis questionnaire to 30 students of …
In the physics learning process, many students tend to be passive, merely receiving the material taught without delving deeper into it, and lacking in scientific process skills. Students rarely take the initiative to ask questions of their teachers. When asked to provide examples from everyday life, they tend to give answers identical to what their teachers have taught, and students are not yet…
The development of 21st-century science and technology demands that students possess science communication skills, especially in science learning. Based on observations and analysis conducted by the researcher at SMP Negeri 1 Kabun, it was found that students' science communication skills were categorized as lacking, with a score of 45%. This was indicated by various difficulties experienced by…
Physics, as an important part of science, aims to develop students' knowledge, understanding, and analytical skills of natural phenomena around them, but abstract concepts such as heat are often difficult to understand so that many students only memorize formulas without understanding the physical meaning. Based on an interview with one of the teachers at SMAN 7 Pekanbaru, it is known that stud…
Based on observations and relevant studies, it is clear that students' motivation to learn science, especially physics, is low. Physics is often considered a difficult, uninteresting, and unenjoyable subject by students. One cause is the learning model used, such as the monotonous conventional learning model. This model makes students bored and uninterested in learning in class. This contribute…
