The selection of the right learning approach and the use of interactive media when learning is expected to increase the understanding of students' concepts. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of learning b…
Physics is a science that has an important role in the world of education, because physics is a tool that can be used to shape students to think critically, logically, analytically and systematically. Activeness in learning physics lies in two aspects, namely active in action (hands activity) and active thinking (minds activity). In addition, students will be active if students can relate new k…
Understanding is the level of ability expected by someone in understanding the meaning of the concept. Understanding the concept is a very important part in the learning process. The purpose of this study is to find out that the application of the predict-observe explain (poe) learning model can be an alternative solution to improve students' understanding of physics concepts. This study uses a…
Pembelajaran fisika merupakan suatu proses penemuan yang didalamnya terdapat keterampilan-keterampilan dasar yang biasa digunakan para ilmuwan dalam bekerja secara ilmiah untuk memperoleh produk atau pengetahuan yang diharapkan. Salah satu materi yang penting dalam pembelajaran fisika adalah materi hukum Newton. Namun ditemukan ketidaksesuaian antara kompetensi dasar materi hukum newton yang me…
Students science process skills are aspects that must be trained through hands-on practicals. In fact, the lack of adequate practicum facilities in the physics laboratory causes students to rarely do practicums so that students' scientific process skills do not develop. Along with the rapid development of technology, there has been an innovation in the form of a virtual laboratory as an alterna…
Sunlight can be used for the development of solar power plants (PLTS). The photovoltaic (PV) module is the main component of PLTS which can convert sunlight into electrical energy. The efficiency of the PV module can be reduced due to excessive heat from the sun. Therefore, providing an anti-reflective coating (ARC) is one solution to increase the efficiency of PV modules. This study aims to an…
Digital technology in the form of a drying oven is used for the drying process of a sample biomass fuel. It has been applied to replace the traditional drying process. This drying uses 2 types of biomass, namely Coconut Shell and Acacia Tree Branches. The biomass is used as fuel for the drying process in the drying oven. This study aims to analyze a change in temperature, humidity and heat with…
Poor water conditions are not only an indicator of environmental damage, but also a threat to the ecosystem. One of indicator water quality is determined by dissolved oxygen. In this research, an instrument was built to measure dissolved oxygen levels based on the susceptibility value of a solution at low frequencies of 1 Hz, 10 Hz and 100 Hz. A Magnetic instrument with an RC circuit are design…

This study aims to determine the layers of underground lithological structures in the Science Park, Riau University, Bina Widya Campus km. 12.5 Simpang Baru, Pekanbaru. The research location is an area that is often flooded, so research is needed to determine the cause of the puddle. Data interpretation uses the one-dimensional Schlumberger configuration resistivity geoelectric method. Data pro…
The increasing demand for hygienic, self-disinfecting and contamination-free surfaces has increased the needs for a self-cleaning protective material or surface. In this study a zinc oxide (ZnO) based self-cleaning thin film has been synthesized using a combination of the SILAR (Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption Reaction) method at the seeding step and the CBD (Chemical Bath Depositon) meth…
Physical activation can affect the quality of carbon electrodes so that it can improve the performance of supercapacitor cells. In this study, carbon electrodes were prepared from the Khalas Dates Seeds by varying their physical activation temperatures of 700C, 750C and 800C. Those samples were coded according to their activation temperatures, i.e. BKK-700, BKK-750 and BKK-800. The car…
The fabrication of activated carbon monoliths derived from onion skin waste for super capacitor electrode applications has been successfully done using different variations of chemical activators. The chemical activators used were KOH, ZnCl2 and NaOH, at a constant concentration of 0,5 M. The production of activated carbon monoliths was prepared through the process of drying, precarbonizati…
The increase in soil pollutant concentration induced by human activities has been increasingly concerning. Soil pollution measurement technology is required for soil management system to detect the heavy metal contamination.
