Therefore, several studies have developed e-modules to support learning, one of which is physics learning. This research is the result of a review based on a bibliometric analysis of the physics e-module. The data was obtained...

Astrophysics education is one of the subjects in the physics education study program which is also part of astronomy. Astrology is the structure and epistemology of Islamic law that studies the sun, moon, stars, and celestial bodies related to aspects of Islamic law. Indonesian Muslims cannot be separated from local wisdom which is the wealth of th...

The unavailability of learner autonomy-oriented physics teaching materials which are capable of enhancing students' science process skills (SPS) of students is becoming a hindrance in one of the public high schools in Banjarmasin, as well as the lack of SPS in students. Thus, this study was carried out with the aim to produce learning materials ori...

Learning in schools has a significant role in improving 21st-century skills, including problem-solving skills. The objective of this research to determine the profile of students’ physics problem-solving skills and the implementation of inquiry (free, guided, and structured) learning in senior high school. The study was conducted on 84 students of...

Arguments play an important role in determining how strong an understanding of science is. Training and increasing the level of student argumentation can be done in various ways, including by teaching students to argue about natural phenomena around such as the phenomenon of an annular solar eclipse. On Sunday, June 21, 2020, there will be an annul...

Authentic learning as a means that allows students to develop knowledge transferred to real-world practice. This research aimed at determining the validity, the practicality and the effectivity of the use of physics teaching materials based on authentic learning. This research type is a research and development using the ADDIE model. The subjects o...

Research has been carried out with the aim of producing student worksheets using the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) approach to train students’ critical thinking skills that are appropriate to be used in the learning process. The specific objectives of this study are to describe: 1) the validity of worksheets, 2) practical...

In the current research work, AuNPs-CNTs nanocomposite was synthesized chemically and decoration of AuNPs on the surface of MWCNTs was confirmed by UV-Vis, SEM and XPS analysis. Synthesized nanocomposite was utilized for its application towards non-enzymatic glucose sensing by modifying glassy carbon electrode with nanocomposite employing electroch...

In this study, researchers developed Lectora-based interactive multimedia on the topics of kinetic gas theory. This research was intended to describe the feasibility of interactive multimedia in terms of validity, practicality, and effectiveness. This research used ADDIE model design. The developed interactive multimedia was implemented on 39 stude...

Physics teaching materials for a junior high school in Banjarmasin have not yet contained the criteria for scientific literacy component. Therefore, a development is carried out to produce physics learning materials based science literacy based on validity, effectiveness, practicality, achievement of scientific process skills, and attainment of stu...

Cerium doped lithium cobalt oxide LiCo1-xCexO2 (0≤x≤0.08) compositions have been synthesized by a modified 'Pechini' process. The structural and electrical properties of the doped compositions were investigated through XRD, FTIR, EDX, Raman, and (EIS) experiments. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis established the formation of single phase crystallin...

p>The instructional media used at schools are not maximized. Therefore, researchers developed an internet-based instructional media using Prezi online software. The objectives of this study are: (1) to describe the instructional medium validity using Prezi; (2) to describe the practicality of Prezi medium as an evaluation from students’ questionnai...

The local wisdom is essential element incorporated into learning process. However, there are no learning materials in Physics learning process which contain South Kalimantan local wisdom.
