ENHANCING VISUAL INTELLIGENCE USING 3D E-WORKSHEETS WITH THINK PAIR SHARE ON MOLECULAR SHAPES
type: item
description: The understanding of molecular form materials requires a high level of visual spatial skills, but most high school students still show low visual intelligence since the content is abstract and there isn't any interactive digital media. The goal of this project is to enhance students' visual intelligence regarding the submaterial of molecular shapes by creating 3D-assisted e-worksheets that are integrated with the Think Pair Share (TPS) paradigm. The 4D model (define, design, develop) is used in this development research. involving 35 students in grades XI-3 of SMA Hang Tuah 1 Surabaya and three expert validators. Data was collected through validation sheets, response questionnaires, activity observation sheets, and visual intelligence pretest-posttests including four indicators: imagination, conception, problem solving, and pattern search. The results showed that the e-worksheets were declared valid with all ≥ 4 medians, practical with 96.43% student responses and 99.4% activity implementation, and effective according to the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test (Z = −5.165, p = 0.000) with an average increase of 56.90 points and all students experienced an increase in scores. The highest increase occurred in the pattern search indicator (64.24 percentage points). 3D-assisted electronic worksheets integrated with TPS have proven to be effective in bridging abstract molecular representations with students' visual intelligence, so they can be an alternative learning medium for abstract chemistry materials at the high school level.

DEVELOPMENT OF E-MODULE SCIENCE LEARNING BASED ON PROJECT BASED LEARNING TO IMPROVE CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS
type: item
description: Critical thinking is one of the skills students must possess in the 2013 curriculum, especially in 21st-century learning. Indonesia's low ranking in PISA results in the critical thinking category, ranked 64 out of 65 countries is important from this study. The low thinking skills of students are caused by students' critical thinking skills in science learning are still not optimal. Based on observations made by researchers in the learning process, teaching materials use more books so that learning does not run interactively. This leads to students' critical thinking skills being poorly trained. This research aims to develop teaching materials in the form of project-based learning emodules that improve the critical thinking skills of grade 5 elementary school students effectively. The development method in this study uses a 4-D model from Thiagarajan (1974), namely Define, Design, Development, and Dessimination. The instruments used in this study were interviews, questionnaires, and observations. The results of this study showed that the project-based learning e-module was valid with material validation results of 75.6%, media validation results of 84.5%, and language validation results of 81.25%. In addition, student responses from individual trials were 97%, in small group trials by 90%, and in large group trials by 87%. Quantitative analysis with independent sample t-test using SPSS 26 for Windows showed that there was an average difference in final observation results between the experimental class and the control class of 2.625 with a sig (2tailed) p-value of 0.000. These results were obtained from the responses of experimental and control class students. Thus it can be concluded that the use of e-modules in learning has improved students' critical thinking.

DETECTION TOOL FOR BORAX CONTENT IN MEATBALL FOOD
type: item
description: The use of prohibited food additives is still often found and is even increasing, especially among food entrepreneurs. Small industries or households generally produce these additives. One type of food preservation that is currently widely used is borax and formalin. This research aims to determine the tool's characteristics for detecting preservatives (borax) in food and the presence/absence of preservatives (borax) in meatball food. The method used in this research is an experiment using Arduino, TCS320 colour sensor, LCD, and mini projectboard. The results obtained in this research can conclude that borax is still used in meatball-type food. However, whether the seller uses borax on purpose or the flour used contains borax without the seller knowing it has yet to be known. The borax content itself dramatically influences the frequency value. Based on the results of checks using tools that have been made, meatballs in Wonosobo that are sold to the public have been detected to contain 15% borax. This amount shows a high value and is dangerous for the health of those who consume this food. This research is significant for people who consume meatballs.

STUDY OF THE CONCEPT OF MOVEMENT DYNAMICS BASED ON ETHNOPHYSICS IN THE TANGGAI DANCE
type: item
description: Culture in Indonesia is known to be very diverse, which has not been explored to its full potential due to limited access and minimal awareness of resources in preserving it. Physics learning is often still teacher centered with students becoming uncertain and feeling bored because they think this learning is only based on formulas. So local wisdom is needed with physics learning to implement the concept of movement dynamics with an ethnophysical approach by involving phenomena in students' daily lives to more easily understand learning. Regional dances are one of the local wisdoms that have direct contact with students at school, one of which is the Palembang regional dance, namely the Tanggai dance. This research aims to identify studies of the concept of movement dynamics in movements in the Tanggai Palembang dance. This type of research uses descriptive qualitative with a documentation study approach and the object of this research is the Tanggai dance. Data was collected using two methods, namely the training video analysis method and literature study and the observation method. The results of the research were a study of the concept of movement dynamics in each movement of the Tanggai Palembang dance, especially on the material of Newton's law when changing positions in each movement, moments of force and circular motion in rotating hand swings, conditions for equilibrium of rigid bodies, frictional forces on the legs when walking, and changes in points dancer weight. The ethnophysical approach has the potential to be an innovation in physics learning because it is able to train students scientific literacy to think critically through culture that is integrated into knowledge.

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TEAMS GAMES TOURNAMENT TYPE COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODEL ASSISTED WITH QUIZWHIZZER TO IMPROVE STUDENTS' COGNITIVE LEARNING OUTCOMES
type: item
description: Student learning outcomes are still relatively low because the learning model applied in schools is still focused on teacher explanations. Therefore, researchers conducted research by applying a learning model that focuses on students, namely the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) learning model. This research aims to describe the cognitive learning outcomes of MTsS Miftahul Ulum eighth-grade students after the use of a TGT-type cooperative learning technique on the foundational aviation curriculum using Quizwhizzer. This kind of research employs a quasi-experiment with a posttest-only control design. Twenty multiple-choice questions from a posttest served as the data gathering tool. Both descriptive and inferential analysis were used to examine the data. The descriptive analysis's findings demonstrate that pupils in VIII 3 have superior cognitive learning outcomes than those in VIII 1. This is evident from the fact that the control class's average score is 70.31 and the class VIII 3 students' average score is 80.47. The independent sample t-test has a significance value of 0.000, or less than 0.05, according to the inferential analysis findings. Thus, based on the findings of these two analyses, it can be said that students in classes VIII 3 and VIII 1 and VIII 3 who performed better after applying the Teams Games Tournament learning model to basic airplane material had very different cognitive learning outcomes.

THE EFFECT OF STEM LEARNING INTEGRATED WITH THE RSD FRAMEWORK ON STUDENTS’ RESEARCH SKILLS
type: item
description: This research aims to compare the effectiveness of two learning models in improving students' research skills: the STEM-based science learning model with a Research Skill Development (RSD) framework and the conventional learning model. This research uses a quasi-experimental method with two groups: an experimental class taught using an RSD-based STEM approach and a control class following traditional learning. The research instrument is a research skills test given in the form of a pretest and posttest, where each test evaluates students' abilities in all stages of the research process, starting from problem formulation to data analysis. The results showed that the experimental group experienced a significant increase in research skills compared to the control group. This improvement includes aspects of students' abilities in formulating hypotheses, collecting data, analyzing results, and concluding findings based on empirical data. In contrast, students in the control class showed more minor improvements, with most still at basic skill levels. These findings provide a new contribution to applying STEM-based learning models with the RSD framework at the science education university program, especially in the context of science teaching. This research confirms that the RSD-based STEM approach is superior in developing students' research skills and is relevant for preparing them to face academic and professional challenges that require substantial research skills.

type: item
description: Scientific literacy is an essential competency in science education, yet its integration with research skills remains limited in classroom practice. This study aims to analyze the scientific literacy profile of junior high school students and examine its relationship with research skills. A descriptive quantitative approach was conducted with 88 eighth-grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a multiple-choice test based on an international scientific literacy framework, supported by limited interviews. The findings show that students’ scientific literacy is at a moderate level, with stronger performance in explaining scientific phenomena, while abilities in evaluating investigations and using scientific evidence are relatively low. Furthermore, scientific literacy aligns with stages of research skills, where students demonstrate adequate ability in identifying problems but face difficulties in analyzing data and drawing conclusions. These results suggest the need for instructional designs that emphasize inquiry and active investigation to better support the development of both scientific literacy and research skills.

THE EFFECT OF THE FLICT MODEL ON BIOLOGY STUDENTS' HIGHER-ORDER THINKING SKILLS IN AN ANIMAL ECOLOGY COURSE
type: item
description: Students’ mastery of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) remains suboptimal. A new instructional model, the Flipped Learning Model with Case-based Tournament (FliCT Model), has been expert-validated to facilitate improvements in students’ HOTS. The FliCT Model integrates the principles of the case-based method and Team Games Tournament within a flipped learning framework. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the FliCT Model on a limited scale in improving HOTS-domain learning outcomes among undergraduate students of the Biology Education program. A total of 34 undergraduate students from the Biology Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Lampung, enrolled in Animal Ecology courses, participated in this pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-test–post-test design. The research data were collected using a validated instrument for the HOTS domain cognitive learning outcome test, which includes aspects of analyzing, evaluating, and creating. The data analysis used was the Wilcoxon test and the N-Gain test. The model design validation confirmed that the FliCT Model is highly valid (88.6). The Wilcoxon test indicated a significant improvement in students’ HOTS-domain learning outcomes after the implementation of the model (p<0,05), while the N-gain analysis showed a moderate level of improvement (0.49). These results demonstrate the effectiveness of the FliCT Model in enhancing students’ HOTS, particularly critical thinking, through the integration of case-based, competitive, and collaborative activities within a flipped learning framework. Further large-scale studies are required to establish the generalizability of these findings.

CREATIVE THINKING SKILLS OF PRE-SERVICE SCIENCE TEACHERS BASED ON THE PISA FRAMEWORK
type: item
description: Creative thinking is one of the essential skills required in the twenty-first century and constitutes a core component of the pedagogical and professional competencies that teachers are expected to possess. In response to this urgency, this present study aimed to examine the profile of creative thinking among pre-service science teachers using the PISA framework. The research instrument employed three PISA 2022 creative thinking test items to measure creative thinking scores and to classify the creative thinking levels of 61 pre-service science teachers. Within the PISA framework, creative thinking is operationalized through 3 competencies: Generate Diverse Ideas (GDI), Generate Creative Ideas (GCI), and Evaluate and Improve Ideas (EII). A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional research design of population in time was applied in November 2025 and evaluated with the RASCH model, descriptive, and discriminant analysis. The RASCH model analysis indicated high item reliability but low person reliability, which can be attributed to the limited number of test items used in the assessment. The RASCH analysis also confirmed variations in the levels of the GDI, GCI, and EII competencies. Descriptive analysis revealed that the majority of pre-service science teachers were classified within the moderate and low creative thinking categories, while only a small proportion reached the high category based on frequency distribution results. Furthermore, discriminant analysis demonstrated that the GDI and EII competencies served as the primary predictors for classifying individuals into creative thinking categories. This study contributes by providing an empirical overview of the creative thinking skills profile of pre-service science teachers and highlighting the importance of strengthening GDI and EII competencies in the design of science learning in schools.

EVALUATING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE MERDEKA CURRICULUM IN SCIENCE LEARNING ON JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’ SCIENTIFIC LITERACY
type: item
description: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Merdeka Curriculum in science education on the scientific literacy skills of junior high school students. The study uses an evaluative approach with the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model, with a primary focus on the product aspect that reviews the achievements and impact of learning on students' scientific literacy. Quantitative data were obtained through scientific literacy tests, while qualitative data were collected through teacher questionnaires. Quantitative data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with an ideal criterion value of 84. The results showed that students' scientific literacy scores were still statistically below this criterion value. The average percentage of student scientific literacy achievement was in the range of 36-40%, which falls into the nominal scientific literacy category. These findings indicate that students are still limited to the introduction of basic science concepts and are not yet fully able to apply and evaluate these concepts in real-life contexts. Although teachers perceive an increase in learning outcomes and scientific literacy after the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, this increase is not yet optimal. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the implementation of contextual and project-based learning so that the goal of increasing scientific literacy can be achieved more effectively.

EXPLORING TEACHER AND STUDENT NEEDS FOR AUGMENTED REALITY–BASED STEM EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN INTEGRATED SCIENCE LEARNING
type: item
description: The integration of STEM and Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in Integrated Science and Social Sciences learning remains limited due to conventional teaching methods, low interactivity, and inadequate learning resources, which hinder students’ conceptual understanding and engagement. This study explores the needs of teachers and students in implementing Augmented Reality (AR)–based STEM–ESD learning as a basis for developing effective Integrated Science and Social Sciences learning tools. The study employed an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection. Questionnaires were administered to 24 teachers and 92 students to identify general needs and perceptions, followed by semi-structured interviews with 16 students to obtain deeper insights into their learning experiences and expectations. The results indicate that teachers demonstrate partial readiness in integrating STEM–ESD and prefer AR learning tools that enhance conceptual clarity, provide structured instructional guidance, and align with curriculum competencies. Students reported limited engagement with existing learning materials, difficulties in understanding abstract concepts, and strong interest in AR-supported learning, emphasizing the need for accessible, interactive, and curriculum-relevant media. These findings suggest that AR-based learning tools should prioritize visual clarity, intuitive interfaces, and real-world contextualization to address current instructional gaps. The implications of this study highlight the importance of need-based AR learning design for supporting effective STEM–ESD integration, informing the development of innovative learning tools, and guiding teacher preparation and professional development in implementing technology-enhanced sustainable education.
