Department of Physics Universitas Negeri Padangen-USPhysics Learning and Education2987-4270The VALIDITY AND PRACTICALITY OF PHYSICS LEARNING MEDIA ON MEASUREMENT TOPIC USING GOOGLE SITES
https://ple.ppj.unp.ac.id/index.php/ple/article/view/238
<p><em>This research addresses the need for engaging and accessible physics learning media by developing and evaluating a Google Sites-based resource for the topic of Measurement, designed for tenth-grade students. This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) methodology, utilizing the ADDIE model, but was limited to the analysis, design, and development phases, which included comprehensive feasibility testing. The feasibility assessment involved two key stages: a validity test conducted by a panel of six experts (three UNP Physics lecturers and three senior Physics teachers from SMAN 5 Padang) , and a practicality test with end-users (three Physics teachers and 40 tenth-grade students at SMAN 5 Padang). Data were collected using validated questionnaires. The validity data were analyzed using Aiken's V statistic, while practicality data were analyzed using descriptive percentage analysis. The findings indicated a high level of validity, with an average Aiken's V score of 0.90. The practicality assessment also yielded positive results, with teachers awarding an average score of 93.6% (Very Practical), and students providing an average score of 84.21% (Very Practical). These results confirm that the developed Google Sites-based learning media is both valid and highly practical for implementation in the physics learning process.</em></p>Desi Ramadani

https://ple.ppj.unp.ac.id/index.php/ple/article/view/241
<p><em>Technological advancements play a vital role in supporting educational processes, particularly in the development of instructional materials. A needs analysis conducted at SMA N 1 Dua Koto revealed that teachers continue to face difficulties in designing technology-based teaching resources. Existing teaching materials have yet to make a significant impact on the improvement of students' knowledge and creative thinking skills. One promising approach to address this issue is the development of interactive teaching materials that integrate ethnoscience and meaningful learning principles. This study aims to evaluate the validity of interactive teaching materials on environmental pollution that are integrated with ethno-meaningful learning. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) design using the Hannafin and Peck model. The object of the research was the interactive teaching material itself. Data were collected through instruments such as needs analysis questionnaires, validity assessments, and practicality evaluations. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, particularly Aiken’s V formula. The results of the validation process indicated an average Aiken’s V score of 0.91 which falls into the “valid” category. These findings suggest that the developed teaching materials are both valid and suitable for implementation in classroom settings, with the potential to significantly enhance students’ knowledge and creative thinking skills.</em></p>Widia Efrisa WidiaAsrizal AsrizalHidayat HidayatiHayyu Yumna

https://ple.ppj.unp.ac.id/index.php/ple/article/view/183
<table> <tbody> <tr> <td width="604"> <p><em>Understanding the learning styles of learners can create a supportive environment so that learners can more easily absorb information optimally. This research aims to analyze the learning styles of students at SMAN 1 Lareh Sago Halaban with the hope that the results of the analysis can be used as a basis for developing edupark teaching materials that suit the needs of students. This type of research is descriptive analysis. This research was conducted at SMAN 1 Lareh Sago Halaban involving 56 students. Data were collected using a questionnaire designed based on the learning style model. The results obtained prove that students have varied learning styles, but are more inclined to visual learning styles, namely 55% of students. Some learners find it easier to understand material that involves hearing and movement. By recognizing the different learning styles of learners, edupark teaching materials can be developed according to various needs and improve learning effectiveness</em><em>.</em></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>Mauliditia Regita Cahyani
