Abstract:
Limited facilities in frontier areas raised challenges in education. Physics education, in particular, faces difficulties due to abstract concepts, necessitating effective teaching strategies and media. This research aims to develop integrated physics learning tools in a virtual laboratory platform and implement them using the process-oriented guided-inquiry learning (POGIL) strategy. The study employs a development method based on the ADDIE approach and has an urgent need to create adaptive learning technology to enhance learning outcomes, especially in physics. The developed application is named Physics Fun. Research findings validate the effectiveness of the Physics Fun media. A trial involving 54 students from the University of Papua, Indonesia, enrolled in general physics courses was conducted. At the trial's conclusion, participants completed an online technology acceptance model (TAM) questionnaire. Students reported an improved understanding of the subject matter and an increased ability to conduct experiments previously limited by available resources. Physics Fun media proves generally effective, practical, and accessible anytime, anywhere for students.
