In 2020, higher education must implement online learning because of pandemic COVID 19.  Learning with the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) approach is rarely done in online learning.The first step in implementing the STEM approach on campus in online learning is to develop contextual learning media based on the STEM approach.This study analyzes students' needs for contextual learning media based on the STEM approach in Basic Physics courses in online learning. This research method is a descriptive study with research subjects are 141 second and third-year students of the Physics Education Program ofUniversitas Jambi and the State Islamic University of SulthanThahaSaefudin Jambi.The subject has completed basic physics courses. Data collection was carried out from preliminary observations and the use of a student needs analysis questionnaire.The results showed that students found it difficult to understand several topics in basic physics subjects.It is caused by a lack of instructional media, a lack of descriptions, a less detailed description of formulas, inadequate use of the STEM approach, and a lack of higher-order thinking skills for student practice.From the questionnaire results, it was also found that students needed learning media with a contextual-based STEM approach to help them understand the topics of Basic Physics courses in online learning.

The skills to construct and interpret graphs are a form of science skills and are an important component in learning physics. The purpose of this study was to describe the ability of undergraduate physics education students to construct graphs based on practicum data and interpret them. Data obtained through respondent answer sheets, thinking-aloud recordings, and interviews. The research was conducted at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) Untad and the research subjects of the Physics Education Study Program students were 6 people obtained based on the values of Basic Physics I and Basic Physics practicum II then divided into three groups of levels (high, medium, and low) with each category as many as 2 people. The results of this study indicate: 1) in general, respondents in the high, medium, and low categories can construct graphs but are not based on the prerequisite ability to construct graphs, especially in determining the x-axis and y-axis variables, 2) on the ability to interpret graphs, respondents can interpret graphs the relationship between variables on the graph but not supported by an explanation or evaluation based on proper physics concepts, 3) The strategy used by respondents in constructing graphs, in general, is to convert data in decimal form or scientific notation and 4) The difficulties experienced by respondents when constructing graphs are converting data, determining the scale and how to determine the variables on each graph axis.

The efficacy of different modes of instruction delivery, whether on-site, online, or a combination, continues to be debated in academic circles. This chapter takes a somewhat different view from most other research and compares students’ perceptions of support provided in the acquisition of various thinking and team-building skills, as a consequence of the integration of various activities, resources, and technologies (ART) used in an upper level Distributed Computing (DC) course. The findings indicate that students perceived strong support for their acquisition of higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) and team-building skills (TBS) from the offline resources, but moderate support from the online resources and technologies provided in the course, which was in opposition to the grades received. A deeper analysis of the results pointed, among other things, to the use of cases as being most supportive of the acquisition of the higher-order thinking skills and of team-building skills.
