Advanced Earth Physics course is one of the courses discusses all aspects of physics that exist in natural processes occurring on the earth. One of the topics discussed was Landslide Natural Disaster. The purpose of this study is to discuss the use of online media and topography map in Advance earth physics classes to analyse the location of possible landslides. This research was conducted on students who are taking advanced earth physics courses for the even semester in the University of Riau, Physics Education Study Program, and 20182019 academic year. Students were given the concept of a landslide and guidelines for using Google Earth and on how to produce the topography map. Then students were required to do a mini project in terms of using Google Earth and Topography Map and to analyse the possibility of a landslide zone. Subsequently, students were given a questionnaire about understanding the material of the Avalanche that was studied with the help of Google Earth and topography map. The results show that almost all students fully understand and like what they are doing, as evidenced by an average score of 3.78 (scale 4) in terms of Google Earth's utility in studying landslide zones. Thus it can be concluded that the Google Earth media is very well-liked and can provide a deeper understanding to students in learning the concept of Landslide Natural Disasters in Advanced Earth Physics courses.

The purpose of this research is describe the reflective thinking profile of pre-service physics teacher students in Earth physics lectures about Ocean climate. This research was conducted in the physics education study program in one of the Higher Education Institutions in NTB Province, with a total of 25 respondents who had taken the Earth Physics course. The technique used in data collection is the analysis of the physics course syllabus and two essay tests about climate material that integrated with indicators of reflective thinking ability from Dewey's framework. Based on the analysis of the syllabus, it was found that the syllabus applied to the subject of earth physics had not been oriented to the provision of certain skills including reflective thinking skills. In addition, based on data analysis that the average value for question 1 is 18.75 and question number 2 is 16.75 where the maximum average score is on the understanding aspect of 31 for question number 1 while the minimum average score on critical reflection aspect is 7. It means that pre-service physics teacher students have very low reflective thinking abilities in Earth Physics lectures on ocean climate.Keywords: Reflective thinking skills, Earth Physics Syllabus, Earth Physics Lecture

Strengthening ecopreneurship plays an important role in preparing students for success in the life and career of students, but this skill is not well trained in learning physics. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of environment-based physics learning on students' mastery of concepts and ecopreneurship. This research is a quasi experimental research with one group pretest and posttest design. The research subjects were 29 students of the physics education study program, Surabaya State University, Indonesia, who programmed basic physics courses. The data collection technique used a conceptual mastery test instrument and ecopreneurship. The data analysis technique used the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Paired t-test, Wilcoxon test, and N-Gain. The results showed a significant increase in students' mastery of concepts and ecopreneurship at α = 5%, with mean N-gain of 0.63 and 0.60, respectively, within the moderate criteria. Thus, environment-based physics learning has a significant impact on increasing student mastery of concepts and ecopreneurship.

Electrical magnetic is a compulsory subject in the physics education program. One of the learning outcomes and graduates in the curriculum is to be able to analyze subject matter (pedagogical content knowledge). Researcher's observations during giving lectures on magnetic electricity showed that students paid less attention to the importance of understanding on the relationship between learning outcomes and teaching material during lectures. Thus, this phenomenon is appointed as one of the lecture evaluations in the study program. The lecture’s evaluation results in a recommendation to develop textbooks that are adjusted in learning outcomes and graduates that refer to the curriculum of the physics education program. It is not enough to stop here, the problem findings continue for online learning related to Work From Home policies during the pandemic. This of course requires the availability of references that can be open accessed. Hence, the researchers then attempted to develop electrical magnetic textbook based on PCK (pedagogical content knowledge) which contained material content and material content analysis according to learning outcomes and graduates in the curriculum of the Physics Education. This study aims to :  (1) determine the feasibility of electrical magnetic textbook based on PCK according to experts. (2) determine the  responses of students after using electrical magnetic textbook based on PCK. The research method uses research and development design by gathering information stages and references, designing, developing, product, validating, and revising the product. The research was conducted in 2020 in the physics education study program IKIP PGRI Pontianak. Data collection techniques are in the form of indirect communication techniques. Overall, electrical magnetic textbook based on PCK have been produced. The validation results show that textbooks have an average validation score of 77.77% with Eligible criteria. The students’ responses analysis show that textbooks developed have an average score of 78.52% with high criteria. After the revision, the textbook was presented with an online ISBN and open access on the online media

This study aims to develop students' communication skills in the Physics Curriculum Study course through the use of Digital Worksheets. The subjects of this study were 23 students of class 5B. The student came from the Physics Education Study Program, University of Mataram, who attended the Physics Curriculum Study course in the odd semester of the 2021/2022 academic year. The research instrument used was a student communication skill observation sheet with three indicators. Observations were made online at the Learning Management System (LMS) equipped with Digital Worksheets on the Discussion Forum menu. Observations were made every meeting, namely 14 times using a 4-scale rating score. The increase in score from the first meeting to the last meeting was calculated using N-gain. The average score of student communication skills is 79.5 which is in good criteria. The improvement of students' communication skills based on the calculation of N-gain is 72.7 which is in the high category. Thus, the use of Digital Worksheets can develop students' communication skills in the Physics Curriculum Study course.

In studying geosciences, students sometimes face some problems because occasionally they are not able to visualize the earth in their minds. This difficulty is increasingly moreover, if it concerns the distance and height of the topography of the earth, as well as the earth and its relationship to all aspects of life. In this study, the use of google earth as the learning media has been examined to help students understanding in learning geosciences. Students were given guidelines of google earth usage and then students were asked to create a mini project in terms of using of google earth. After that students were given a questioner that is questioned about understanding of the learned material with the help of google earth. The results show that almost all students are fully aware of what they are doing. They also gave an average score of 3.8 (scale 4) in terms of the google earth utilities in learning geosciences. It can be concluded that google earth is able to provide a deeper understanding to the students in studying the concept of physics of earth.
