Abstract

Physics deals with the various events occurring in nature, whether naturally occurring or due to human engineering. It can be said that the subject of physics study is attached to the context in everyday life and technology. Physical knowledge is built on the results of physicists' inquiry, drawing on existing knowledge, empirical data, mathematical and statistical studies, and utilizing technology. So, physics is the scientific work of physicists. Therefore, physics has three characteristics, namely scientific, contextual, and evolving along with technological advances. Physical learning should go on like a working physicist. In other words, physics learning should be a miniature scientific inquiry. Learning with a scientific approach is also a curriculum mandate that currently applies to high school levels throughout Indonesia. It takes media and teaching materials that facilitate and motivate students to learn by scientific approach. Contextual based learning with a scientific approach will be effective and interesting when utilizing ICT. Observations have been conducted on ten schools in West Sumatera, to find out whether the physics learning on senior high school is going according to the demands and whether media and teaching materials are available according to the learning needs. The result shows that only 52% of scientific activities are conducted in class X and the learning media is only 35%. The media and teaching materials used in current senior high school physics learning are not yet contextually-based and also some are utilizing ICT in a useful way. One of the lesson materials that has not been supported by the media and appropriate teaching materials is momentum and impulse. Therefore, it is necessary to do further research
