Abstract

This study proposes an online practicum model supported by Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to implement a physics practicum after the Covid 19 Pandemic. This system is guided by exploratory inquiry questions to help structure students’ mindsets in answering investigative questions. Online practicum is also integrated with video conferencing, chat, evaluation system, and lab inquiry stages. The sensor measurement process is carried out directly via live streaming video, where the sensor measurement results are sent in real-time to the website via an internet connection. This study was conducted on 25 students (10 male and 15 female) who were prospective physics teachers. This study used a pre-experimental method with a one-group pretest and post-test design. The study results show that the online practicum model supported by WSN can effectively increase the inquiry skill of prospective physics teacher students. Usability test results obtained an average score of SUS 91.63, which means the practicum system can be categorized as having a user acceptance level of Excellent. © 2023 IOP Publishing Ltd.
