Understanding by Design (UbD) for the Physics Learning about Parabolic Motion

Abstract

In general, in preparing the lesson, teachers determine some components namely learning objectives, procedures, and evaluation and assessment instruments. Several problems in Physics learning on Parabolic Motion indicate possible flaws from the three components in designing the lesson. Understanding by Design (UbD) is applied as one of the alternative strategies to improve the lesson quality by considering the learning objectives, procedures, and evaluation by reversing the design, namely proposing the objectives first, evaluations as the second, and lesson steps as the last step. This is a qualitative research intended to construct an alternative design of Physics learning on Parabolic Motion using UbD. The initial Physics learning design was reviewed and analyzed by experts and revised until the final design. Understanding by Design (UbD) could be used as an alternative design construction as it helps teachers to relate the three main components, namely learning objectives, evaluations, and steps so it eased the students understand the materials comprehensively and obtain maximum score. Despite the development of current materials needs more improvement, Understanding by Design (UbD) can applied for many materials.

Effectiveness of Backward Design Lesson Planning in Teaching and Learning Physics: A Case Study

“…When teachers focus on assessment in classroom teaching, it provides a better opportunity to evaluate and scaffold students' learning that significantly adds to higher academic performance. These findings are consistent with previous studies (Hosseini et al, 2019;Kulla-Abbott, 2007;Kuntari et al, 2019).…”

Analysis of Implementation Project-Based Learning Model of Teaching Integrated with Computer Programming in Improving Computational Thinking Skills in a Classical Mechanics Course

“…An important aspect of projectile motion is linear motion on the x-axis and accelerated linear motion on the y-axis (Kuntari et al, 2019). On the topic of projectile motion, first, we study gravitational force, which only works on the y-axis and has no gravitational acceleration on the x-axis (Dilber, 2009).…”

“…On the topic of projectile motion, first, we study gravitational force, which only works on the y-axis and has no gravitational acceleration on the x-axis (Dilber, 2009). The concept of projectile motion on the x-axis applies for uniform linear motion and on the y axis applies for accelerated linear motion (Kuntari et al, 2019). Projectile motion is a parabolic motion depend on gravity (Halliday, 1985).…”
