The Analysis of Magnetic Electricity Physics Teaching Materials Based on Environment in Senior High School

Abstract This study analyzes the integration of green energy concepts, energy efficiency, and sustainable development in high school physics teaching materials on electricity and magnetism. This study involves 10 physics teachers from high schools in Medan, consisting of 5 government high school teachers and 5 private high school teachers who have professional certification. The sampling technique used is a mixed method that combines qualitative and quantitative data. The research was conducted in Medan, Indonesia. For data analysis, descriptive statistical techniques were used for quantitative data, while qualitative data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman approach. This study assesses the relevance and effectiveness of the current teaching materials. The research results show that the highest score of 73.25% in respondents’ perceptions is on the relevance of teaching materials to basic physics concepts, while the lowest score of 49.75% is on the effectiveness of the materials in enhancing students’ understanding of green energy and energy efficiency. This study recommends the development of more integrated and contextually relevant teaching materials to enhance students’ understanding and engagement with global sustainability issues. The implications of this study indicate that integrating green energy and sustainability into physics education not only enhances the relevance of the curriculum but also increases students’ awareness of their roles in addressing global issues such as the energy crisis and climate change. This approach supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 7 and SDG 13) and prepares students for future contributions to sustainable energy solutions.
