Abstract
In this research, we aimed to design physics learning media based on Android apps on smartphones. Android apps are designed based on conceptual discussion, simulation presentation, video presentation with mini-quizzes containing cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. The media were tested to ensure their validity, practicality and efficiency for learning activities. We used the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation (ADDIE) model as the model of development. The media were tested through three steps: peer, expert and small group test. Data were collected via questionnaires, interviews and observations. This research produced physics learning media based on an application named Phy-Cast (Physics-Cast). Phy-Cast contains some senior high school physics topics such as parabolic motion, fluid statics and quantum phenomena. The results showed that the Phy-Cast learning media had good compatibility and there were no significant problems when they were used. The Phy-Cast application was tested, and the result was found to be valid, practical and efficient for learning activities.
