The learning of physics, particularly mechanics, poses significant challenges for high school students. Concepts such as Newton’s laws, energy, and three-dimensional vectors are often difficult to grasp using traditional teaching methods. Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a promising solution by providing an immersive and interactive learning environment. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of VR-based learning media in enhancing students’ understanding of physics concepts, with a specific focus on mechanics. An experimental design was employed, consisting of two groups: an experimental group using VR for learning and a control group receiving traditional instruction. Pre-test and post-test assessments were used to measure the improvement in students' conceptual understanding of physics. The findings indicate that students in the experimental group demonstrated a significant improvement in their understanding of complex physics concepts, such as projectile motion, force, and Newton’s laws, compared to the control group. Students in the experimental group also exhibited higher levels of engagement and motivation, with VR's immersive nature encouraging active participation in learning. The study concludes that VR is an effective tool for enhancing students’ comprehension of abstract and complex physics concepts, improving their visualization and problem-solving skills. Furthermore, VR-based learning provides students with opportunities to conduct virtual experiments and simulations that may not be possible in traditional classroom settings. The implications of this study suggest that VR should be integrated into the physics curriculum to improve learning outcomes, especially in schools with access to the necessary technology. Educators and curriculum developers are encouraged to explore VR’s potential in fostering a more engaging and effective physics education.

Writing skills are one of the essential basic competencies in developing students’ communication abilities, creativity, and critical thinking. However, observations show that many seventh-grade students struggle to write short stories in a systematic and engaging manner due to low motivation, limited vocabulary, and less interactive teaching methods. This study aims to improve the short story writing skills of seventh-grade students through the application of the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method. The research was conducted in two cycles, consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages, involving 30 students as research subjects. Data were collected through writing tests, observation sheets, motivation questionnaires, and field notes, then analyzed using descriptive qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results revealed an increase in the average writing score from 66.7 to 81.2 after the intervention, with the paired t-test results (t = 93.48; p < 0.001) indicating a statistically significant difference. These findings demonstrate that the classroom action method is effective in enhancing students’ writing skills, learning motivation, and active participation. The study recommends implementing interactive, reflective, and collaborative learning strategies to improve the quality of writing instruction in junior high schools.
