Abstract
A challenge for freshmen in Indonesia, especially in physics programs, is the varied experiences with experimental activity. In recent years, most freshmen have not encountered a standardized experience with experimental activities. This research aims to establish a self-directed learning platform enabling freshmen to independently organize to perform basic experimental activities. This research also attempts to offer a straightforward practicum guide for physics teachers in schools with inadequate facilities and infrastructure. This project employed educational design research to create an online platform accessible at https://hcp.lab-fisika.id. This study develops digital modules that are accessible and may be adjusted to the practicum model for implementation. Four types of laboratory modules are available, i.e. cookbook, inquiry, problem-solving, and hybrid creative problem-solving. These results are projected to be utilized as an introduction and alternative for conducting experiments in preparation for lectures aimed at freshmen and teachers in the discipline.
