B.Ed. Physics Education
The Bachelor of Education in Physics prepares future educators to lead innovative physics learning in schools and beyond. Rooted in LABIRIN-based learning (pembeLAjaran BerbasIs seRu, Interaktif, dan uNik) and develop research addressing physics teaching challenges. It aims to graduate educators who embody 21st-century skills and can coach physics olympiads.
Designed for full-time study over 8 semesters (144 CSU ≈ 240 ECTS), this programme develops graduates who are not only physics teachers, but also Olympiad coaches and edu-entrepreneurs capable of designing impactful learning experiences.
Programme Learning Outcomes (PLOs)
The 13 PLOs span Attitudes, General Competencies, Specific Competencies, and Knowledge (TPACK), ensuring holistic professional formation:
- Practice the spirituality and fundamental values of Parahyangan Catholic University (SINDU), faith in God, and loyalty to Pancasila.
- Internalise the spirit of independence, perseverance, and entrepreneurship; take responsibility for professional tasks individually and in groups.
- Communicate ideas systematically and creatively; perform effectively both independently and in interdisciplinary settings.
- Evaluate scientific and artistic works interdisciplinarily based on verum–bonum– pulchrum.
- Apply logical, critical, creative, and innovative thinking to solve scientific problems; manage self‑learning; communicate effectively; and make ethical decisions that respect human values.
- Apply pedagogical concepts, conduct physics teaching, and develop learning tools based on instructional‑design principles and technological developments while practising 21st‑century skills.
- Apply critical and creative thinking to develop effective problem‑solving strategies for learning physics concepts.
- Use research skills to solve problems and improve the quality of physics learning through classroom research.
- Manage resources and make strategic decisions related to classrooms, physics laboratories, and educational institutions.
- Integrate Technology, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge (TPACK) for effective, contextual physics learning.
- Master physics and related science concepts comprehensively and creatively by utilising mathematics.
- Apply research methodologies to improve the quality of physics learning in schools and to solve problems in physics education.
- Master management and entrepreneurship theories in education, leveraging information and communication technology.
Teacher competence is primarily strengthened through Pedagogy (PLO-06) and TPACK (PLO-10), while Olympiad coaching excellence is built through deep physics mastery (PLO-11).
