Abstract
The scientific context as part of scientific literacy becomes the need to apply 21st century skills in learning physics according to the 2013 curriculum. The fundamental problem in this study is the ability of prospective teacher students to design saintific context in the physics material for senior high school grade XI is not optimal despite using a variety of literature and media. This has an impact on student mastery of all physics material of grade XI is still low. The solution offered is the provision of learning resources sourced from local wisdom. The Minangkabau musical instruments are one of the tangible local wisdom related with the physics material for senior high school grade XI, namely sound waves. The purpose of this study was to analyze of physics parameters for aerophone musical instruments from Minangkabau as context of meaningful learning. The type of research to be conducted is qualitative research. This research just arrived at the stage of data analysis Visual Analyser. The aerophone musical instruments from Minangkabau analyzed for physics parameters are “pupuik batang padi”, “bansi”, “sampelong”, and “saluang”. Data collection in this study uses the analysis of the results of the Visual Analyzer simulation and Focus Group of Discussion (FGD). The data analysis technique used is qualitative with three components, namely: data reduction, data presentation, conclusions and verification. The results of the analysis showed that “pupuik batang padi”, “bansi”, “sampelong”, and “saluang” can be categorized into open ended pipes but bansi can be categorized into closed ended pipes according fundamental frequency detected by VA. The conclusion of the research shows that parameters of physics on aerophone musical instruments from Minangkabau fulfill one of the attributes of meaningful learning, namely learning is a process of experiencing because it is related to the natural context and the ability to adapt to the surrounding environment.
