Abstract

The pandemic is an infectious disease with widespread transmission across countries, impacting various sectors, including education, particularly in the resumption of learning activities such as in-person practical sessions. This study aims to explore the implementation of physics practical activities at SMAN 4 North Toraja as it enters the endemic phase of Covid-19. Data collection techniques used in this study include questionnaires and interview guidelines. Based on the results of the research conducted at SMAN 4 North Toraja regarding the exploration of physics practical activities during the transition into the Covid-19 endemic phase, it can be concluded that physics practical activities during the transition into the endemic phase have been carried out. Student responses to the practical activities were high in the aspect of feelings, high in the aspect of engagement, very high in the aspect of attention, and high in the aspect of time management. The challenges encountered during the practical sessions include teachers facing difficulties in controlling and guiding students, as well as a lack of proficiency in using practical tools.
