Abstract
Collaboration skills are an essential 21st-century competency in physics learning, as they enable students to construct conceptual understanding through interaction, discussion, and collaborative problem-solving. However, previous studies have indicated that students' collaboration skills in Indonesia remain relatively low, partly due to limited motivation and active engagement during the learning process. This study aims to examine the effect of integrating Lumio by SMART, an interactive learning platform, with the Discovery Learning (DL) model on the collaboration skills of eleventh-grade students studying particle dynamics. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of the Lumio collaborative digital platform with the DL model, an approach that remains relatively unexplored in physics education, particularly in mechanics learning, which requires active student collaboration. This study employed a quasi-experimental design involving two eleventh-grade classes from the Engineering Expertise Program at SMA Negeri 1 Bululawang during the 2024/2025 academic year, comprising an experimental class (n = 30) and a control class (n = 30). The research instruments consisted of a collaboration skills questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale and observation sheets. The experimental class received Discovery Learning instruction supported by Lumio, whereas the control class received conventional instruction. Questionnaire results showed that collaboration skills in the experimental class improved from the moderate to the very high category, while those in the control class increased from the moderate to the high category. Similarly, observational data indicated greater improvement in the experimental class, with collaboration skills progressing from the low to the high category, compared with the control class, which improved from the low to the moderate category. These findings suggest that integrating DL with Lumio by SMART can enhance the quality of student interaction and collaboration during problem-solving activities. Further research involving inferential statistical analysis and larger samples is recommended to provide stronger empirical evidence of the effectiveness of this instructional approach.
