Grounding physics and its learning for building global wisdom in the 21st century

Abstract

Global wisdom is the values of the prevailing and internationally respected policies. One sector that plays a role in instilling global wisdom values is education and one of them is physics education. Learning physics means learning about content and positive values in it. The article was written by using qualitative research review methods in internalizing positive values and lead to the development of global wisdom in 21st century learning. This research aims to describe components related to the innovative learning and values of global wisdom. The data were the results of our qualitative researches and were supported by the results of researches conducted by educational experts. Grounding physics through innovative physics learning and trusted values of education can build global wisdom. Innovative learning is characterized by new models and provides alternative solutions to problems. Innovative learning oriented to the competences of students in the 21st century which determined by 4C: creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem solving, communication and collaboration skills. The skills will equip students as problem solvers so they can survive in facing the future. Physics education in a broad sense aims to provide multiskills and contain the value of "scientific wisdom" to face the global era. Physics learning that builds global wisdom potentially solve the challenges of internationalization, universalization, and supra-territoriality. The form of global policy providing students with values of respecting human rights, integrity, justice, humility, upholding order and peace, developing scientific and technological progress, and respecting beliefs or religions for the nations of the world. These values must also be internalized in the teachers's personality as row models for students and must be a belief and reinforcement for their profession.
