Abstract

The laboratory is a centre and a place that is representing the characteristic of science as a process through laboratory activity. As a process, scientific approach can’t be separated from laboratory activities. To understand the real laboratory, especially in a physics laboratory, we conducted laboratory activities by observing them through Participatory Action Research (PAR) as a research method. The role of PAR’s member is a co-researcher and co-observer. Totally, 90 pre-service physics teacher from three classes in a public university in Surabaya contributed as PAR members. From these members of PAR, some data can be captured by using photovoice that it can be easier to describe the condition of the real physics laboratory. The results of the study illustrate three themes of imaging physics laboratory in Indonesia: (1) the condition of real physics laboratories in Indonesia, (2) the readiness of tools, materials, and procedural laboratory activities and (3) The comparison of the physics concepts among students through experimentation and theoretical ways. © 2019, Beijing Science Education Innovation center.
