Abstract

The existence of Eichornia crassipes plants is often regarded as a weed that can damage the aquatic environment. However, at this time, Eichornia crassipes can be made into handicraft materials and briquettes. This paper wants to reveal the physical concepts that exist in the process of making handicrafts and briquettes made from Eichornia crassipes. This research is a field study using observation, interviews and reinforced with literature studies. The results showed several physical concepts that can be revealed in making handicrafts and briquettes made from Eichornia crassipes, such as temperature, heat radiation, mechanical advantage. The process of making handicrafts and briquettes from Eichornia crassipes can be used as a source of contextual physics learning during the covid-19 pandemic.
