Scientific phenomenon of an object as a result of certain treatment on that object may indicate a phenomenon that can be studied and understood. Phenomenon in science can be reviewed through the symptoms that appear, such as: motion, change of conditions, phase changes, volume changes and others. These are the things that should be implemented in learning at the elementary school level, particularly on the subjects of science.

Pudak Scientific as an educational partner sees the need of an activity in which teachers from elementary schools are trained to understand the daily use appliance that can be applied to science learning in elementary school. Phenomenon-based learning is a learning model that summarizes learning ideas which are supported by substantial theories.

As such, on Monday, June 17, 2013, we have held a workshop on "Phenomenon-based Science Learning" which was attended by 19 participants from schools and corporate institutions, including:

1. SD Tunas Metropolitan, Tangerang - Banten Province
2. TK Metropolitan Tunas, Tangerang - Banten Province
3. PT. Vidia Multi Prima, Bogor - West Java Province
4. PGSD Department, UPT Laboratorium Dasar Universitas Trunojoyo Madura - East Java Province

The speaker at the workshop was Drs. Muslim, M.Pd. He is a lecturer of FMIPA Physics department and professor of Program S1 PGSD Kampus Bumi Siliwangi FIP – Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia.

The speaker simulated several experiment topics on simple device using daily appliance. Through this phenomenon-based learning, students are expected to be able to explain and apply the principle of lever, which can make the job easier and faster.

Participants who attended were trained and given the opportunity to perform interesting practices in the concept of science games. Some experiments conducted by the participants were:

• Whisky becoming water experiment
• 50 candle symptoms observation
• Inserting egg into a bottle
• Black obelisk
• Hanging a hammer on a ruler
• Lemon battery and other experiments

Each group of participants was given the task to discuss and present the results of their experiments. In that moment, a demonstration of sound and light intensity measurements using sound and light sensors were performed as well, so that the participants can know more about the development of today's science instrument technology.

This phenomenon-based science learning is seen more attractive, enjoyable and activates
students in learning, so it attracts the enthusiasm of workshop participants, especially teachers.
