Abstract
Recently, IT literacy of the student in school is relatively high. Efforts to provide learning services that match the characteristics of the millennium generation will be one of the solutions to utilize this technology effectively in learning. Various open educational resources will significantly enhance personal learning activities; one of them is the physics magazine. This study is development research that aims to produce physics magazine on the subject of momentum, impulse, and collision. Learning features provided in this magazine include reading the concept, enrichment reading, crossword puzzles, multiple choice, essays, practicum, and so on. Various alternative activities are provided so that students can learn from anywhere they like. Physics experts and media experts validate this media. The result scores are 3.69 for the physics subject aspects and 4.18 for the media aspects out of 5. It shows a reasonable level of eligibility. Furthermore, this magazine was piloted on 26 students to see the level of interest in physics learning using this magazine. The result is a high level of interest (4.04 out of 5). It means that student can use this physics magazine to enhance the learning interest on physics.
