Abstract—The demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution require a focus on conceptual understanding and new literacies in education, especially in physics learning. However, in reality, students’ understanding and new literacy skills are still low. Overcoming this challenge can be done by using electronic teaching materials integrated with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). The purpose of this study was to promote students’ conceptual understanding and new literacy by using STEM integrated electronic teaching materials. The research conducted included quasi-experimental research with a post-test only-design research design. The sampling method used cluster random sampling. Instruments in data collection using multiple-choice tests and performance assessments. The results showed that students’ conceptual understanding and new literacy skills increased after using STEM integrated electronic teaching materials. Based on these findings, STEM integrated electronic teaching materials have a positive impact in promoting students’ conceptual understanding and new literacy skills.
