Problem-solving skills are a 21st-century competency that students must possess in physics learning, but field observations indicate that achievement remains low. This study aims to analyze the need for developing STEM-based Electronic Student Worksheets oriented toward local wisdom to facilitate problem-solving skills in temperature and heat materials. Using the 4-D development model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate), this research focuses on the Define stage. Data were collected from 3 physics teachers and 34 students of grade XI F1 at SMAN 1 Linggo Sari Baganti using problem-solving ability tests, teacher interview guidelines, and student characteristics questionnaires. The results of the analysis showed that the average problem-solving ability of students is low at 52%, with achievement across five indicators as follows: useful description (52%), physics approach (53%), specific application of physics (49%), mathematical procedures (52%), and logical progression (54%). Furthermore, data revealed that 67.7% of students fall into the poor and very poor categories, while only 11.8% reach the very good category. Interview results confirmed that the teaching materials currently used are 100% conventional and have not yet integrated STEM approaches or local wisdom contexts. Questionnaire data indicated that while students demonstrate high readiness for technology-integrated learning, their current motivation is hindered by monotonous printed materials. This study concludes that there is an urgent need to develop interactive STEM-based Electronic Student Worksheets integrated with local wisdom to bridge the gap between physics theory and students' daily lives. The development of such innovative learning tools is essential to create more interactive, contextual, and effective learning environments that can significantly improve students' problem-solving skills.
