Sound and Light Waves, Optical Devices, and Symptoms of Global Warming. This research is a descriptive qualitative research. The subjects of this research consisted of five book publishers. From the analysis with the STEAM indicator, it is found that 60% contains the science category, 30% contains technology, 30% contains the engineering category, 50% contains the art category, 50% mathematics. The results showed that physics textbooks in circulation generally did not emphasize the STEAM approach. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
