Abstract

This study aims to reconstruct physics concepts embedded in the Sasak Arak-arakan besunat tradition using praje into formal physics knowledge as a contextual ethnoscience-based learning resource supporting SDG 4 (Quality Education). The study employed a qualitative descriptive method with an ethnographic-ethnoscience approach. Data was collected through interviews, observations and documentation and scientific verification involving traditional leaders, praje craftsmen and parents in East Lombok. The data were analyzed through data reduction, identification of indigenous knowledge, scientific verification and reconstruction into school science concepts. The findings show that the tradition contains several contextual physics concepts, including Newton’s Laws, center of mass and dynamic equilibrium in maintaining praje stability, work and changes in potential and kinetic energy during lifting activities, impulse and momentum in drumstick collisions on gendang beleq, sound resonance in traditional musical instruments and uniform as well as accelerated motion during the procession. These concepts are empirically applied in community practices and can be scientifically reconstructed into formal physics learning concepts. The integration of indigenous knowledge has the potential to enhance students’ conceptual understanding and cultural literacy through contextual learning experiences.

Abstract

This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications regarding web-based e-modules in science education over the 2017–2026 period. Data were retrieved from the Dimensions.ai database (830 publications) and Google Scholar (859 publications), subsequently analyzed using VOSviewer software to identify publication trends, country contributions, collaboration patterns, and keyword clusters. The results indicate a significant increase in the number of publications, particularly since 2020 due to the acceleration of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, reaching a peak in 2025. Indonesia dominates in terms of publication volume (210 documents), followed by the United States and China, although the latter two countries exhibit higher citation impacts and collaboration strengths. Keyword analysis reveals a primary focus on the integration of web technology with innovative pedagogical approaches such as STEM, Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Project-Based Learning (PjBL), augmented reality, Google Sites, flipbooks, and the development of 21st-century skills (critical thinking, self-regulation, digital literacy, and ethnoscience). The trends have evolved from simple material digitalization toward interactive, adaptive, and student-centered learning ecosystems, including the integration of AI, gamification, and local wisdom. This research identifies gaps such as the lack of equitable international collaboration, a shortage of long-term evaluations, and the limited integration of advanced technologies. Consequently, it is recommended that future bibliometric approaches be integrated with empirical and longitudinal studies. Furthermore, to enhance citation impact and research quality, Indonesian researchers must strengthen international collaborations through cross-country research, joint publications in high-impact journals, and active engagement in global research networks to match the academic influence held by the United States and China. Overall, web-based e-modules have become a key innovation in the transformation of science education toward learning that is more effective, inclusive, and relevant to the demands of the digital era.

Abstract

Natural science learning in Elementary School currently faces various challenges, such as teachers’ difficulties in developing ethnosciences-based learning resources. This study aims to identify, evaluate, and synthesize the utilization of local wisdom as a source for science learning at the elementary level using a systematic literature review (SLR) approach. The analysis was conducted on 21 reputable scientific articles from 2016 to 2025 relevant to the theme of ethnoscience. The findings indicate that various forms of local wisdom, including those based on the environment and nature, food processing and traditional products, arts, culture and local traditions, as well as traditional games and technology, contain elementary science content ranging from mechanics, thermodynamics, matter and its changes, sound and light, ecosystems, the human body, and plant structures. The integration of the material is implemented through laboratory manuals, e-modules, modules, student worksheets (LKPD), illustrated storybooks, digital posters, and educational game media. These tools are significantly proven to enhance students’ cognitive abilities (conceptual understanding, scientific literacy, critical thinking, problem solving, and creative dimensions), affective domains (motivation, interest, and cultural awareness), and psychomotor skills (science process skills). The study concludes that ethnoscience is an approach capable of realizing more interactive and meaningful science learning.
