Abstract

This study aims to explore the extent to which outdoor learning grounded in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) enhances students' conceptual grasp of biodiversity, evolution, and conservation. Thirty-seven undergraduate biology education students participated in this study, which employed a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design in the Animal Biosystematics course. Data were collected using a standardized questionnaire and written cognition tests. The results showed a statistically significant improvement in students' posttest scores (M = 90.24, SD = 4.98) compared to their pretest scores (M = 81.29, SD = 3.65), with a significant effect t (36) = - 25.049, p < .001, Cohen's d = 2.17). The study of questionnaire responses revealed that over 88% of students had positive perceptions about the utilization of outdoor learning in four key areas: participation (who), learning content (what), learning environment (where), and instructional approach (how). Additionally, more than 67% of students stated they would be open to participating in future outdoor learning activities and planning that are based on ESD. Additionally, students stated that the educational experience raised their critical understanding of conservation and sustainability issues. These results imply that ESD-focused outdoor learning is an effective teaching method to promote ecological awareness and active student participation in biology classes with a sustainability focus.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an electronic module based on socio-scientific issues on biotechnology material using the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. This module is designed to improve high school students' argumentation skills and perceptions of biotechnology. The subjects of the study consisted of 76 grade XI students in West Bandung Regency. The three-tier test instrument was used to identify student misconceptions, with the results showing the highest percentage of misconceptions in the concepts of STEM cells (22%), recombinant bacteria (21%), and cloning (19%). Needs analysis was carried out through data triangulation, including diagnostic tests, teacher interviews, and student questionnaires. The electronic module developed includes material features, practicums, socio-scientific issues, perception space, and evaluation. Validation by material experts, technology, teachers, and students produced an average score of 3.31 (valid criteria) with a feasibility percentage of 83%. Field trials on 20 students showed an average effectiveness score of 3.19 (80%), included in the very valid category. The results of the study indicate that this module is effective in improving student understanding, interesting to use, and feasible to be applied in distance learning. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of developing innovative learning media to overcome misconceptions and encourage scientific literacy based on contemporary issues.
