<![CDATA[Students’ science literacy levels, as measured by PISA scores, are classified as low. Students’ lack of skills, the low application of scientific knowledge in daily life, and the slow decision-making process are caused by low science literacy and a lack of environmental awareness. One approach to improving science literacy and environmental awareness is the use of a values-based problem-based learning model, as illustrated in the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar, to be implemented. This study aims to: 1) Determine the significant effect of using a values-based problem-based learning model, as illustrated in the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar, on improving the science literacy of Year 10 students at MA AL-Amiriyyah. 2) To determine the significant effect of using a problem-based learning model supported by values from the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar on improving the environmental awareness of Year 10 students at MA AL-Amiriyyah. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design, specifically a non-equivalent control group design. The study population comprised Year 10 students at MA AL-Amiriyyah, Banyuwangi, with a purposive sampling technique used to select Class X F as the experimental group and Class X H as the control group. Data collection techniques included questionnaires, tests, and documentation. Data analysis employed the Z-test. The results indicate that there is a significant effect of using a values-based problem-based learning model, informed by the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar, on improving science literacy and environmental awareness among Year 10 students at MA AL-Amiriyyah. Based on the results of the Mann-Whitney U test, Sig (2-tailed) = 0.000 < 0.05, with a strong category for science literacy, and based on the results of the Z-test, Sig (2-tailed) = 0.001 < 0.05, with a weak category for environmental awareness. Based on the data analysis, it can be concluded that science literacy skills and environmental awareness attitudes improved through the problem-based learning model supported by the values in the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar.]]>
