Abstract

Indonesian students’ low scientific literacy, as reported in PISA 2022, underscores the need for contextual and meaningful learning innovations. The Tatanén di Balé Atikan (TdBA) program in Purwakarta Regency is an environment- and local wisdom-based educational initiative with potential to foster scientific literacy among elementary school students. This study explored students’ scientific literacy through the TdBA program using the PISA 2022 framework, namely explaining phenomena scientifically, evaluating and designing scientific investigations, and interpreting data and scientific evidence. A descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Participants were the TdBA coordinator teacher and students actively involved in the program. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, documentation, and questionnaires, then analyzed through data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing, and triangulation. Four themes emerged: (1) scientific literacy developed through direct observation-based practices that enabled contextual observation, investigation, and problem-solving; (2) students’ scientific literacy was categorized as good, with a mean score of 61.7%, the highest being in designing scientific investigations; (3) scientific concepts were internalized in daily life through environmental management and plant cultivation; and (4) the program fostered a scientific culture ecosystem through sustainable academic and ecological routines. These findings indicate that the TdBA program contributes positively to students’ scientific literacy by providing authentic learning experiences that holistically integrate environmental contexts, local wisdom, and scientific processes
