Abstract

The advancement of digital technology has driven innovation in learning resources, including the use of e-books as supportive media in science education. In the context of ecology learning at the junior secondary level, instructional materials are needed that not only present fundamental concepts but also cultivate scientific literacy and sustainability awareness. This study aimed to develop an ecology e-book grounded in the Education for Sustainable Development framework and to examine its feasibility and effectiveness in enhancing students’ scientific literacy. The research employed a Research and Development approach using the ADDIE model, comprising need analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The e-book was validated by two material experts, two media experts, and twenty science teachers. Validation results showed a very high level of feasibility, with material experts awarding an average score of 96.3 percent and media experts 95.3 percent, supported by a CVI of 0.95 and a CVR of 0.93, indicating strong content validity. During implementation, the e-book’s effectiveness was tested using a quasi-experimental design with 35 students in the experimental class and 27 in the control class. The analysis revealed a moderate improvement in students’ scientific literacy, with an N-gain of 0.43, while the control class achieved an N-gain of 0.20. Gains were evident in knowledge and competency, particularly in understanding scientific phenomena and epistemic reasoning. The distribution of scores in the experimental class also became more homogeneous, suggesting more even conceptual understanding. Statistical tests confirmed significant differences between the two groups, strengthening the evidence of the e-book’s impact. Students’ responses averaged 81 percent in the very good category, covering content, language, visuals, and usefulness. These findings indicate that the ESD-based ecology e-book is feasible and effective for improving scientific literacy among junior secondary students. Keywords: e-book, ecology, education for sustainable development, scientific literacy.

Abstract

Nowadays, direct media use in learning energy is rarely found. Therefore, the authors intended to design a mini micro-hydro power plant (MHPP) in order to give direct experiences to students. This study generally aims to develop a mini MHPP consisting of equipment design, component selection, and the MHPP assembly. A test on discharge, heights, and produced power is then conducted. The data acquired are then analyzed in terms of either Pteotirik or Preal power using a predetermined equation. An analysis to the factors influencing the P values is then carried out. The power input of resulted from the water discharge management is 35.64 mW, while that of the power output is 9,61 mW. The efficiency of the MHPP set is by 26.96% which is considered quite low due to such factors as turbine blades, penstock pipes, generators, and the shift from water potential energy to other types of energies which is inevitable. It is expected that the developed mini MHPP is applicable as practicum learning media giving a lot of such learning experiences to students as to identify how hydroelectric power plant is, how the water energy shifts into electric energy, how high the electricity produced is, and to analyze factors influencing how high and low the electricity produced by a power plant.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the large number of elementary school classrooms that do not offer quality science experiences to students so that it has an impact on students' low understanding of the science concept. The RADEC (Read-Answer-Discuss-Explain And Create) learning model seems suitable for increasing students' understanding of science concepts. This learning model has scientific stages that encourage the cons-truction of students' knowledge. This study aims to analyze the increased understanding of the concept of electrical phenomena through the application of the RADEC learning model. The study involved twenty-eight grade 5 students in the 2019-2020 academic year. Quasi-experimental method with one-group pretest-postest design was used in this study. To find out the understanding of students' concepts about electrical phenomena, tests were carried out before and after the implementation. This study uses descriptive analysis to analyze data collected before and after implementation. From the results of the analysis, it is known that students' understanding of the concept of electrical phenomena after the implementation of the RADEC learning model is higher than before. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the RADEC learning model can improve students' conceptual understanding of electrical phenomena.

Abstract

Climate change has become a serious threat to all humans, with impacts already being felt throughout the planet. One effort in climate change education is to improve students' climate literacy and climate change awareness. This study aimed to measure climate literacy and climate change awareness among vocational high school students and analyze the relationship between aspects of these two variables. A questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale was used, and the data were processed using descriptive statistics and Pearson ’scorrelation analysis. The results from 295 respondents showed that the average climate literacy was in the high category (3.50), while climate change awareness was in the medium category (3.40). However, both showed significant gaps in each aspect. The results of the correlation analysis showed a significant relationship between attitudes and behavior, both in climate literacy (r = 0.323) and climate change awareness (r = 0.142). Climate change education not only conveys information in the form of knowledge but also includes efforts to strengthen attitudes that can encourage sustainable climate-friendly behavior. The results of this study will serve as the basis for developing climate change teaching materials in vocational high schools to improve students' climate literacy and climate change awareness.

Abstract

Observations and literature reviews indicate that vocational school students' critical thinking skills remain low, even though these skills are important for vocational graduates. One reason is the limited availability of interactive teaching materials for the IPAS Project subject. This study aims to develop a STEM-ESD-based e-module for the IPAS Project on Soil Pollution to improve the critical thinking skills of Year 10 vocational school students. The study uses the Research and Development (RD) method with the ADDIE model. The e-module was developed using Heyzine Flipbook. The validation results showed that the e-module was highly valid, with a score of 90% from subject matter experts, 92% from media experts, and 93% from language experts, as well as a very practical response from teachers (93%). The implementation of the e-module resulted in increased critical thinking skills, with an N-Gain score of 0.67 and very positive student responses. This e-module is suitable for use as an innovative teaching material that supports student-centred learning and sustainable education.

Abstract

Aims: This study aims to improve waste bank activities in Medan and make them more efficient Methodology and Results: The study involved the collection of secondary and primary data. The secondary data collected involved a general description of the study area, number, status, and location of the waste bank. Primary data included interviews and field research on selected waste banks. Importantly, survey and data collection were conducted from December 2017 to April 2018. A semi-structured interview survey approach was conducted to collect the data. Using the Material Flow Analysis (MFA) methodology, the findings of the study showed that of the total amount of the input material, 87.4 % is a recyclable waste and 12.6 % water. Also, the waste bank activities generate 87.2% recyclable items, 12.6% wastewater, and 0.2% residues. Conclusion, significance, and impact study: The findings are essential in understanding the use of resources to provide information for improving waste bank activities and waste management. Apart from the community, the government also plays a significant role in supporting the future of waste banks. This study found that waste bank activities are still conventional, with no technology adoption. In the future, the waste bank should be more efficient and manage large amounts of wastes, because the potential for recyclable products is still abundant.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate junior high school students’ sustainability literacy in science learning at environmentally based schools and non-environmentally based schools. This research is quantitative and uses a survey method. The participants are 902 students from three non-environmentally oriented school-based junior high schools and three environmentally oriented school-based junior high schools in West Java. Research data were gathered via a survey questionnaire comprising 25 closed-ended statements and 2 open-ended questions, both of which were valid and reliable. Data analysis of closed statements using the RASCH model by categorizing sustainability literacy using a logit value person (LVP) design. The data analysis of open-ended questions uses Voyant Tools, a website that can digitally read and analyze text. The results showed that students' sustainability literacy in both types of schools was moderate, with averages of 77.2 and 76.9. The highest scoring aspect is awareness of environmentally friendly practices. In contrast, the lowest aspect is waste management habits, and the aspect that students in environmentally school-based settings have, with lower levels than in non-environmentally school-based settings, is environmental action and advocacy for sustainable practices. This research highlighted that junior high school students’ sustainability literacy profiles are still in the moderate category across both school categories and need improvement.
