Abstract

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)-based learning is designed to enhance 21st-century competencies in students through interdisciplinary integration and project-based activities. This study examines the implementation of fermentation experiments as a STEM learning medium in the Biology Education (Tadris Biologi) course at Universitas Muhammadiyah Aceh. Fermentation experiments (such as making tempeh or yogurt) involve microbial biology concepts (roles of yeast/bacteria) and chemical reactions (conversion of sugars into ethanol or acids), thus enabling the integration of science and mathematics in real-world contexts. The research employed a quasi-experimental design involving undergraduate students of Biology Education. Data were collected through pre- and post-learning concept tests, laboratory activity observations, and questionnaires measuring 21st-century skills (4Cs). The results showed a significant improvement in students’ conceptual understanding of fermentation and in their critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills. Students actively posed critical questions regarding biochemical changes during fermentation and demonstrated enhanced teamwork and creativity in designing experiments. Overall, the fermentation experiments effectively bridged microbial biology and chemical reaction concepts while strengthening 21st-century skills, in line with previous research findings. This study implies that STEM integration through fermentation experiments can improve science literacy among Biology Education students and is recommended for higher education curricula.

Abstract

Ecoenzyme is an organic fermentation solution obtained from household organic waste, which has great potential in supporting sustainable environmental management. This study aims to review the benefits and applications of ecoenzymes based on current literature, and evaluate their relevance to global environmental challenges. The results of the review indicate that ecoenzymes play an effective role in waste treatment, pollution reduction, and improving soil and water quality. In addition, ecoenzymes also contribute to climate change mitigation by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Despite its significant benefits, the adoption of ecoenzymes on a large scale faces challenges, such as the lack of standardization of production processes and the need for more in-depth scientific validation. Therefore, further research is needed to optimize the use of ecoenzymes and support their application in various sectors. This study is expected to be a reference for the development of environmentally friendly technologies that are in line with the principles of sustainable development. Key words: ecoenzyme, environmental management, sustainable development, climate change mitigation, organic waste

Abstract

Functional beverages based on fermentation are increasingly in demand as public awareness of the importance of preventive health increases. Kombucha coffee, an innovation from coffee fermentation using bacterial and yeast cultures (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast or SCOBY), offers a combination of the benefits of coffee and traditional kombucha. This article examines the potential of kombucha coffee as a functional beverage that contributes to improving the immune system and maintaining the balance of gut microbiota. The fermentation process produces probiotics, organic acids, and other bioactive compounds that play an important role in strengthening the body's defenses and modulating the immune response through the gut-immune axis. In addition, the natural antioxidant content of fermented coffee can reduce oxidative stress and support digestive tract health. Literature studies show that consuming kombucha coffee has the potential to increase the population of beneficial bacteria in the intestine, inhibit pathogens, and improve the integrity of the intestinal barrier. These findings indicate that kombucha coffee has great prospects as an alternative functional beverage that supports holistic health. Further studies are needed to understand the specific biological mechanisms and standardization of production to ensure the safety and consistency of its benefits.Keywords: kombucha coffee, immune system, gut microbiota, fermentation, antioxidants
