Abstract

The environment is defined as a place where living things carry out their life activities. Clean and sustainable environment can sustain continuous life(sustainability).Therefore, intelligence is needed to support it, one of the intelligence that is the basis for this ecological intelligence (ecoliteracy). Every behavior or action of a person based on ecological intelligence,it does not only have an impact on himself and others, but also on other living things and the nature around where a person lives or in other terms "empathy for all forms of life". Current conditions in elementary schools have not shown students who have ecological intelligence. The development of social skills or character of students in elementary schools still focuses on human interaction. Through ecopedagogy, teachers need to link interactions between humans and the environment or nature. The purpose of writing this article is to describe some aspects of the theory of ecological intelligence development of students in elementary schools. This study uses a literature study (literature review) which produces a description of several theories in developing ecological intelligence of students in elementary schools

Abstract

Ecoliteracy or Ecological Intelligence is intelligence that is built by understanding, awareness and life skills in harmony with the preservation of nature. This study began with an objective observation in the Binekas Elementary School in Bandung regarding the behavior of students related to environmental awareness. The observation of the behavior of class III students totaling 22 people showed that they were not accustomed to separating organic and inorganic waste, as well as damaging and picking vines in the school. This study aims to increase students' ecoliteracy through contextual teaching learning (CTL) based on outdoor study in elementary social studies learning. The teaching and learning process uses CTL with the material 'Protecting the Environment for the Preservation of Plants and Animals ". The purpose of CTL learning based on outdoor study is to improve environmental problems and increase student ecoliteracy. The method used in this research is Classroom Action Research with a design developed by Kemmis and Mc Taggart for 2 cycles. The results showed that there was an increase in students' ecoliteracy in terms of knowledge, skills and attitudes. In the aspect of knowledge, students show a good understanding of the importance of maintaining hygiene in school. In the aspect of attitude, students show awareness to protect their environment. It was also practiced among other things accustomed to separating organic and inorganic waste, as well as maintaining plants around the school
