Abstract

Science literacy is very much needed in the future because it encourages students to solve problems and investigate scientifically. However, students' science literacy is currently still low, resulting in environmental ignorance. Students' low science literacy is attempted to be improved by conducting ethnoscience-based science learning by integrating environmental problems, science materials, and scientifically tested community knowledge. This study aims to determine the differences in science literacy abilities in ethnoscience-based science learning. This type of research is Pre Experimental research with a One Group Pretest-Posttest design. The research was conducted in the even semester of the 2023/2024 academic year at SMP Al Hikam Burneh. The research population was all students of class VII. The sample used was class VII-B as many as 22 students who were taken using the Purposive Sampling technique based on teacher recommendations regarding student abilities. The research instrument used was a science literacy test consisting of 6 essay questions. The data collection method used a test. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test. The results of the study obtained (1) the average value of the pretest of students' scientific literacy skills was 53.00 and the posttest was 79.98; and (2) the results of the paired sample t-test were --12,978  2,079  11,878 which showed that students' scientific literacy skills experienced differences after ethnoscience-based science learning. It can be concluded that there are differences in students' scientific literacy skills in ethnoscience-based science learning.

Abstract

Background: Education on disaster mitigation remains critically underemphasized, with existing pedagogical approaches often falling short in adequately preparing children for the realities of natural disasters. This gap underscores the urgent need for innovative educational tools that can effectively enhance disaster literacy among younger populations.Aim: This study aims to develop and assess an Earthquake E-Book designed to elevate the disaster literacy levels among children, focusing on its validity, practicality, and effectiveness as educational media.Method: Employing a Research and Development (RnD) framework, the study navigated through stages of problem identification, design formulation, and implementation, excluding the evaluation phase to concentrate on the developmental process. The implementation employed a One-Group Pretest-Posttest design, involving pretesting, intervention (treatment), and posttesting phases. The e-book's validity was appraised by three expert validators, while its practicality was gauged through student questionnaires, and its effectiveness was measured using the N-Gain test on student learning outcomes.Results: The Earthquake E-Book garnered an average validation score of 85.4 percent, positioning it within the valid category. Practicality assessments reflected an 85.4 percent efficiency rating from student feedback. Furthermore, the effectiveness, as indicated by an N-Gain score of 0.74, was classified within the high category, signifying substantial improvements in children's disaster literacy post-intervention.Conclusions: The findings affirm that the Earthquake E-Book stands as a valid, practical, and effective educational tool in bolstering disaster literacy among children. By integrating this digital resource into disaster mitigation education, it is anticipated to significantly contribute to enhancing children's understanding and preparedness for earthquake disasters.
