Abstract

Science process skills are one of the 21st-century skills that are important to optimize to train students to be skilled in solving problems. However, facts in the field show that science process skills are still relatively low because teachers do not yet understand how to develop science process skills, and there is a lack of teaching materials based on a scientific approach to developing science process skills. This research aims to develop an integrated Project-based Learning (PjBL) module for black soybean ethnoscience that is valid, practical, and effective for improving students' science process skills. The model for product development is ADDIE. The product's effectiveness was tested using a quasi-experiment with research subjects consisting of 91 students (46 experimental and 45 control group students). The results of the module developed meet valid and practical criteria. The results of product effectiveness tested using quasi-experiments show that the integrated PjBL module of black soybean ethnoscience effectively improves science process skills. They are increasing students' science process skills due to using contextual phenomena in learning.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the suboptimal level of environmental care among fifth-grade students in Islamic elementary schools (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah) across Bayat District. The study was grounded in the Value–Belief–Norm (VBN) Theory, which explains that individuals' values and beliefs influence their pro-environmental behavior. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between religiosity and environmental care attitudes among fifth-grade students in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah throughout Bayat District. A quantitative approach with a correlational research design was employed. The population consisted of 108 students, from which a sample of 86 students was selected using the Slovin formula and proportional random sampling. Empirical validity testing indicated that 21 of the 22 religiosity questionnaire items and 26 of the 30 environmental care attitude questionnaire items were valid. Reliability testing yielded Cronbach's alpha coefficients of 0.807 for the religiosity scale and 0.847 for the environmental care attitude scale, indicating good internal consistency. The correlation analysis (r = .767, p < .001) revealed a strong, positive, and statistically significant relationship between religiosity and environmental care attitudes. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R² = .588) indicated that approximately 58.8% of the variance in students' environmental care attitudes was associated with religiosity, while the remaining 41.2% was explained by other factors. These findings highlight the importance of integrating environmental care into Islamic education and daily religious practices, enabling students not only to strengthen their religious commitment but also to develop greater responsibility toward environmental sustainability.

Abstract

Creative thinking and environmental literacy are critical competencies for prospective biology teachers in addressing the demands of 21st-century education and the growing challenges of environmental sustainability. However, opportunities to develop these competencies through authentic learning experiences remain limited, particularly because learning and laboratory activities are still predominantly oriented toward a cookbook approach. This study investigated improvements in students’ creative thinking skills and environmental literacy through the implementation of Scaffolded Project-Based Learning (PjBL) integrated with STEM through sustainable fermentation product design. A mixed-methods approach was employed. Quantitative data were collected through pretests and posttests involving 19 students and analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired-samples t-tests, N-Gain, and effect size. Qualitative data were obtained through worksheet analysis, interviews, observations, and documentation of project activities. The results showed that creative thinking skills increased from a mean score of 2.391 to 3.023, with an N-Gain of 0.393 (moderate category), indicating a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (t = -11.125, p 0.001) and a very large effect size (Cohen’s d = -2.552). Environmental literacy increased from 2.540 to 2.961, with an N-Gain of 0.288 (low category). At the same time, the difference between pretest and posttest scores was statistically significant (t = −5.333, p 0.001), with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.224). Qualitative findings further indicated that students engaged in idea generation and decision-making, evidence-based problem solving, the use of locally available materials, and consideration of sustainability and waste reduction. The scaffolding progressively supported students in moving from reliance on instructional guidance toward greater autonomy in problem solving. Overall, STEM-integrated Scaffolded PjBL through sustainable fermentation product design shows promise as an authentic learning approach for fostering creative thinking and supporting environmental literacy among prospective biology teachers.

Abstract

This study examined changes in pre-service biology teachers’ conceptual understanding and science process skills following practicum activities assisted by realia media. A mixed-method explanatory design was employed, with a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design for the quantitative component and qualitative data used to contextualize the quantitative findings. The participants were second-semester biology education students enrolled in a plant development structure course involving practicum activities assisted by realia media. Data were collected using a conceptual understanding test and a science process skills observation sheet. Quantitative data were analyzed using a paired-samples t-test for normally distributed paired data and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for non-normally distributed paired data, while qualitative data were used to support the interpretation of the quantitative findings. The results showed significant improvements in students’ conceptual understanding following the practicum activities, with the largest increases observed in explaining (40.00 points), drawing inferences (38.33 points), and comparing (35.00 points). Science process skills also improved, particularly in identifying variables (1.43 points), communicating (1.30 points), and predicting (1.20 points). Overall, significant differences were found between the pretest and posttest scores for conceptual understanding and science process skills (p < .05). These findings indicate that practicum activities assisted by realia media are associated with improvements in conceptual understanding and science process skills and may provide a more contextual and interactive learning experience for pre-service biology teachers.
