Abstract

Climate change has emerged as a global crisis with severe consequences for tropical and coastal regions. Pekalongan Regency, Indonesia, exemplifies these challenges, facing recurrent floods and landslides that threaten livelihoods and infrastructure. Risk mapping is urgently needed to guide adaptation strategies, yet many regions face constraints due to limited data availability. This study develops a multi-hazard risk mapping approach that integrates Geographic Information System (GIS) technology with stakeholder participation through Public Participation GIS (PPGIS). Hazard and vulnerability analyses were conducted using disaster records, socio-economic indicators, and spatial datasets, validated through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with government agencies and local stakeholders. The findings were synthesized into a structured four-stage framework encompassing stakeholder education (Kick-off), preliminary spatial analysis, participatory indicator validation, and finalization of risk maps. Results reveal distinct spatial patterns: flood risks dominate northern coastal and riverine villages, while landslide hazards are concentrated in the southern highlands. Stakeholder involvement not only improved data validity but also enhanced local adaptive capacity. The proposed PPGIS framework provides a transferable model for participatory climate resilience planning, particularly in data-scarce regions such as the global south area.

Abstract

Science education can be enriched by integrating local culture and wisdom, particularly through the exploration of mangrove ecosystems. Mangroves not only play an essential ecological role but also embody local knowledge that can be linked to scientific concepts. This study aims to identify and describe the local wisdom of the Nipah Panjang, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan community in utilizing various mangrove species as a source of contextual science learning. A descriptive qualitative design with an ethnopedagogical approach was employed, combining literature review, document analysis, and brief field observations. The findings reveal that six dominant mangrove species, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Excoecaria agallocha, Rhizophora apiculata, and Rhizophora mucronata, are utilized in diverse ways according to their biological traits and bioactive compounds. Their uses include construction materials, firewood, charcoal, traditional medicine (e.g., for eye treatment, anti-inflammatory purposes, and gastric remedies), and support for honeybee cultivation. Such practices highlight the integration of ethnoscientific knowledge with science concepts, including ecosystem adaptation, plant structure, wood properties, and bioactive compounds. By bridging modern science with local wisdom, science education can become more contextual and meaningful, while fostering environmental awareness and a conservation-oriented mindset toward coastal ecosystems.

Abstract

Scientific literacy and creativity are essential present century competencies that students must develop. The implementation of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model integrated with STEM is applied as a solution to foster students' scientific literacy and creativity. This research aims to explore the implementation of the STEM integrated PjBL model in optimizing scientific literacy and student creativity in the environmental pollution learning process.. The research employed a quantitative descriptive approach using a quasi-experimental method. The design used was a non-equivalent control group design, with samples selected through cluster random sampling. The instruments included pretest and postest questions to assess scientific literacy, and observation sheets to measure students’ creativity. The collected data were first tested for homogeneity and normality. Further analysis was conducted using the Independent Samples t-Test and N-Gain test. The t-test results showed a significance value of 0.000, indicating a significant difference in the mean scores between the experimental and control classes. The N-Gain test revealed that the scientific literacy improvement in the experimental class reached 0.67 (moderate category), while the control class reached 0.40 (moderate category). Meanwhile, creativity in the experimental class achieved an N-Gain score of 0.79 (high category), and the control class scored 0.58 (moderate category). Therefore, it can be summarized that the PjBL-STEM model effectively enhances the scientific literacy and creativity of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 33 Semarang.

Abstract

Science learning includes the study of concepts as well as practical activities. Practical science learning can run effectively when supported by adequate laboratory facilities and infrastructure. This study aims to develop a low-cost and environmentally friendly DNA isolation kit as an alternative medium for molecular biology practicum that is more affordable and easier to implement in educational laboratories. The kit development utilizes simple materials and equipment that are easily obtained from the surrounding environment, such as enzyme-based liquid detergent, table salt, natural enzyme extracts (pineapple, ginger, papaya leaves, and papain), and ethanol. The research method employed an experimental approach through stages of kit formula design, optimization of lysis buffer composition, and effectiveness testing on various plant and animal tissue samples, namely strawberry, broccoli, chicken liver, and chicken meat. The success parameters were observed through the visualization of DNA threads resulting from precipitation and the measurement of DNA quantity and purity using a spectrophotometer. The results indicate that all kit formulas were able to extract DNA with varying levels of success, where strawberry and chicken liver samples showed the clearest DNA thread visualization and the best color appearance. These findings demonstrate that a locally based, low-cost, and eco-friendly DNA isolation kit is effective as an alternative to commercial kits and has strong potential to support science learning, particularly in genetics and biotechnology, through more practical and economical laboratory activities.

Abstract

The practical application of science education often encounters various challenges, particularly in conveying abstract scientific concepts in a tangible and meaningful manner for students. Many concepts in junior high school science, such as astronomical phenomena, biological structures, and environmental systems, are inherently abstract and difficult to visualize through conventional instructional approaches. Augmented Reality (AR) offers opportunities to integrate virtual and real environments, enabling abstract scientific concepts to be represented in interactive, visual forms that may support conceptual understanding and student engagement. This study aims to describe and explain patterns of Augmented Reality (AR) utilization across science topics in junior high school education in Indonesia. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following the PRISMA protocol to ensure transparency and rigor in the review process. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across Google Scholar, Scopus, and ERIC databases. Of the 874 articles identified, 17 studies met the predetermined inclusion criteria and were selected for data synthesis. The findings indicate that research on AR-based learning media at the junior high school level in Indonesia remains relatively limited, with much of it focused on specific science topics. The structure and function of living organisms and the solar system were the most covered topics, with 4 articles (31%) and 3 articles (23%), respectively, while other topics each had 1 article (7.7%). In contrast, earth and environmental science topics, including ecology and biodiversity, receive comparatively less attention. This review is limited to open-access studies conducted in Indonesia between 2016 and 2025 and focuses exclusively on junior high school science education. The results of this study provide an overview of current research tendencies and may serve as a reference for future studies seeking to examine AR implementation more comprehensively.
