Abstract

Biology is a subject that contains of many difficult concepts to study. This study aimed to identify Biology topics taught in Senior High School (SHS) which were considered as difficult materials by undergraduate students. The data were gathered by means of a web-based survey from 198 Biology students of 25 universities and 51 Biology education students of nine universities in Indonesia. The biology students graduated from SHSs in 97 regions/municipality, while the biology education students were graduated from 34 regions/municipality. The data were analyzed using two formulas: 1) Biology Difficulty Index (BDI) to determine the difficulty index of Biology subject, and 2) Topic Difficulty Index (TDI) to examine the difficulty index of each Biology topics. The results showed that the highest value of TDI was Genetics. There was no significant difference of BDI between Biology students and Biology education students. The lower of the students’ BDI, the higher the level of their interest in Biology subject. The primary cause of difficulty encountered by the students in studying various topics of Biology was the complicated characteristics of the materials. The findings of this study can be followed up by designing diagnostic tests and instructional designs in biology topics which consider students’ difficulty.

Abstract

STEM learning has now become the main approach applied in various schools in many countries. One of the obstacles faced by various schools in Indonesia in implementing STEM is the lack of understanding and experience of teachers about STEM-based learning. The purpose of this service program was to assist SD Muhammadiyah 1 Paiton Probolinggo in preparing and implementing STEM learning. The solution to the problems offered is socialization and assistance in designing STEM learning. The order of these community service activities was: 1) Matching Perceptions between the Community Service Team and Partner Schools; 2) Presentation of Series 1 Material: Innovative and STEM Learning Models; 3) Presentation of Series 2 Material: Lesson Study and Learning Community; and 4) STEM learning workshops. After carrying out community service activities at SD Muhammadiyah 1 Paiton, there has been a significant and large increase in teacher knowledge regarding STEM learning from before (M = 63.3, SD = 14.9) to after the service program (M = 95.6, SD = 6), t(11) = 6.6, p < .001, d = 1.91. Even though this service program has shown satisfactory results, this program needs to continue so that the learning community of teachers who able to optimize the design so that the implementation of STEM learning can be realized optimally.

Abstract

Research on local wisdom-based biology education is increasingly important in efforts to enrich the national curriculum and preserve Indonesia's cultural heritage. However, systematic studies on trends and varieties of research in this field are still limited. This study aims to analyze trends in local wisdom-based biology education research in Indonesia using data from SINTA 1 to 3 accredited journals during the period 2013-2022. Using a systematic search method, 77 articles related to local wisdom from 22 journals were identified. The analysis shows that although the number of articles has increased from year to year, the percentage of publications focusing on local wisdom is still low. This study also identified a variety of research designs, development models, measured data, and diverse research areas. These findings highlight the need for increased attention to local wisdom-based research in biology education and the development of more standardized instruments to support the sustainability and integration of local wisdom in education. These results are expected to be a reference for researchers and educators in developing a curriculum that is contextual and relevant to local wisdom in Indonesia.
