Abstract

Global warming poses serious threats to marine and coastal environments, especially in island and shoreline communities like Kijang Kota in the Riau Islands, Indonesia. Despite the urgency of this issue, research on how students in such vulnerable areas understand and respond to global warming remains limited. This study aims to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and environmental behaviors of junior high school students in Kijang Kota regarding global warming and its effects on the marine and coastal environment. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected through tests and questionnaires from a sample of 304 students, selected through stratified random sampling. The findings reveal that students’ knowledge was generally low, with an average score placing them in the "poor" category. However, their attitudes toward environmental issues were "very good," reflecting high awareness and concern. In terms of environmental behavior, most students were in the "good" category, showing moderate engagement in eco-friendly actions. The results highlight a gap between students’ strong environmental concern and their limited understanding and actions, pointing to the need for more practical, context-based environmental education in coastal schools. This research offers insights that can help improve climate education and promote more sustainable behavior in island and coastal communities.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of kits renewable energy projects by implementing a project-based learning model on students' lower order thinking skills (LOTS) and higher order thinking skills (HOTS). The research method used was quasi-experimental with a nonequivalent posttest only control group design. The population in this study was 198 students. Samples were taken randomly from a population that had passed the normality test and homogeneity test. This research uses a cognitive learning outcomes test instrument in the form of multiple choices. The research results show that there is no significant difference in cognitive learning outcomes in the LOTS category between students in classes that apply project-based learning on renewable energy material and classes that apply conventional learning on renewable energy material, sig. 0.127 0.05, using the Mann Whitney test. Meanwhile, the results of hypothesis testing for cognitive learning outcomes in the HOTS category using the independent sample t-test obtained a sig (2-tailed) value of 0.000 0.05, which means there is a significant difference in students' cognitive learning outcomes. between classes that apply project-based learning to renewable energy material and classes that apply conventional learning to renewable energy material. These results indicate that project-based learning can produce student learning in the HOTS category, but has no effect on increasing students' cognitive abilities

Abstract

Education is a comprehensive process that encompasses guidance, development, regulation, supervision, and the transmission of values from educators to learners. Learning media refer to any tools or resources employed to convey instructional messages in ways that stimulate students’ thinking, emotions, attention, and motivation, thereby facilitating a structured, goal-directed, and well-managed learning experience. This study aims to develop a simple teaching aid on the human circulatory system for eleventh-grade students using readily available materials, while ensuring its validity as an instructional medium. The research adopted three of the five stages of the ADDIE development model—Analysis, Design, and Development. The study did not proceed to the implementation phase; instead, it focused on the development stage, particularly validity testing. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and questionnaire distribution. The analysis combined quantitative methods, involving percentage score calculations, with qualitative evaluation derived from validators’ feedback and recommendations. The findings indicate that students require visually engaging instructional media that are practical to use and aligned with the expectations of the Merdeka Curriculum. In conclusion, the design phase produced a prototype teaching aid that is considered appropriate for use in biology instruction, demonstrating a very high level of validity and strong potential to enhance the learning process.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to improve teachers’ competence in developing Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)-based assessment items integrated with maritime contexts at SMPN 11 Tanjungpinang. The program employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, emphasizing collaborative problem identification, action, and reflection to ensure alignment with teachers’ real instructional needs. The participants consisted of 24 teachers from various subject areas at a maritime-based junior high school in the Riau Islands. The program was implemented through three structured stages: (1) a needs analysis conducted through interviews and focused group discussions to identify challenges in HOTS-based assessment, (2) a training phase involving conceptual reinforcement of HOTS and 21st-century skills, guided practice in constructing C4–C6 assessment items using maritime-based stimuli, and collaborative review, and (3) a post-implementation stage focusing on evaluation and reflection. Program outcomes were evaluated using pre- and post-tests, a rubric-based HOTS item development task, and a participant satisfaction questionnaire. The results indicated a significant improvement in teachers’ conceptual understanding, with a high N-Gain score (0.76) in the introductory module and moderate gains in subsequent technical modules. Teachers successfully produced high-quality HOTS assessment items that demonstrated strong alignment between learning objectives, cognitive levels, and maritime contextual relevance. Participant responses showed very high satisfaction (93.24%), indicating that the program was relevant, practical, and beneficial for professional development. In conclusion, the PAR-based structured training had a positive impact on strengthening teachers’ HOTS assessment competence in a maritime-based school context. The program also contributed to increased readiness for sustainable implementation of contextualized HOTS-oriented assessment practices, highlighting the importance of continued mentoring and follow-up support.

Abstract

Critical thinking has become a fundamental competency in twenty-first-century education and must be carefully cultivated and assessed within biology instruction, particularly in topics related to the human reproductive system. Accordingly, the availability of valid and reliable assessment instruments is essential to ensure accurate measurement of students’ critical thinking skills. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the feasibility of an instrument designed to measure critical thinking in the context of human reproductive system content, with emphasis on empirical validity and reliability. A quantitative approach with a descriptive research design was employed in this study, involving 24 students from class XII.3 at SMA Negeri 6 Tanjungpinang. Data were collected using a test instrument consisting of 12 essay items constructed based on Ennis’s critical thinking indicators. Empirical validity was examined using the product–moment correlation technique, while reliability was determined through Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings revealed that 10 of the 12 items met the criteria for empirical validity, whereas 2 items were deemed invalid. The reliability analysis produced a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.799, indicating a high level of internal consistency. These results suggest that the developed instrument is appropriate and dependable for assessing senior high school students’ critical thinking skills on the topic of the human reproductive system.
