This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with participants consisting of Physics Education students who have taken part in PMM. Data were collected through questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The questionnaire, consisting of 18 items, showed that the majority of respondents gave positive assessments regarding their self-confidence improvement after participating in PMM, with an overall average score of 89.73%, indicating a very effective category. The interview analysis supports these findings, informants reported an increase in public speaking confidence, adaptability in new environments, and expansion of social networks. Challenges encountered included cross-cultural communication barriers and differences in learning systems, which were managed through effective adaptation strategies.

Abstract

Eco-pedagogy is an educational approach that places emphasis on the relationship between humans and the natural world, and encourages the undertaking of practical actions for the benefit of environmental sustainability. The objective of this study is to enhance students' environmental literacy and creative thinking abilities through the Earth and Space Science (ESS) integrated eco-pedagogy (EcoP) modules. This research is development research (R & D) using 4-D model by Thiagarajan. The research subjects were 22 prospective physics teacher students. Data on environmental literacy and creative thinking skills were collected through pre-test and post-test by using the environmental literacy test and creative thinking skills questionnaire. The results demonstrated that the implementation of the validated ESS-EcoP module integrated with eco-pedagogy can markedly enhance 65.05% students' environmental literacy and 55.49% students’ creative thinking skills. This research is anticipated to contribute to the advancement of innovative learning models that can augment students' awareness and concern for the environment.
