Abstract

Using local potentials as a source of teaching materials in the biology learning process affects building contextual learning and stimulating learners to learn more about the surrounding environment. Mangrove Mangunharjo ecosystem can be used as a learning resource to improve students' knowledge of the environment. The purpose of this study is to develop a booklet on the local potential of the mangrove Mangunharjo ecosystem Semarang as an effort to improve environmental literacy. Research methods using R&D with the ADDIE model. The booklet was implemented using a quasi-experiment. The results showed that: 1) The mangrove Mangunharjo ecosystem has the potential to serve as a learning resource. 2) The characteristics of the booklet contain specific information about ecosystem materials that utilize the local potential of mangrove Mangunharjo, which is used as a learning resource. 3) The validity of the booklet obtained a result score from material experts of 92.1% with a very valid category and a result score from media experts of 97.2% with a very valid category. 4) The effectiveness of the booklet on students' environmental literacy obtains the result of N-gain analysis is known that the value of N-gain in the experimental class is much higher with the value of N-gain of 0.536 with moderate criteria, while the value of N-gain in the control class of 0.352 with moderate criteria. Based on developing the ecosystem booklet, mangrove Mangunharjo was declared feasible based on validity, readability, practicality, and effectiveness as a learning resource.

Abstract

The Gunung Kuda mining area in the Cipanas Village area, Dukupuntang District, Kuningan Regency has the potential for natural resources as a type of C excavation mine with a limestone soil texture where the results are partly used as raw materials for cement, natural stone and ceramics. The aim of this research is to examine the impact of Gunung Kuda mining activities on environmental quality as a source of SDGs-based science learning. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques were carried out using open interviews, field observations and literature reviews. The results obtained show that Mount Kuda mining activities have positive and negative impacts. The positive impact felt by the surrounding community is as a center of livelihood to stabilize the economy. However, there are also negative impacts in the form of decreasing the quality of the surrounding environment, such as the river in the Gunung Kuda mining area which is classified as moderately polluted, namely with a value of Plj 10.39; air pollution in the form of dust resulting from the breakdown of rocks; as well as reduced vegetation in mining areas. Efforts made by the management and surrounding communities to balance the environment in the mining area are by replanting trees that have been reduced due to the mining process with trees that are considered to have benefits such as mango trees, durian trees and sengon trees. The results of the analysis of the impact of Mount Kuda mining on environmental quality are suitable as a study in SDGs-based contextual science learning resources.
