Abstract

The integration of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) into science instruction remains limited in secondary schools due to teachers’ insufficient understanding and practical skills. To address this, a professional development program was conducted to enhance the capacity of junior and senior high school science teachers to implement ESD through project-based learning (PjBL). The program consisted of three phases: conceptual enrichment, on-the-job training, and microteaching. A total of 12 science teachers completed the program. During the microteaching phase, one teacher served as a model by delivering an ESD-integrated lesson to 24 students, focusing on a solar energy project. Data were collected through facilitator observations, teacher reflections, and post-program questionnaires completed by both teachers and students. The findings indicate improved teacher understanding of ESD principles, greater ability to design PjBL activities linked to sustainability goals, and increased instructional confidence. Student feedback revealed high levels of engagement, satisfaction, and awareness of sustainability issues. These outcomes suggest that structured and practice-based professional development can effectively support science teachers in integrating ESD into classroom practice. Expanding similar programs may foster transformative science education and help prepare students to take informed action on sustainability challenges.

Abstract

Students' creative thinking skills remain relatively low due to teacher-centered instruction and the limited use of interactive, innovative teaching materials in science learning. This study aims to analyze improvements in students' creative thinking skills through the use of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)-based flipbook on bioplastics. The study used a quantitative, pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest. The research sample consisted of 30 ninth-grade students from a junior high school in Garut Regency, selected purposively. The instrument used was an essay test measuring creative thinking skills across four indicators: fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, the Wilcoxon test, and the N-Gain test. The results showed an increase in students' creative thinking skills, indicated by an average pretest score of 39.22, which increased to 77.42 in the posttest. The Wilcoxon test showed a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a difference between the pre- and post-treatment groups. The N-Gain values ​​for all indicators were in the moderate category, with the highest increase in the flexibility indicator (0.69) and the lowest in elaboration (0.58). These N-Gain results indicate that STEM-based flipbooks on bioplastics can help students develop ideas, explore various solutions, and link concepts to contextual problems. This research has the potential to improve junior high school students' creative thinking skills.Keywords: bioplastics, creative thinking, flipbook, STEM

Abstract

Local potential refers to the various resources available within a particular region that can be utilized as learning resources in science education to strengthen the connection between scientific concepts and students’ surrounding environment. This community service activity was conducted through a workshop on the integration of local potential and science process skills for science teachers in Garut Regency. The activity involved 26 science teachers who participated in material presentations, discussions, and an evaluation using a participant response questionnaire. The questionnaire results indicated highly positive responses, with 92.30% of participants strongly agreeing that the resource person demonstrated mastery of the material, 100% strongly agreeing with the opportunity provided for discussion, 88.46% strongly agreeing with the clarity of the material delivery, and 84.61%–100% strongly agreeing with the usefulness of the activity, the relevance of the material, and its applicability to science learning. The findings indicate that participants perceived the workshop as beneficial in strengthening their understanding of the integration of local potential and science process skills. In addition, participants expressed positive responses regarding the relevance of the materials to their instructional needs and their potential application in contextual and meaningful science learning in schools. The results of this activity indicate that the field-needs-based workshop was very well received by the participants and has the potential to support the professional development of science teachers by strengthening their knowledge, motivation, and reflection on environment-based teaching practices.

Abstract

Effectiveness of STEAM-based PJBL Learning Model (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) to Improve Students' Critical Thinking Skills. One of the goals of national education in the 21st century was to make students who have critical thinking skills. However, there are still many facts that students' critical thinking skills in Indonesia are still low. Therefore, renewal in learning was needed to improve these critical thinking skills. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the PjBL-STEAM learning model in improving students' critical thinking skills and the improvement of critical thinking skills in each indicator. This research used quantitative method with pre-experimental design with one group pretest-posttest type. The subjects in this study were VIII grade students in one of the junior high schools in Garut Regency who had not learned the material of effort and energy and had never applied the PjBL-STEAM learning model. The instrument used was a description question with a total of 13 questions to measure critical thinking skills based on the indicators put forward by Ennis with a validity result of 0.51 and reliability of 0.78. The data collection techniques used were interviews, tests, namely pretest and posttest. The results of data analysis showed an increase in the average score from pretest to posttest by 48.5. The N-Gain test showed a value of 0.71 with a high category, which means that PjBL-STEAM learning is able to improve students' critical thinking skills, with the results of the indicator providing a simple explanation experiencing the highest increase with an N-Gain value of 0.71, and the conclusion indicator experiencing the lowest increase with an N-Gain value of 0.67. These findings support the used of the PjBL-STEAM model as an innovative approach to the creation of learning experiences that are relevant to everyday life. .
