Abstract

Formal chemistry learning frequently encounters obstacles in the form of student misconceptions and a disconnect between abstract concepts and everyday life, contributing to Indonesia's low scientific literacy scores in PISA 2022. This study examines the reconstruction of ethnochemistry as an integrative learning approach for atomic concepts and analyses its contribution to facilitating scientific literacy while revitalising students' cultural and civic literacy. Employing a descriptive qualitative narrative literature review, data were gathered from credible scientific articles published between 2020 and 2025. The findings indicate that ethnochemistry effectively reconstructs abstract atomic structure concepts into concrete understanding by integrating local wisdom contexts such as batik-making and traditional fermentation. This approach enhances conceptual understanding, minimises misconceptions, and sharpens science process skills. Furthermore, ethnochemistry-based atomic learning strengthens cultural and civic literacy through the internalisation of character values including mutual cooperation, patriotism, and multicultural awareness and supports the formation of the Pancasila Student Profile. Optimising this approach requires innovation in digital media such as e-flipbooks and Augmented Reality, alongside reinforced implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. These findings underscore the importance of uniting cognitive and affective dimensions within a cultural framework to nurture a generation that is scientifically literate and strong in national character.

Abstract

Understanding of basic science concepts is often hindered by students' misconceptions regarding phenomena in their surroundings. If left unaddressed, these misconceptions will obscure and interfere with students' future comprehension of more complex physics material. This study aims to identify the patterns of misconceptions among elementary school students on the topics of gravity and potential energy, evaluate the effectiveness of the diagnostic instruments used, and identify the contributing factors. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this systematic literature review analyses various scientific sources published between 2022 and 2026. The findings reveal consistent conceptual errors, particularly the assumption that mass affects the falling speed of an object and the belief that potential energy exists only in moving objects. The primary triggering factors include students' personal intuition, conventional teaching methods, and limitations in visual media. In conclusion, the regular implementation of tiered diagnostic instruments, accompanied by a shift toward technology-based learning models, is essential for overcoming these learning obstacles.

Abstract

Natural Science learning in elementary schools plays a crucial role in building students' scientific thinking skills. However, understanding basic optical concepts such as light, reflection, refraction, propagation, and shadow formation remains a significant challenge. This study aims to analyse the factors causing students' learning difficulties in understanding basic optical concepts through a literature review. The method employed was a review of eight scientific articles published between 2020 and 2026, sourced from Google Scholar and SINTA, using content analysis techniques. The findings show that students still experience misconceptions in optical concepts, particularly in reflection, refraction, and light dispersion. Learning difficulties are influenced by internal factors such as low prior understanding, limited abstract thinking ability, and learning motivation as well as external factors, including the dominance of lecture-based methods, insufficient learning media, limited practicum activities, and suboptimal use of diagnostic instruments. Efforts to address these difficulties can be pursued through conceptual change strategies, the Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) model, multiple representations, and the use of virtual laboratories to help students visualise abstract concepts in a more concrete and meaningful way.
