Abstract

Students' low chemical literacy and scientific attitudes in understanding chemical concepts, particularly in green chemistry, pose significant challenges in chemistry education today. Traditional learning models are often less effective in fostering 21st-century skills, such as critical thinking and problem-solving, which are essential for a more relevant and applicable chemistry education. This study aims to evaluate the impact of a STEM integrated with Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on students' chemical literacy and scientific attitudes in green chemistry. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the study involved two experimental classes and two control classes. Each group participated in pretests and posttests to assess their chemical literacy and scientific attitudes. The analysis revealed that the PBL-STEM model significantly enhanced students' chemical literacy (N-Gain = 0.54) and scientific attitudes (N-Gain = 0.46) compared to traditional learning methods. Although the improvement in scientific attitudes was more pronounced, the increase in chemical literacy was relatively lower, indicating the necessity for adjustments in instructional approaches to deepen students' understanding of chemical concepts. The integration of green chemistry principles within the PBL-STEM model effectively connected chemistry education with global environmental challenges while also fostering 21st-century skills such as critical thinking and problem-solving. This study concludes that the PBL-STEM model presents a promising alternative for enhancing the quality of chemistry education and preparing students to navigate the complexities of an ever-evolving world.

Abstract

The research was conducted with the following objectives: (1) to determine the literacy ability of chemistry teachers in West Nusa Tenggara Province towards the STEAM leaning approach; (2) knowing the supporting and inhibiting factors of the chemistry teacher's literacy about the STEAM learning approach. The research was conducted at A-accredited Senior High Schools in West Nusa Tenggara Province. The sample selection in this study used a purposive sampling technique with a total of 40 participants in 20 schools. Data collection include open question sheets and interview guidelines. The data analysis technique in this study uses the Miles and Huberman model with data reduction technique, data display, and verification. The result of this study the literacy of state high schools' chemistry teacher in West Nusa Tenggara Province related to the STEAM approach is in the medium category. The supporting factor for the literacy of chemistry teachers in State High Schools in West Nusa Tenggara Province is the existence of professional training and development such as training workshop, MGMP and P4TK. Other supporting factors are professional relationship and the ability to access internet media. The factors that hinder the literacy of chemistry teacher are the lack of training and professional development, the lack of ability to access the internet as an information tool in the search for literature and the limitations of school facilities and infrastructure and time allocation.

Abstract

This study aims to systematically examine the implementation and implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based media in chemistry learning at the secondary education level. Using  the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach which refers to the PRISMA guidelines, as many as 19 scientific articles from the Science Direct database  were analyzed qualitatively. The research focus includes the identification of the types of AI media used, the chemical topics supported by AI, the form of implementation in the classroom, as well as the pedagogical implications of the integration of AI in learning. The results show that the most widely used AI media is generative chatbots such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude, followed by immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). This media is used to improve students' understanding of concepts, especially in abstract topics such as atomic structure, molecular visualization, and organic reactions. However, a number of challenges were found, including inaccurate content, low digital literacy, ethical and academic integrity issues, and limited technological infrastructure. On the other hand, AI media also opens up opportunities for adaptive and personalized learning, increased student learning engagement, and teacher efficiency in learning planning. . This study recommends strengthening teacher training, ethical policies, and adaptive curriculum design to support the optimal application of AI in chemistry learning in the digital era.
