Abstract

This explanatory sequential mixed-methods study investigates the perspectives of 89 early childhood teachers in Sumatra, Indonesia, regarding environmental literacy. Quantitative data were collected via an online questionnaire distributed through Google Forms, followed by qualitative data gathered through in-depth interviews conducted via Zoom. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the quantitative data, while a thematic approach was applied to the qualitative findings. Three major themes emerged. First, teachers demonstrated a strong commitment to fostering environmental knowledge through experiential learning. They highlighted the importance of engaging children’s five senses and promoting active, reflective thinking to develop environmentally responsible behaviour that encompasses personal, social, and institutional dimensions. Second, key motivational factors for teaching environmental literacy included early instillation of environmental awareness, the cultivation of sustainable habits, nurturing care and love for nature, preparing environmentally conscious future generations, and supporting sustainability-oriented education initiatives. Third, the effectiveness of environmental literacy education was found to depend on both internal and external factors. Internally, teachers utilised strategies such as outdoor and play-based learning, project-based learning (PJBL), habit formation through place-based education, and digital media integration. Externally, successful implementation relied on collaboration with parents and communities, alongside institutional and governmental support. The study also revealed that teachers draw from ethnocentric, anthropocentric, and ecocentric perspectives when teaching about nature, indicating a strong sense of environmental place attachment. These insights underscore the need for contextually grounded teacher training, flexible curriculum development, and the production of locally relevant educational resources to enhance environmental literacy in early childhood education.

Abstract

The digital archiving of batik products in vocational tourism environments requires efficient image compression techniques that maintain critical visual information, including complex motifs, color patterns, and texture details. This study aims to investigate the application of Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) as a machine learning based approach for image compression in the digital archiving of batik products from the Sundhullangit Batik Vocational Tourism Village. An experimental research design was adopted using digital batik images obtained through direct image acquisition. The research stages comprised image pre-processing, image compression using a truncated Singular Value Decomposition model with varying rank values, and reconstruction of the compressed images. The performance of the compression model was evaluated using objective image quality metrics, namely Mean Squared Error, Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio, and Structural Similarity Index, while compression efficiency was measured using the compression ratio. The results indicate that higher rank values enhance reconstructed image quality, reflected by lower reconstruction error and higher structural similarity, but reduce compression efficiency. Conversely, lower rank values achieve higher compression ratios at the cost of reduced visual fidelity. Overall, the findings demonstrate that Singular Value Decomposition offers an effective balance between image quality preservation and data size reduction. This study concludes that the proposed method is suitable for supporting sustainable and high-quality digital archiving of batik products within vocational tourism-based cultural heritage systems.
