Abstract

Environmental issues are becoming increasingly urgent, particularly concerning the transition to environmentally friendly renewable energy. This study aims to map the environmental literacy profile of grade VI elementary school students in the context of renewable energy, covering knowledge, attitudes, environmental utilization, and interest in environmental issues. This descriptive qualitative study utilized an instrument adapted from The Scale of Environmental Literacy (SEL). The instrument comprises four main components: (1) knowledge, (2) attitudes, (3) environmental utilization, and (4) interest in environmental issues, each measured using a Likert scale with 10 statements. The instrument was validated by experts and tested on 10 students before being distributed to 91 grade VI students from several elementary schools in Palembang via Google Forms. The findings indicate that students have a good basic understanding of environmental concepts but face challenges in comprehending renewable energy in depth. Students' positive attitudes toward the environment were relatively high, though their awareness of plastic-related issues remains low, indicating the need for increased consciousness. Their environmentally friendly behaviors were generally consistent, albeit with some inconsistencies. Students showed a high interest in environmental issues but require reinforcement through real-world contextual learning approaches and active support from teachers and parents. These findings can serve as a basis for designing more effective and contextual learning strategies in environmental education at the elementary level

Abstract

This study aims to design multimodal digital materials on energy transformation in primary education in terms of validity, practicality, and effectiveness in improving students’ conceptual understanding. The study employed design-based research by integrating the Rowntree model for the planning as well as  development phases and Tessmer’s formative evaluation (self-evaluation, expert review, one-to-one, small-group, and field test). The subjects of this study consisted of 33 fourth-grade students at SDN 1 Sumber Rezeki. Data were collected through practicality questionnaires, expert validation sheets, and tests, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired-sample t-test, and effect size analysis. The validation results showed that the multimodal digital materials were in the highly valid category (94.7%). The practicality test in the one-to-one showed practical category  (71%-80%) and small-group evaluation stages fell into the very practical category (86%–92%). The effectiveness test showed a significant increase in learning outcomes, with the mean score improving from 53.42 (pre-test) to 82.90 (post-test) and an N-gain of 0.59 (moderate category) (t = 8.383, p < 0.05), with a Cohen's d effect size of 1.459, which is classified as a large effect.These findings indicated that the developed multimodal digital materials are valid, practical, and effective in improving students' understanding of energy transformation. This study implies that the integration of multimodal elements in digital learning materials can enhance meaningful and contextual science learning. It also serves as an innovative reference for developing instructional materials aligned with 21st-century learning.
