Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model integrated with STEM on students’ collaboration and problem-solving skills. It employed a quasi-experimental method using a pretest-posttest control group design. The population included all seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Plupuh in the 2024/2025 academic year. The sample was selected through cluster random sampling, with Class VII C designated as the experimental group and Class VII D as the control group. Data were collected through tests, observations, and documentation. The data were analyzed using an independent t-test with a significance level of 0.05. The analysis revealed that the STEM-integrated PBL model had a significant effect on students’ problem-solving skills, with a significance value of 0.028 (< 0.05), because this learning provides a holistic, real, collaborative learning experience and encourages higher-level thinking. While the collaboration skills showed a significance value of 0.011 (< 0.05) because the learning process emphasizes group work in solving real problems, thus encouraging interaction, shared responsibility, productive communication, and positive interdependence between group members. These findings indicate there is an effect of implementing Problem Based Learning (PBL) integrated with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) on students’ collaboration and problem-solving skill. Problem Based Learning (PBL) integrated STEM allows students to broaden their horizons, discuss and collaborate in problem solving, encourage students to refine their knowledge through discussion, communicate in groups and respect each other when there are differences of opinion, critically assess group processes and work, provide feedback, and agree on the best solution, which directly improves various aspects of collaboration and develops competencies to address the complex challenges of their future.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of using the Lurik Pedan Klaten Local Wisdom Booklet with the Real World Problem Solving (RWPS) model to empower environmental literacy in VII students in science learning. This studi user a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of VII students at SMP N 1 Kebakkramat, selected using cluster random sampling. The research instrument used was a environmental literacy test with pretest and posttest and environmental literacy questionnaires. Quantitative data analysis used descriptive statistic, prerequisite test, and hypothesis testing using t-test.  The results showed that the Sig. (2-tailed) value was 0.000 < 0.05 with a significance level of 5%. The average knowledge test scores for the experimental class (73.9) and the control class (66.4), the average attitude questionnaire scores for the experimental class (34.4) and the control class (34.4), and the average behavior questionnaire scores for the experimental class (34.16) and the control class (33.9) showed significant differences. It can be concluded that the experimental class that used the Lurik Pedan Klaten local wisdom booklet with the RWPS model significantly influenced students' environmental literacy skills. The implications of these research results indicate that the application of the Lurik Pedan Klaten local wisdom booklet using the RWPS model can be a learning resource in science education to empower students' environmental literacy, so that students can more easily understand concepts through problems that are relevant to their daily lives.
