Abstract

This study explores the implementation of ethnoscience-based electronic student worksheets to enhance elementary students' understanding of ecosystem concepts and curiosity. By integrating local cultural wisdom with digital learning tools, the study offers a contextual and engaging approach to science education. Using an experimental pretest-posttest control group design, 60 fifth-grade students were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group utilized ethnoscience-based electronic worksheets, while the control group followed conventional learning methods. Data collection involved ecosystem concept tests and curiosity questionnaires, analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. Results revealed that the experimental group demonstrated significant improvements in understanding ecosystem concepts (mean increase of 22.9 points) and curiosity (mean increase of 1.2 points), compared to the control group, which recorded increases of 11.9 points and 0.6 points. These findings underscore the effectiveness of integrating local wisdom into teaching materials to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-life applications. The worksheets encourage students to observe, question, and explore, fostering both cognitive and affective learning outcomes. This approach not only strengthens conceptual understanding but also promotes cultural appreciation and pride among students. The study's novelty lies in its combination of ethnoscience with digital technology, offering an innovative and interactive educational resource that aligns with modern educational demands while preserving cultural heritage. It concludes that ethnoscience-based electronic worksheets are a valuable tool for holistic learning.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of social values in the Lampung folklore Legenda Lubuk Sendawali by K. Usman, and its potential in character education. This study uses a naturalistic qualitative approach with data analysis techniques using content analysis. Data were collected through documentation and analyzed in depth. The results showed 53 findings of social values categorized into compassion, responsibility, and harmony in life. The values of compassion include devotion (2 findings), helping each other (15 findings), loyalty (9 findings), and caring (15 findings). The values of responsibility include a sense of belonging (3 findings), discipline (2 findings), and empathy (4 findings). The values of harmony in life include justice (1 finding) and cooperation (2 findings), while the values of democracy and tolerance were not found. The novelty of this study lies in the in-depth study of social values in Lampung folklore, which have rarely been studied in previous studies. This study enriches the understanding of local cultural heritage and provides new insights into how traditional narratives can support character education. The findings of this study have significant implications for character education, especially in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum. Educators can create more engaging, context-based learning that promotes social, moral, and cultural values by integrating folktales into language learning.
