Abstract

Effective learning must accommodate the unique needs of each learner. The combination of differentiated learning with PBL has not been widely revealed. This study aims to see the effect of differentiated learning through the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on student learning achievement. The research method used was a quasi-experiment using control and experimental classes. Data was collected through pretest and post-test. The control class used conventional learning, while the experimental class used differentiated learning with the PBL model. The results showed that using differentiated learning through the PBL model affected student learning achievement, with a sig value of 0.001 on the Mann-Whitney test. The average Normalized Gain (N Gain) of the control class was 0.32, while in the experimental class, it was 0.45. Both are in the medium category. In the control class, the N-Gain scores of individual students in the low, medium, and high categories were 52%, 40%, and 8%, respectively. The experimental class was 12%, 76%, and 12%, respectively. The improvement in student learning achievement in the experimental class is better than in the control class. Differentiated instruction provides access for students to be facilitated with their different needs, while with PBL, students can learn through contextualized problem-solving steps. Overall, it can be concluded that differentiated learning through the PBL model influences student learning achievement.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the density of Hydrilla verticillata in Lake Talaga and to evaluate its potential as a bioindicator of changes in water quality caused by domestic pollution. The study was conducted at three stations, where physicochemical parameters were measured, including temperature, pH, light intensity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, and the heavy metals Pb, Fe, and Cu. The results showed that water temperature ranged from 26 to 28°C and dissolved oxygen from 8.04 to 8.49 mg/L, indicating conditions that still support aquatic life. Heavy metal concentrations were below the established water quality standards. However, the pH was categorized as highly alkaline, and the highest turbidity was recorded at the station located near residential areas, suggesting environmental pressure associated with domestic activities. The density of Hydrilla verticillata varied among stations, reaching 607,333.3 ind/ha at Station II (high category), 180,000 ind/ha at Station I (moderate category), and 6,066 ind/ha at Station III (low category). The high density observed in the residential area indicates nutrient enrichment that may stimulate excessive growth of aquatic vegetation. This condition suggests symptoms of eutrophication and indicates that Lake Talaga is experiencing localized light to moderate pollution. Therefore, the density of Hydrilla verticillata has strong potential to be used as a bioindicator for assessing changes in water quality.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the occurrence and abundance of microplastics in the digestive tract of eels (Anguilla sp.) from Lake Poso and to implement the findings as an educational poster-based learning medium. A quantitative descriptive method was employed using six eel samples collected from the Pamona area. Microplastic analysis was conducted through organic matter digestion using 10% KOH solution, filtration with Whatman No. 42 filter paper, and microscopic particle identification. The results showed that all samples (100%) were contaminated with microplastics, with a total of 221 particles and an average abundance of 36.8 particles per individual. The identified microplastic types consisted of fibers (56.56%), fragments (23.53%), and films (19.91%), while pellets were not detected. The dominance of fibers suggests that the main sources of contamination were likely domestic and fishing activities around Lake Poso. The research findings were subsequently developed into an educational poster, which obtained an average feasibility score of 84% and was categorized as highly feasible. These findings contribute to scientific knowledge on microplastic contamination in freshwater eels and demonstrate the potential of local research findings to serve as contextual learning resources for improving students’ environmental literacy and awareness.

Abstract

This study aims to improve students' learning outcomes in Biology for Grade X students of SMK Manbaul Hikmah through the implementation of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through observation sheets of teacher and student activities as well as learning outcome tests administered at the end of each cycle. The results indicate that the application of the PBL model significantly improved students' learning outcomes. In Cycle I, classical learning mastery reached 85%, while in Cycle II it increased to 92%. The 7% improvement in classical mastery demonstrates that the PBL model is effective in encouraging students to think critically, collaborate, and solve problems related to contextual learning materials. In addition, students' activity and engagement during the learning process showed continuous improvement in each cycle. Therefore, the Problem Based Learning model can be considered an effective alternative for improving Biology learning outcomes of Grade X students at SMK Manbaul Hikmah.

Abstract

This study aims to identify teachers' efforts in arousing students' interest in biology learning in public high schools in Dondo District. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with research instruments in the form of observation sheets, questionnaires, and interview guidelines. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, questionnaires, and interviews. Data were analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions, while the questionnaires were processed descriptively to identify trends in each indicator of teacher efforts. The results showed that teachers had made various efforts to arouse students' interest in learning, with the highest achievement in the indicator of creating a pleasant atmosphere, followed by giving praise and varied learning methods, and efforts to relate the material to everyday life. Meanwhile, the indicator with the lowest achievement was providing feedback that had not been given specifically to each student. This finding was reinforced by the results of interviews that showed that teachers tried to create interesting learning through a variety of methods, concrete examples, and positive interactions during learning. This study concludes that teachers' efforts to arouse students' interest in learning biology have been effective, but the provision of feedback and strengthening of more equitable learning collaboration needs to be improved.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify mangrove species occurring in Kaili Beach, Boyantongo Village, South Parigi District. The research employed a descriptive method with a qualitative approach using a field exploration survey. Species identification was conducted based on observations of morphological characteristics, including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits, supported by measurements of environmental physical parameters such as air temperature (28 °C), salinity (32 ppt), soil pH (7), water pH (6.2), and relative humidity (72% RH). The results revealed that the mangrove vegetation at Kaili Beach comprised five orders, namely Malpighiales, Myrtales, Lamiales, and Sapindales, and four families, including Rhizophoraceae, Lythraceae, Acanthaceae, and Meliaceae. A total of eight mangrove species were identified: Rhizophora apiculata Blume, Rhizophora mucronata Lamk., Ceriops tagal (Perr.) C.B.Rob., Bruguiera gymnorrhiza (L.) Lamk., Sonneratia alba Smith., Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh., Xylocarpus moluccensis Pierre., and Xylocarpus granatum J. Koenig. The presence of these mangrove species indicates that the physical and chemical parameters of Kaili Beach remain within the ecological tolerance range for mangrove growth. However, the slightly acidic water pH (6.2) suggests that habitat conditions are not yet fully optimal.
