Abstract

The increasingly complex problem of plastic waste needs to be addressed with more creative educational strategies so that people become more aware of the importance of preserving the environment. This study aims to describe the level of environmental awareness among FKIP students at Syiah Kuala University as future 21st-century teachers, covering knowledge, attitudes, and behavior, and to measure the effectiveness of learning interventions in increasing students' environmental awareness. This research uses a quantitative descriptive research method with initial data collection. The instruments used included a questionnaire that had been validated by experts to ensure data validity and reliability, and the test results showed that the instrument was suitable for use in the study. The research results indicate that the overall level of environmental awareness among students is still in the moderate category. A total of 58.99% of students' knowledge falls into the very low category, and 46.07% of students' attitudes are also in the same category. Meanwhile, in terms of behavior, 48.88% of students actually showed a high category. This finding indicates an imbalance between the cognitive, affective, and conative aspects of students' environmental awareness. To measure the effectiveness of awareness-raising efforts, a post-test was also conducted after the learning intervention, which showed a significant improvement, with the average knowledge score of students reaching 79%, attitudes 85%, and behavior 89%. Therefore, a strategy is needed to improve the quality of education thru stronger integration into the environmental education curriculum

Abstract

Global warming is accelerating and is primarily driven by high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The food sector is a significant contributor to carbon emissions, particularly food production and consumption. Therefore, it is crucial to instill knowledge about low-carbon emission foods in students early by integrating this topic into curricular activities, such as the project for strengthening the profile of pancasila students (P5). This study aims to evaluate the improvement in students' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding low-carbon emission foods before and after implementing the P5 project. A descriptive quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method was employed in this study. The subjects consisted of 33 Year 7 students in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The findings reveal that implementing the P5 project, grounded in low-carbon emission foods, significantly enhanced students' knowledge, attitudes, and environmentally conscious behaviors. The project provided students with theoretical knowledge and promoted behavioral change through practical experiences
