Abstract

This study investigates communal toilet models as an alternative sanitation soliution for densely populated urban settlements and their potential contribution to sustainable development targets related to safe sanitation. In many high-density settlements, limited land availability and infrastructure constraints prevent households from having private sanitation facilities, leading communities to rely on shared sanitation systems. This resarch applies a mixed-method approach combining quantitative and qualitative data. Primary data were collected from four sub districts in Bandung, Wes Java, Indonesia, involving 40 household respondents and 100 key informarmants during the period 2024-2025. Additional information on social, economic, and demographic characteristics was obtained through structured questionnaires. The analysis evaluates communal toilet construction models that consider land availability and water supply conditions, as well as two waste treatment scenarios designed for facilities serving up to 120 users. The results indicate that the second scenario provides greater flexibility in spatial adaptation and more manageable waste treatment for dense settlements. The findings emphasize that appropriate design, effective waste management, accessibility, and affordability are essential factors for improving sanitation services in high-density urban areas. This study highlights the importance of adaptive communal sanitation systems as a practical approach to expanding sanitation access and supporting sustainable urban development in densely populated settlements.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Project-Based Learning (PBL) model in enhancing student engagement and literacy-based creative thinking skills in an Environmental Chemistry course. The novelty of this research lies in integrating a structured literature review project as a core PBL activity to simultaneously strengthen academic literacy and foster creative thinking within environmental chemistry contexts. The study employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design with a mixed-method approach conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The participants were 33 third-semester students. Data were collected through classroom engagement observations, learning achievement tests, literature review project assessments, and documentation. Quantitative data were analyzed using Likert scales and percentage achievement indicators. The findings revealed a significant improvement in both student engagement and literacy-based creative thinking skills from Cycle I to Cycle II. Therefore, literature-integrated PBL is an effective pedagogical strategy to enhance both the learning process and student outcomes in Environmental Chemistry courses. Further research is recommended to investigate its long-term effectiveness, broader applicability across disciplines, and potential integration with emerging learning technologies.
