Abstract

The weed is a plant that develops in undesirable areas and harms surrounding plants. Nonetheless, this herb can be used as a source of organic material, as a soil coating to prevent erosion, and as a traditional medicine. Weed growth can vary depending on the weed’s characteristics and environmental conditions. The Selo region is a verdant tourist destination in the montane zone's highlands. The land clearing caused a change in the area's vegetation. This study seeks to determine the Montane zone's weed vegetation varieties, composition, and structure. It is also connected to the release of land in Selo as a tourist area. This form of research is conducted at three different altitudes (1.600m asl, 1.700m asl, dan 1.800m asl). The intercept-point and exploration method is used, as well as data analysis involving the determination of summed dominance ratio (SDR) values and diversity index analysis. Consequently, there are variations in the composition and dominance of herbaceous vegetation at each height. There are 27 species of vegetation, with Imperata cylindrica (SDR 55.67% and 27.73% at 1.600m asl and 1.800m asl, respectively) dominating at 1.600m asl and 1.800m asl, and Ageratina riparia (SDR 20.86%) dominating at 1.700m asl. The highest diversity of grass species at the altitude of 1.800 m asl (H' 2,17). The highest sorensen’s similarity index is at altitudes of 1.600 m asl and 1.700 m asl (SSI 52,17%). The ecosystem conditions influenced by abiotic factors and the management of ecosystems impact the diversity and uniformity of grass species in the mountainous region of the Selo Tourist Area.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of using biotechnology e-modules for eco-enzyme production, based on the SETS (Science, Environment, Technology, and Society) approach, on the problem-solving skills of ninth-grade junior high school students. A quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group was employed. The sample consisted of two classes, each comprising 32 students, divided into an experimental class and a control class. The main instrument was a problem-solving skills test based on Polya’s indicator. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA after confirming the assumptions of normality and homogeneity of variance. The results revealed a significant difference between the average posttest scores of the experimental class (80.562) and the control class (46.094), with a significance level of 0.000 (p 0.05). The R² value of 0.952 indicates a powerful influence of the e-module on the improvement of problem-solving skills. This e-module facilitates students’ contextual understanding of biotechnology concepts through the eco-enzyme production project, thereby supporting the development of 21st-century skills. The study recommends the use of SETS-based e-modules as a contextual, innovative, and applicable alternative to traditional learning in science education.

Abstract

ENLearning evaluation functions as an indicator. Assessment is an activity that involves the interpretation of measurement data in accordance with certain criteria or rules. An effective assessment instrument must meet the requirements including validity, reliability, level of difficulty, discriminatory power, and distractor effectiveness. This study aims to compare the results of the analysis of assessment instruments between classical test theory and the Rasch model on the assessment of Biodiversity material. The study was conducted in class VII at one of the junior high schools in Sukoharjo. This study is a quantitative descriptive study with random sampling techniques. The data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel (and Winsteps. The results of the validity analysis through the classical test theory were categorized as sufficient/moderate quality (5 valid) from the Rasch model analysis obtained good question quality (6 valid). The reliability analysis of the questions through the classical test theory was 0.458 (moderate) and the Rasch model obtained a person with a weak value (0.34) and a question with a good value (0.86). The level of difficulty, according to the classical test theory and the Rasch model, was distributed into three groups. The discriminatory power of the classical theory test was divided into 5 questions with sufficient value, 4 questions with high value, and 1 question with very high value. Then, in the Rasch model there were four groups of questions that could be identified, while for the person there was only one group. For the effectiveness of the distractors in the classical theory test and the Rasch model, most of them had shown good quality while a small number of distractors did not work. The Rasch model approach is considered better because it is more objective, easy to interpret the results, flexible, and statically strong.IDEvaluasi pembelajaran berfungsi sebagai indikator Penilaian merupakan kegiatan yang melibatkan interpretasi data pengukuran yang sesuai dengan kriteria atau aturan-aturan tertentu. Instrumen penilaian yang efektif harus memenuhi persyaratan yang meliputi validitas, reliabilitas, tingkat kesukaran, daya pembeda, dan efektivitas distraktor. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan hasil analisis instrumen penilaian antara teori tes klasik dan Rasch model pada assesment materi Keanekaragaman Hayati Penelitian dilakukan pada kelas VII di salah satu SMP di  Sukoharjo. Penelitian ini berupa penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif dengan teknik sampling acak. Data dianalisis menggunakan Microsoft Excel (dan Winsteps. Hasil analisis validitas melalui teori tes klasik dikategorikan berkualitas cukup/sedang (5 valid) dari melalui analisis Rasch model diperoleh kualitas soal yang baik (6 valid). Analisis reliabilitas butir soal melalui teori tes klasik sebesar 0,458 (sedang) dan Rasch model diperoleh person bernilai lemah (0,34) dan butir soal bernilai bagus (0,86). Tingkat kesukaran, menurut teori tes klasik dan Rasch model terdistribusi dalam tiga kelompok. Daya pembeda tes teori klasik terbagi pada 5 soal bernilai cukup, 4 soal bernilai tinggi, dan 1 soal bernilai sangat tinggi.  Lalu, pada Rasch model terdapat empat kelompok butir soal yang dapat diidentifikasi, sedangkan untuk person hanya terdapat satu kelompok. Untuk efektivitas distraktor pada tes teori klasik dan Rasch model sebagian besar sudah menunjukkan kualitas baik sedangkan sebagian kecil distraktor tidak bekerja. Pendekatan Rasch model dianggap lebih baik dikarenakan lebih objektif, mudah dalam menafsirkan hasil, fleksibel, dan kuat secara statis.
