Abstract

Scientific literacy is a crucial part of measuring the progress of an educational process. However, to improve scientific literacy skills, it is necessary to understand how scientific literacy can be developed in the learning process. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of improving students' scientific literacy through an inquiry-based learning approach. Data were collected through library research from various sources, including books, journals, and previous research findings. The results indicate that inquiry-based learning is effective in improving students' scientific literacy. This study demonstrates that inquiry-based learning can help students become more engaged and active in the learning process. It can also improve their critical and analytical thinking skills. This study found that inquiry-based learning methods still provide significant benefits in improving students' scientific literacy, despite several constraints, such as the amount of time required and limited availability of tools. Group learning, the use of lecture techniques, discussions, and technology such as online learning platforms are some of the suggested solutions.

Abstract

The Alpine region of Europe, which covers several countries including France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria and Germany, is characterised by its complex geology and significant geothermal potential. This research investigates the geochemical characteristics of geothermal water in the Alpine region, focusing on understanding the origin, evolution, and potential applications of these geothermal resources. Through comprehensive hydrochemical and isotopic analyses, we have identified key geochemical signatures that distinguish the various geothermal systems in the region. The results show that these geothermal waters are mainly influenced by deep magmatic processes, extensive water-rock interactions, and mixing of meteoric and magmatic fluids. Elevated concentrations of elements such as sodium (Na), lithium (Li), and chloride (Cl), as well as different stable isotopes, provide insights into the thermal and geochemical environments of geothermal reservoirs. Based on isotopic analysis oxygen (δ¹⁸O) and hydrogen (δ²H), the most of the geothermal water in the Alpine mountain region of Europe is of meteoric origin (derived from meteoric waters). The isotopic composition can reveal the mixing between meteoric and magmatic water. Intermediate values between GMWL and magmatic water compositions indicate such mixing, helping to understand the fluid dynamics within geothermal systems. This research underlines the importance of integrating geochemical studies in the exploration and management of geothermal resources in tectonically active regions such as the Alps.
