Abstract

Purpose of the study: Insect visitors to oil palm flowers, an important component in the pollination process and ecosystem services, are evaluated for their diversity in this study. The research explores their potential as a resource for environment-based learning rooted in local contexts within smallholder plantations, aiming to raise awareness and support sustainable education practices in the community. Methodology: Insects were collected using sweep nets, yellow pan traps, and direct observation. Identification was conducted using a Nikon SMZ445 stereo microscope and reference to entomological keys. Data analysis was carried out descriptively, focusing on species composition and abundance. An e-pocket book was developed as a learning resource. Main Findings: The results showed a total of 50 morphospecies of insect visitors on both male and female oil palm flowers. The number of insect species visiting male flowers was higher, consisting of 38 morphospecies belonging to 21 families and 10 orders. The results of the study were developed into a local wisdom-based pocket book focused on the diversity of insect visitors to oil palm flowers in smallholder plantations. The learning resource was validated by content experts, design experts, media experts, and students, with an average score of 81.7%, indicating it is highly suitable for use in environment-based education. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study highlights insect diversity in smallholder oil palm plantations, which is rarely documented. It also links ecological data with educational applications, providing a model for utilizing local biodiversity as a teaching resource in environmental and biology education.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the disaster mitigation-based semester learning plan for the general course of living environment studies at Tadulako University. Methodology: This is a descriptive qualitative study employing purposive sampling and survey methods using questionnaires. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Thirty respondents participated in the study. Main Findings: Findings reveal that semester learning plan development indicators require seminars and workshops with experts, faculty, students, and alumni. The semester learning plan integrates disaster mitigation-oriented learning outcomes using case methods and team-based projects supported by field practice. semester learning plan implementation aligns with lecturers' improvisation, and periodic reviews are recommended every three years. Novelty/Originality of this study: The study provides a framework for integrating disaster mitigation into the semester learning plan for general course of living environment studies, highlighting practical approaches like case methods and field projects. It advances the integration of disaster education into university-level environmental curricula.

Abstract

Bivalves are one of the molluscan groups that play an important role in maintaining the ecological balance of mangrove ecosystems. Their presence and abundance are influenced by environmental conditions, making them useful indicators of habitat quality. This study aimed to determine the abundance of bivalves in the mangrove ecosystem of Pinotu Village, Toribulu District, Parigi Moutong Regency, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed in this study. The research sites were selected using a purposive sampling technique based on the presence of suitable bivalve habitats. Sampling was conducted using the belt transect method at two observation stations, each covering an area of 500 m². Field sampling was carried out during low tide on 17–18 December 2025. Collected bivalve specimens were identified using taxonomic identification keys. In addition, environmental parameters, including water temperature, salinity, and pH, were measured. The collected data were analyzed using the species abundance index (R) and the Relative Abundance Index (RAI). The results revealed the presence of four bivalve species belonging to two orders and two families, namely Polymesoda erosa (39 individuals), Polymesoda expansa (19 individuals), Polymesoda bengalensis (38 individuals), and Anadara granosa (9 individuals), with a total of 105 individuals recorded. The species abundance index (R) value of 0.64 indicated a low level of bivalve abundance. The highest Relative Abundance Index values were observed for Polymesoda erosa (37.14%) and Polymesoda bengalensis (36.19%), both classified as highly abundant. In contrast, Anadara granosa exhibited the lowest relative abundance value (8.57%) and was categorized as having low abundance.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study examines the challenges faced by junior high school teachers in implementing science teaching standards, with a particular focus on issues related to instructional guidance, continuous assessment, and the provision of resources. It aims to identify gaps and offer strategies to enhance science education quality in Indonesian schools.Methodology: A mixed-method approach was employed, combining classroom observations, structured interviews, and questionnaires. Data were collected from 160 participants, including teachers and students from junior high schools in Mantikulore District, Central Sulawesi. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative insights were drawn from thematic coding of interviews and observations.Main Findings: The findings reveal that while teachers demonstrate competence in providing guidance and conducting assessments, significant challenges remain in creating conducive learning environments. These include insufficient access to modern teaching resources, limited training in continuous assessment methods, and overcrowded classrooms that hinder effective science instruction. Students reported that practical activities and hands-on experiments were often constrained by a lack of laboratory materials, impacting their engagement and understanding of scientific concepts.Novelty/Originality of this study: This research provides localized insights into the systemic and practical challenges faced by Indonesian schools in implementing science teaching standards. It uniquely highlights the interplay between resource availability, teacher development, and classroom practices. The study proposes innovative strategies for resource allocation, capacity building, and the integration of technology to address these gaps, contributing to evidence-based policy recommendations.
