Abstract

This study examined the pedagogical and ecological significance of bunga tujuh rupa (seven-flower rituals) in traditional East Javanese dance through an ethnopedagogical approach. Previous studies have primarily documented the cultural and spiritual meanings of ritual flowers qualitatively, while quantitative instruments for assessing their educational and ecological values remain limited. This study therefore developed and preliminarily evaluated a 25-item instrument covering five theoretically derived domains: Ritual Knowledge, Flower Meaning, Spiritual Value, Environmental Preservation, and Ethnopedagogy. A purposive sample of 100 respondents from Ponorogo, Banyuwangi, and Lumajang completed the questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Cronbach’s alpha, corrected item-total correlations, Spearman’s rho, principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchical cluster analysis. Mean scores were high for Ritual Knowledge (M = 4.56, SD = 0.48), Flower Meaning (M = 4.37, SD = 0.51), Spiritual Value (M = 4.41, SD = 0.53), Environmental Preservation (M = 4.32, SD = 0.49), and Ethnopedagogy (M = 4.21, SD = 0.52). The instrument demonstrated high internal consistency (α = 0.945), with corrected item-total correlations ranging from 0.631 to 0.812. All ten interconstruct correlations were positive and significant (ρ = 0.603–0.968, p < .001), including a strong association between Environmental Preservation and Ethnopedagogy (ρ = 0.755). PCA of the five aggregate construct scores identified one dominant component with an eigenvalue of 4.18, explaining 83.6% of the total variance. The PCA and clustering results provide preliminary evidence of an integrated Ethnopedagogical-Ecological Value Dimension, while also indicating possible construct overlap. The findings support the use of seven-flower ritual knowledge as a contextual resource for biology education, ecological literacy, and cultural learning. They also inform conceptual design requirements for interactive e-book and augmented-reality media that require subsequent prototype development and classroom-based evaluation.

Abstract

The persistently low achievement of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) among Indonesian students, as reflected in PISA and TIMSS results, is partly attributable to the absence of test instruments specifically designed to diagnose weaknesses in analyzing (C4), evaluating (C5), and creating (C6), rather than merely identifying factual misconceptions. This study aimed to develop a HOTS diagnostic test instrument on the respiratory system topic contextualized within sustainable health issues (PM2.5 air pollution, smoking-related pathophysiology, and communicable respiratory diseases), and to examine its content validity, construct validity, reliability, and the resulting HOTS profile of Grade XI students at Nation Star Academy Surabaya. This Research and Development (R&D) study employed the ADDIE model and produced three parallel instrument sets (Set A, B, and C), each comprising six items (two multiple-choice items for C4, two multiple choice multiple answer items for C5, and two structured essay items for C6) that synthesized the Merdeka Curriculum Fase F Learning Outcomes with the Cambridge AS & A Level Biology Learning Outcomes. A limited field trial was conducted with 50 Grade XI Science students. Results showed very strong content validity (mean Aiken's V = 0.907). Construct validity, examined through corrected item-total correlations, sub-scale internal consistency, and exploratory factor analysis, provided initial but not fully confirmed evidence: the creating dimension (C6) proved the most empirically stable (item-total r up to 0.781), while analyzing (C4) and evaluating (C5) showed sensitivity to item format and stimulus heterogeneity (case specificity). Internal consistency reliability was acceptable for formative diagnostic purposes (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.623; McDonald's Omega = 0.642). The HOTS profile showed a declining gradient across cognitive levels: analyzing (C4) was high (72.00%), evaluating (C5) was moderate (46.67%), and creating (C6) was low (39.83%), indicating a gap in knowledge transfer toward argumentative evaluation and evidence-based creative problem formulation. The instrument is recommended as a formative diagnostic tool for teachers designing differentiated instruction, with the caveat that additional items per cognitive dimension and stimulus homogeneity are needed in further development to strengthen construct validity evidence.
